Yeah, this month, and really the rest of the way is definitely gonna be a test. Probably not a lot of 5+ game winning streaks to be had going forward.
Think I read we have the 2nd or 3rd most difficult schedule in the AL going forward, so I'd be surprised if we make any gains. Though we will have several opportunities with Minnesota and Cleveland, though it could be a wash for everyone based on all the other teams we all have to play.
53 games left. What's the magic number? We've been a .500 team against everyone outside of the White Sox. Say we take 3 of 4 this weekend against Detroit, and play .500 the rest of the way. That would put us at 87 or 88 wins. Is that enough?

At one point in a few weeks we play 20 straight against teams that would be in the playoffs if the season ended today. If we go 10-10 over that stretch (big if) we are making the tournament.
