Unless Woo was deliberately being coy to throw us off, his post-session comments and tone yesterday didn’t strike me as someone who would be ready even by then. More like Game 4 or 5 if necessary. But we will see. https://sports.mynorthwest.com/mlb/seattle-mariners/seattle-mariners-bryan-woo-positive-throwing-session/1824127

So the remaining 8 teams are: Toronto Seattle New York Yankees Detroit Milwaukee Philadelphia Chicago Cubs LA Dodgers This to me feels like a just result, the proper eight teams taking the season as a whole.

That’s great, I hadn’t heard that. Here is the radio clip. So I didn’t recall it exactly right, but the gist. Pee Wee said that pitching coach Johnny Sain would watch Mickey’s bullpen warmup and report to Mayo Smith. If Mickey looked a little off, Pee Wee speculated the Tigers might have a reliever up and throwing right from the outset.

Interesting that in the pre-game show to Game 7 in ‘68 (available on YouTube), Ernie and Pee Wee Reese stressed that Mickey would be on a short leash but might go a few innings.

But now back to back HBPs with 1 out and the game is in the balance.

Oh wow, horrible call in Chicago right now. Padres down 2 in the 9th, 0 on 0 out, Boegarts absolutely drew a ball four on a full count pitch but it was called a strikeout.

Has that been confirmed? I was counting on him going on 4 days rest on Sunday and then again on 4 days rest on Friday for a Game 5 if necessary.

Party time! Come on everybody get down get with it!

So I guess Keider Montero will start Saturday?

MLB Network is in there now.

But selfishly, works for me, road trip!

Dan D’s call of final out. Tigers Eliminate Guardians.m4a

Seattle bound!!!

2 down, 1 to go!

1 down, 2 to go!

He really whipped it.

Are you kidding me?

Well, Ramirez can’t be the tying run.

Stop with this Ole Ole singing crap.

“Tigers threaten but do not score”. x100

Cleveland Butterfingers. 1-0 Tigers.

Only 1 homer by Tigers hitters in the past 5 games.

Flaherty looked better than Cecconi did in the 1st inning. Scoreless after 1.

I’ll take my cue from a man who knows his team way more than any of us do. AJ Hinch showed us today he has no confidence in his #2 pitcher and no confidence in supposedly our #1 hitter. That, and the Tigers’ track record of losing one big game after another the past 3 weeks, points to a 5-2 loss on Thursday. I will watch and root, because Tigers playoff baseball is always better than no Tigers baseball, but my expectations are low.
