DANKS FOR NOTHING (Finally, I get to use it!)

FINAL PICKS UPDATE:
So, it wasn't exactly the offensive firebombing that I predicted, but the White Sox have indeed taken the AL Central from Minnesota behind John Danks, by the downright Twinsian score of 1-0. Of course, one wonders what would have happened if the RNC hadn't forced the Twins on a 14-game death march at the end of August. And I thought Republicans were OPPOSED to government interference! (Rim shot.)

Anyway, I'm giving myself four out of five points for a successful pick. It really could have been five, but when you predict that a team will slug its way into the playoffs, and they slug as little as humanly possible in the win that gets them there, well, your hands are tied, even when you're cheating. So it goes.

UPDATED TOTAL: 32 out of 40, which brings my grade from a B- to...well, to a B-. Lovely.

P.S. For those wondering about the title of this post, it refers to this older one.
