In my humble opinion, there has been a bit too much playoff talk on HH over the past week or so. For all you near-sighted fans, perhaps you should do a little compare and contrast of our schedule for the month of September with Texas' schedule.

Here is our schedule starting on the 11th.

September 11-13 vs CWS

14th @ NYY (make up game)

15-17 @ Boston

18-20 @ Texas

21-23 vs NYY

25-27 vs OAK

28 - October 1st vs Texas

For the entire month of September we play only two teams with losing records ( Oakland, KC) and only three teams who are out of the post-season push (Oak, KC, Seattle).

Now lets take a look at who Texas will be playing:

4-6th @ BAL

7-9th @ CLE

11-13th vs SEA

14-16th vs OAK

18-20 vs LAA

21-24 @ OAK

25-27 vs TB

28- October 1st @ LAA

The Rangers have to play only two teams with winning records and only ONE team with a playoff shot. Finally, our next to last series of the season is a 4 game series at home against the Rangers. That is going to be one hell of a four days.


Obviously the Rangers schedule is FAR easier than ours. I have complete faith in this team. However, September will undoubtedly show the grit of our squad and is truly a make it or break it month. 

W6G!
