You dressed like a ****ing douche at the game. Plus, she was a Chicago 5 at best

Seriously the guys behind me did the Jared Goff during the afterglow and I was displeased. Hope you had fun despite the young people having fun.

The clinching game I was at was 1987.    Tanana blanked the Blue Jays 1-0 as the Tigers completed a come-from-behind sweep of the Blue Jays -- all 1-run games.    I went to all 3 of those games (and 2 earlier in the week).   Bleacher tickets.  Affordable. 

Mid bleachers, because of the overhang  couldn't even see Larry Herndon's home run (the only run of the game).  

What a weekend

 

Friday - Scott Lusader made a full-stretch  diving catch to save a run or two

Saturday.   Jim Walewander scored the winning run from second on a base hit

Sunday -  Last out - meek grounder to Tanana who flipped it to Darrell Evans for the last out

Who will be looking for managers next season

Chicago White Sox

Cincinnati Reds

 

(speculation on the rest)

Minnesota Twins  - after that collapse.........

Toronto Blue Jays  - they were supposed to challenge

Miami Marlins  - not Skip's fault   Free Skip

Colorado Rockies  - I find it hard to believe that Bud Black wants another year of this. 

The A's    - Did Mark Kotsay compliment the fans in Oakland?  Fisher will make him pay.   

 

 

Dear all of those teams, 

 

Chris Fetter is a terrible guy.   He never showers, he makes strange animal-like noises when he eats, he picks his nose constantly and has cooties.    You absolutely don't want to hire him.   Ewwww.   Tigers just keep him around because they feel sorry for him.

j/k sounds like the kids just don't know how to handle a real meaningful baseball game. Time to educate them!

Did Chas just describe the demographic particulars of the MLB target audience these days? And they’re winning.

I was in 323 row 17. Four rows from the top, which is probably why there were a lot of baseball dilettantes there.

You know, I hope the Tigers don’t treat this like a house money game. I think it does matter, at least on the margins, whether we go to Houston or Baltimore.

Plus they get a game at comerica if they win right?

With his being the bulk guy today, looks like Kenta Maeda is definitely out for at least the wild card round. I feel bad for the guy, but hey, gotta put together the winningest team we can.

Looks like at this rate, Maeda won’t be getting into any other playoffs series, either.

No. Just a very apathetic way to end the season getting hosed perhaps the worst team in history. Like, where's that fire that was there on Friday and before. Who wants to go into the playoffs with this attitude 🙄

Maeda has had all the chances in the world. I don’t feel bad for him. 

I feel bad for him because he was signed to come here and help make us respectable, and now the team is making the playoffs in spite of him, and that has to weigh on his psyche some. I would wish something like that only on bad people.

He seems like an awesome guy and is definitely a good teammate to take ownership of his struggles and accept the demotion to the bullpen.

 

However, from a competitive standpoint, I see no justification in keeping him for next year.  We already have 5-7 better options for SP, plus an additional 4-5 better options for long relief in the system.  Its time to let a newly fledgling franchise take chances on bounce back arms and for us to start moving forward with our youth.
