          I hope we don't see much of Penny in the postseason. He's capable of being serviceable in the long run but not the short. Man these guys have been unreal!!

            And serve what purpose exactly?

            Giving Verlander, Scherzer, Fister and Porcello back rubs in the bullpen before games?

              For them to win the world series they will have to stay hot for about 6-7 weeks. They peaked too early.

                Yup. Tigers are the best team this year that wont win a play off series.

                  That's kind of what I'm worried about too, but the Giants did the same thing last year and rode it all the way to the title.

                        I don't think so.

                        That won't matter, everyone starts somewhere. This momentum is enough experience.

                        Having Verlander go twice gives us the upper hand in every series.

                                  I'd feel much better about it if the Tigers' first-round series was best of 5 like it used to be.

                                    The Tigers have been absolute money recently. That comeback saved my over bet.

                                    As a Rangers fan, I hope they cool off before the post season starts.

                                      It is best of 5.

                                      power arms are notoriously bad on short rest in play offs

                                        Thought all rounds were Best of 7 now?

                                            Tigers are a good squad. I do think they are peaking a bit early.

                                                I really hope their pitchers can throw to a base this post season without costing their team the game

                                                and over

                                                      Lots of ppl were on Chi to kill the streak. The ppl that played them were full of smiles in the 9th inning, lol. Just goes to show when a team is hot you can't take away their confidence. They've come from behind a few times.

                                                        Verlander has been hot for about 23 weeks. They may not win every game from here on out but this team has swag and the best pitcher in the AL. I don't see CC or Lester beating Verlander in game 1 or 5 if the Yanks/Sox make it that far.

                                                          That won't matter, everyone starts somewhere. This momentum is enough experience.

                                                          Having Verlander go twice gives us the upper hand in every series.
                                                          loool... yea right thats how the season work yankees phillies and tigers feast on all the bad teams then can't hit good pitching in the postseason.

                                                              I'd take Justin over anyone right now. To me, CC isn't even on the same level as him. But Yankees got a very strong offense, the Tigers bats will have to really step up to beat them.
