I think Hinch is confident about playing in Houston. He knows where the bodies are buried. 

And the garbage cans are stored.

So they’re flying out there immediately today, I’m sure. When it’s an off day, can the opposing team go to the ballpark? Familiarizing the guys just brought up who’ve never played there before with the ins and outs and quirks of the stadium might be helpful.

Hinch clearly wasn't playing to win with the pitching line-ups. Maybe the brain trust had decided they wanted Houston instead of Baltimore.

Or maybe there’s a more strategic reason. 🤔

Getting the early game sucks in my opinion.

Yeah would've liked to have a night game but given our lack of national star power I kinda figured we'd be one of the matinee games.

Who would have thought Cleveland, KC, and Detroit would comprise half of the 2024 AL playoff participants? BTW, the Tigers finished 20-12 against the AL East. Been a while.

It's OK.  He'll get another shot next year.  

Yup  - they have to pay him so he will get every chance to earn his money if he can.

Given they have two good LHP starters and three more in the bullpen, I'm not sure if I'd agree with that.

but you know they have gamed out every individual match-up and pitch type vseach hitter in every possible inning so it might not look like the simple 1st order estimate once they are through.

I think they wanted to win, but didn't want to disrupt their playoff plans.  I would guess Hinch is not happy that they gave up 9 runs to the White Sox.

I think the later games going to the NL are simply a matter of not knowing who some of those teams will be until the conclusion of Monday's doubleheader.

I don’t mind early afternoon games that much. Baseball is better on radio anyway.
