Tigeraholic1 Posted August 9 Posted August 9 Comerica Park - Detroit, MI Listen: 97.1 The Ticket Watch: FanDuel Det Game Time Forecast: 87 Sunny Starters: LHP Yusei Kikuchi RHP Charlie Morton Quote
tiger2022 Posted August 9 Posted August 9 I think this has the potential to be a 12-11 type game with these 2 guys starting. They both pitched well their last start but the total is 8.5 runs and I would be surprised if at least one of the teams didn't beat that on their own. Quote

IdahoBert Posted August 9 Posted August 9 I no longer know what to expect, predict, or extrapolate, etc. My projections, hopes, or fears tend constantly to be thwarted by real outcomes that pay no heed to my fantasies. A former brother-in-law of mine once said, “Yew git watt yew git and yew don’t pich a fit.” I guess a broken clock is right twice a day and I think he might be right in this case. Whatever happens we’re going to get what we get. Quote

IdahoBert Posted August 9 Posted August 9 No Riley Greene in the lineup, at least the starting lineup, today. Quote

lordstanley Posted August 9 Posted August 9 Yankees beat the Astros. Houston is now 2 back of the Tigers, Seattle is 3 back. Quote
Motor City Sonics Posted August 9 Posted August 9 Greene just getting a sort-of day off today, hopefully. If it's a close game, he'll play at some point. Quote
IdahoBert Posted August 9 Posted August 9 So I’m wondering how much MLB teams are paying for the secret dossier on how to get first inning runs against Tigers starters? Quote

lordstanley Posted August 9 Posted August 9 Morton strikes out the side and has 5 Ks through 2 innings. Quote
holygoat Posted August 9 Posted August 9 Wait, did they announce Lou going into the HoF, or is Dan just talking stuff? Quote
IdahoBert Posted August 9 Posted August 9 I have nothing against an appreciation for the psychological and affective aspects of this game, but all of the chatter about “momentum“ rubs me the wrong way. I don’t think ball players or teams are empty vessels pushed around by statistical probability, but I’m not a big fan of the voodoo of “momentum“ either. Quote
