He should get a lot of votes. But KC lost 106 games last year.

But they are collapsing down the stretch and we are surging after the sell-off.

After noon, how quaint.

[lordstanley]

Not sure what the models say, but I now give the Tigers a better than 50% chance of making the playoffs.

To Foley, keep throwing them bowling balls. That was ****ing nasty. Damn

Agreed. Hinch should get a lot of votes. Who else? KC manager is the only AL manager that's competition. Just what Hinch did with 2 (!!!) starting pitchers is amazing.

He was very determined after yesterday. 

[Tenacious D]

7-2 over the last 9 games vs Baltimore and KC.  Totally exceeded expectations.

If Minny collapses and KC and Det both get in Quatraro wins it. If the Tigers miss Quartraro wins it. If KC collapses and Minny and Det make it, Hinch wins it.

[CaliforniaDreaming]

Come on...we all know that whoever is managing the Yankees will win it...

Seattle, once leading 5-0, loses 6-5 on a Texas walkoff. They’re now 2 games back of the Tigers with 6 to play, the Tigers hold the tiebreaker, and the Mariners’ next 3 games are at Houston. So hardly much of a factor.

I may watch that Red Sox - Minnesota game. I took a perverse joy in watching the Cleveland - Minnesota game Thursday. It was hard seeing Cleveland celebrate, but if the Red Sox win tonight they will be celebrating merely getting to .500 and they will be doing our team a favor by burying Minnesota.

In game two the Red Sox pitcher Crawford has given up 33 home runs.

It's really looking like the Tigers are going to finish second in the division.

33 homeruns in one game?  That must be a record.

If they wait until the end of the year and the Tigers make the playoffs and the Royals don't, then it will be Hinch.  I think a lot of writers mail it in early though.  This is not an award that matters to me at all though, so I'll be fine either way.

Foley getting back on the horse. Forgive me for being nervous here.

You worry too much about Foley.  There are lots of mediocre closers in baseball who blow games and usually they are just fine the next outing

I'm mean enough that I'd enjoy that...
