Jace is drunk...lol

It's too bad the Tigers can't host Houston in the playoffs. I wanted to see the fans boo Verlander along with his wife and children.

Oh my goodness

They could... in the alcs. But JV may not make their postseason roster.

He should win it. He did more actual managing to get here than any other.

I agree he should win it but people need to realize who votes. Sportswriters are jerks and are bitter haters. Nothing they do or don't do surprises me.

Note that AJ was in the mix for the celebration.

If we did face JV in the playoffs, the secret is to bunt it to him

He's not starting in the first round. I saw the announcers in their game mention it.

It looks like they just doused Chris Ilitch. It was a smaller slender guy in a white shirt.  

That was Ilitch. What a great night for these kids.

I began this season with mild interest, that eventually escalated into despair, and then hope, then amazement, and finally tonight with gratitude.

The unexpected nature of this makes this particular outcome gratifying in ways that are incomparable in my 64 years as a fan. There’s been a lot of high points too numerous to recount, but this is really special and unequaled in how this team seemingly rose from the ashes.

What are the financial implications if any? Other than the boost in attendance for this week’s games, do the Tigers get any economic benefit from making the playoffs if they don’t host any home games? 

[RandyMarsh]

The last time the Tigers made the playoffs Jason Giambi and Derek Jeter were still in the league. The highest salary was 26 million in Zack Greinke(30 guys make more than that now) and AJ Hinch hadn't even started with the Astros yet.

Minny now down by 5 in the 8th. All this left to determine is if Det stays ahead of KC. Do we want Baltimore or Houston?

[RatkoVarda]

Twins just rolled over and died. LOL

[Tenacious D]

I’d rather play Houston.  Burnes concerns me.

I want to be on the bracket that the Yankees are on.  The Tigers beating Yankees in the playoffs is just fun.

The one benefit of playing Houston is that we wouldn't have to worry about any weather delays(barring something like Katrina or Harvey happening).

[Sports_Freak]

I just saw KC lost. We have the #2 WC seed.

[Motown Bombers]

If we played Houston, I wanted to start a Jake Rogers chant to let them know we won that trade.

This is the best team in baseball the last two months. Bring them all on.
