From Wikipedia: The biorhythm theory is the pseudoscientific idea that peoples' daily lives are significantly affected by rhythmic cycles with periods of exactly 23, 28 and 33 days,[2][3][4] typically a 23-day physical cycle, a 28-day emotional cycle, and a 33-day intellectual cycle. The idea was developed by German otolaryngologist Wilhelm Fliess in the late 19th century, and was popularized in the United States in the late 1970s. The proposal has been independently tested and, consistently, no validity for it has been found.

I had forgotten that bio rhythms were even a thing.

I’m glad they won, but the squandered opportunities they used to cash in on were really irksome in this game. Remembering how to score runs would be really good. Of course, run prevention as well. Glad Vest came through.

Mize on Friday, TBD on Saturday, Scoob on Sunday. Right now Casey has a 14–6 win/loss record. In the 1960s when I was growing up, a 15–6 win/loss record on the back of a baseball card looked damn good. I hope he wins his 15th game. In reality, I’d be happy if the Tigers just won full stop, but 15–6 has a symmetry to it that I find nostalgically pleasing.

Damn straight! We’re riding your coattails to the bitter end.

I’m glad we won, seriously glad we won, but I’m not taking much pleasure in it. That bases loaded golf swing strike out of Riley Greene’s is still pissing me off.

Never in doubt.

Win

Will Vest.

I didn’t want to say it I’m glad you did.

Whoa whoa whoa whoa what do the Guardians think they’re doing not having the guy pitching in the ninth pitch until he allows eight runs or something? Pull him after one batter?

I think I’m checking out for a while.

Was he golfing?

Thx Riley

Heck, no

Do something good Tork

Now I feel like heading to the bomb shelter one of the crazy people in my small town built in the 1950s.

I’d forgotten what this was like.

I saw the game started without me and I was going to sarcastically ask “where are my two runs?“ And now we already have them. At least Tork and Riley struck out so now things are back in balance.

I just clicked on the mlb.com app and the pregame show came up and Daniella was giving the parlay odds or what not, and when the Tigers were doing well, I could suffer through this, but now I just want to ask “What’s a nice girl like you doing in a place like this?“ I am in a really bad mood.

I think there’s a good chance this is on target. Was Verlander throwing as consistently hard as Skubal throws today 15-20 years ago? You can’t compare the stress on an arm back then with the stress received on an arm today. Assuming Skubal is going to produce at the elite level he has the last two years for another seven or eight years after this point is wishful thinking. He’s pretty much made it clear he’s going to the highest bidder. And the Tigers will not be in that echelon. I don’t think he’s the kind of guy who will make a home town deal. Does anybody even do that anymore?

A boot stomping on a human face forever. Roger Ebert had not yet passed away when he reviewed Battlefield Earth, and this is what he had to say about it: ”Battlefield Earth is like taking a bus trip with someone who has needed a bath for a long time. It's not merely bad; it's unpleasant in a hostile way.” This recent stretch of the Tigers is a very bad bus trip.

I might not follow this game tonight. I might do something more hopeful instead like watching L. Ron Hubbard‘s Battlefield Earth that has a 3% Rotten Tomatoes rating. I understand John Travolta weighs 300 pounds, that burned-out cities have electricity, and hangars full of jets, buried under 1,000 years of dust, not only fire up instantly but still have full tanks of gas. I need some optimism in my life.
