A four game sweep in April could make a big difference at the end of September. I like the idea of pedal to the metal.

Thank you both @chasfh and @Tiger337 These are kind of insights I was looking for. Ten days in a row +3 more, that’s a lot of days to get sore, to get worn out, to sprain an ankle to pull an oblique. I can see how it would seem like a grind. The good thing is that all of this is happening within a 10 game homestand with one off day sandwiched in between it all and that might tilt thing in the Tigers direction.

Is there a chance AJ might not field the “A Team” tomorrow because they will be playing their 10th game in 10 days with three against San Diego starting Monday? Maybe hoping the pitching will stymie KC and the Tigers can scratch out a couple runs to win? But with only 13 position players there’s not a whole heck of a lot of shuffling he can do.

Our meat and potatoes to fatten up on.

Yeah, I looked it up. He’s actually pretty good. I thought it was Dan and Dan was just talking fast and then Bobby called him Greg and I had to do a double take.

We have one of the best pitchers in baseball going up against KC on Sunday, but four-game sweeps don’t happen that often and the Impersonal God of Mathematical Probability might have something to say about tomorrow’s outcome. But I hope not.

When I first heard Greg Gania’s voice on the radio I thought it was Dan, but it sounded like Dan was hyper excited and talking fast like he’d just snorted a Tony Montana sized pile of Coke. Great game!

Tork is an OBP hero!

He has a strong arm

Substitution Pitching Change: Daniel Lynch IV replaces Seth Lugo. Now that’s the name you’re expected to live up to.

32,000 Saturday afternoon attendance. Nice!

Sir Zach singles.

Tork is a changed man.

He Weavered it.

Dingler wants us to forget Lance Parrish. I always thought Lance had a great name. He sounded like an Old West gunfighter.

I stole it from Sherwood Anderson, but it’s been said by lots of people. 😉

Who’s the guy taking Dan’s place today?

I believe in eating my small sample ice cream before it melts.

We have scored the third most runs in the AL and allowed the fewest runs in the AL. This seems like a pretty good recipe for success.

We know this team pretty well, so we are aware of its imperfections and fret about them — every astute and highly focused fan base is like this — but we’ve got a decent record, we somehow manage to score runs pretty frequently, prevent enough being scored against us, and are not a team to be taken lightly. Yes we have stars, but we get more out of our entire 26-man roster than other teams do. This didn’t just happen it was done on purpose.

Darn you heck for reminding me. 😉
