If the Rox win, would it be considered a huge upset ? Or are they just so hot that it wouldn't surprise many.

Prolly just a big an upset as App State over Michigan. Maybe bigger. ROX luckboxed there and as an aside Red Sox clearly were the ones that leaked the Paul Byrd HGH information, LDO.

lol sorry I'm really baseball noobish outside of fairly basic bluejays related ball. Level ? Is it really that big an upset when you win so many games down the stretch and do everything at the right time ? Or just a big upset on paper looking at rosters/payroll.

rockies beating the red sox would not be a bigger upset than app state / mich. app state was such a dog in that game there wasn't even a line.

I hadn't actually looked at the forecast, I was going more on history. The forecast isn't too reliable that far out anyway. I think it's safe to say that game-time temperatures will be somewhere between 20 and 70.

It's baseball, it is impossible to have huge upsets on the same level of other sports, there is just too much variance.

Yes, level. App State was the defending Championship series champions. Michigan lost to USC in the Rose Bowl. Ahhhhh, nevermind I don't have the resolve to keep this up. I wasn't being serious.

It wouldn't be a big upset over the Sox, it'd just be a gigantic story given where they stood on Sept 1st.
