Tigers will take both home games though...Rangers had to squeek those 2 wins out.
It'll be 2-2 back in Texas...best of 3

Was puzzling seeing him out there..especially when your starter went pretty deep and your closer went 2 innings..it's not like you've used 5 bullpen pitchers already.chicago510;929430 wrote:That guy sucked. Biggest diff in this series is Rangers bullpen is awesome.
Leyland is great, but only 90% of his weird moves turn out for the better. The 10% that don't turn out look really, really stupid.

Rangers/Brewers....fun, get freaking hits when it matters....Braun, Hairston, K Rod, Weeks, Young, Hamilton, Cruz, Andrus, Feliz....and my all-time favorite Nolan Ryan as the owner. I love baseball and root for the Reds.....I'd root on the damn Braves but that didn't work out either. I hope Cards/Tigers doesn't happen....Rangers/Brewers atmosphere way better.
Tigers are good but just not wagon worthy. Cardinals are good but some effin team choked and let them in and I hate LaRussa and Carpenter.

I have to give StL credit, I didn't think their lineup or rotation were deep enough to make any noise in the playoffs. Imagine if they had Wainwright.

They have 11 run tonight...Molina and Furcal could've shared the pitching duties and won tonight.

The Tigers have been relatively healthy all year, now have to deal with injuries to two signifiant players...Young and Ordonez. The weather has conspired to limit Verlander. It's going to be tough to overcome this and a two game deficit.

Also not playoff chatter but the White Sox considered hiring Paul Konerko as a player/manager before going with Ventura (hopefully not already mentioned).gorocks99;930551 wrote:Not really playoff chatter, but ESPN is reporting the Cubs are close to hiring Theo Epstein
