That escalated quickly!

if Minnesota goes 9-9, the Tigers need to go 13-5.  Gotta pick those games up somewheres.  Hosting Colorado and their dismal 22-53 road record is an opportunity to do that.

Skubal is on track for 4 more starts including Thursday; not sure they can squeeze a 5th start this year from him. But could move him a round a bit, but as of now, he is pitching a game in KC which is most important series

While I do agree KC is the most important series, I would love to see him face Baltimore twice so they can see what potentially could have been if they were really willing to go for a title.

IDK, If I'm managing him I just keep him on his schedule - don't do anything that might cross him up physically  or mentally.

Oh, I definitely do as well.  I'm just saying as a fan.  The Orioles had an opportunity to go big and have a great chance to separate themselves, but were unwilling to part with what it would take.  And while they still have as good a chance as about anyone in the AL, they have floundered since the deadline and their pitching has been a major reason.

 

I'm extremely thankful we still have Skubal for at least 2 more seasons.  I would have had a hard time saying no to Holliday, Bassillo, plus 1-2 more prospects though, but it would have taken that to have any inclination of moving him.

Well, there's always that chance for meeting in the playoffs.

Have any of the Willi Castro superfans checked his stats recently?

Quote

Willi Castro, an All-Star in the first half, has batted .173 with a .539 OPS in 24 games, striking out in 30 percent of his plate appearances.
