Twinkies with yet another extra inning collapse.
They had the team formerly known as the Indians by the balls last night, then they loaded the bags in the tenth, and couldn't seal the deal.

Cleveland knows how to take care of business though.

Hey, I'm rooting for the Tigers too, as long as it's not at the expense of KC.
If Detroit does get in, most likely they'll get Baltimore in the WC series.
And Baltimore is floundering big time right now, this is exactly when you want to face the Orioles.

**johnnyvegas13** · 09-19-24, 04:34 PM

Nice Nash I wasn’t even looking ahead to the playoffs matchup but I will take Os

we just took a series off them

**stevenash** · 09-20-24, 10:51 PM

Baltimore croaked the Tigers 7-1.

I'll defend Detroit here; they haven't lost two consecutive games since September 4th.
Tigers were on a 10 and 3 run going into tonight's action, and it's difficult in baseball to maintain that kind of heater.

Johnny V. asked me a couple of weeks ago if the Tigers had a chance to make the playoffs.
I told him they did, but the chances are very thin as they would have to pretty much run the table to catch not one, but two teams.

The Twins actually pulled off a clutch win, they beat the Red Sox in twelve innings.
I would love to see the Tigers and the Royals advance, but that may be the dagger.

KC lost a squeaker to SF 2-1, but Detroit is chasing the Twins, not the Royals.

Tigers are two games behind the Royals. and remain one game behind Minnesota, with eight games now remaining on the docket.
A six and two finish is imperative for the Bengals and pray both Minny and KC go at least three and five down the stretch or worse.

On a side note, Todd Zola just tweeted out an amusing tweet that pretty much holds true.
Zola tweeted "Every time somebody does a promo on today's new-fangled math it takes longer to explain it than to do it the old fashioned way.

So true.

w royals free falling again right now

True, reason being injuries to the middle of the lineup.
That's not an excuse, as each and every team suffers key injuries, but that's the reason.

I think between twins 2nd half slump and royals mini slump tigers will find a way

From your lips to God's ears Johnny.

*off topic*
I'm on under 55 in the Kansas - West Va. game.
IMO that total should be more like 49, and I hate betting the under.

**johnnyvegas13** · 09-21-24, 02:10 PM

I will take a minute chug an football and tigers win today

my lips to gods ears right nash

**johnnyvegas13** · 09-21-24, 03:01 PM

2nd time this year for West Virginia

I guess lightning does strike twice …

**johnnyvegas13** · 09-21-24, 03:23 PM

That West Virgina-Pennsylvania region is notorious for freaky weather, and equally notorious for their 140-proof moonshine.
You ever watch that Moonshiner series on Discovery.

Those hillbillies know the moonshine business inside out.
They make beau coup money off of that, and don't think about crossing those West Va. hicks, they'll shoot you where you stand and bury you in those mountains where the authorities would never find the body.

Jesus God man, the Royals are killing me.

**Itsamazing777** · 09-21-24, 06:18 PM

How did the tigers escape that?

The royals might not make it. It would be an epic collapse

**Itsamazing777** · 09-21-24, 06:36 PM

Tigers last 3 games vs white Sox is enormously huge vs twins and royals last 3 games

Twins have a brutal double header at Fenway today.
That's a tough park to play in as visitors.

I'm talking historically, I realize the Sox are having a down year.
It's not easy to walk in there and take two games.

Early 12:30 pm in Boston.
Here's the plan, I'll stream the Twins game on my desktop, NFL on the big screen.

Ally said to me last night, "I'm proud of you, I thought with this extended KC losing streak you'd have a relapse"
Six years sober this past Labor Day LB.

I was a few weeks ago about the Padres when the Mets, Braves and Dbacks were not losing...things looking better now....

Hope to see you in the World Series, pal

Nash I was thinking same when I saw it got delayed

the double header tmr will b brutal

**stevenash** · 09-22-24, 12:40 PM

3-0 Red Sox bottom third.
I drafted Pivetta as my fourth starter.
The dude can be nasty, there's no middle ground with him, he's either awful, or filthy.
Boston jumped Lopez early, Casas fresh off the DL, hit a three-run monster in the first inning.

I may have to move from MPLS to Detroit.
Sad situation here in MN.
