  1. The standings lie. We're actually 4 games behind the Twins because of the tiebreaker. With 17 games to go. We <could> catch them, I mean, how many games were we out 17 games ago? Around August 23rd?
  2. Must win. If we win, does anyone think it may be a good idea to give Skubal an extra day of rest and use him against Baltimore? Those 3 games are going to be a....challenge.
  3. Davenport....ugh. a lot of injury history. I hope he's OK to go.
  4. If it's a major leaguer, he would have to be team controlled for several years. Otherwise, just keep Skubal.
  5. Trump just said every single poll says he won the debate. Is this what they're telling him or is he just delusional? Maybe both?
  6. That's why I could see Skubal being dealt this winter. I don't want him to be dealt but his stock would be higher with 2 years of control and while he's healthy. Especially with the Tigers history of developing young pitchers and the reclamation of veteran pitchers. If we can get some "can't miss" prospects for him....
  7. The Tampa way. Talented players get too expensive? Trade them for prospects and always have fresh talent to replace them.
  8. It's like picking up a 3rd string running back and stashing him on your bench in fantasy football "just in case." 😅
  9. Win tonight and it will be a sweep with Skubal going tomorrow.
  10. He's a huge difference maker. Maybe the Tigers MVP?
  11. And have money for down ballot candidates. Very important.
  12. Remember about 3 or 4 weeks ago when Parker Meadows got hot (longer?) and we said he couldn't possibly keep putting up those numbers? Well, he is. Against both LH and RH pitchers.
  13. May be the reason for their record. They didn't seem to put up much of a fight. Poor pitching, poor defense and no threats at the plate. In April. May and June, I said the Tigers will get shut out after scoring so many runs but these hitters are all hitting at once, the same as they were all slumping at the same time early in the year. Remarkable.
  14. Rockies quitting...
  15. Rockies just going thru the motions after they fall behind by 5 runs. Just playing out the season...
  16. Zero chance? I would say a 5% chance.
  17. And there's always the possibility Skubal gets traded this winter. After he wins the Cy Young, the price goes UP!
  18. I like his quote where he says he doesn't expect that game to be his career high. Or something to that effect.
  19. Somebody asked if Levi played? Not sure if this is true but it looks good;
  20. The Rams had a pretty good game plan, mostly quick passes. Short but counting on yards after catch. It almost beat us with our missed tackles. I get the feeling Campbell decided to just play to our strength in OT. Just run the ball down their throat. He knows the strength of his team is the OL.
  21. I just saw the score of the Angels beating the Twins last night. The Tigers are 3 games out of the final wild card spot. Meaningful games in September!
  22. Can you imagine if they get immunity?
  23. Yeah, college rules are too much like hockey shootouts, like unnatural. I really don't like either. Chris has some good ideas, my only request is a way to eliminate the possibility of ever having a tie. There's nothing I dislike more than NFL ties.
  24. My FF team has McCaffrey. I didn't catch it in time, even though there wasn't anyone else I could have played. I lost...
  25. They could always do what they do in college.
