Bring on the Tigers!

It's going to be Detroit at home in the ALCS! Let's make it happen!

 

[Stinky Britches]

are we the underdogs because of verlander?

 

[romeo212000]

Maybe in game one. I think we only faced verlander once this year. But he has to pitch in our park Saturday. And our hitters usually rise to the occasion against the aces with a good game plan.

Good luck, guys! The Tigers are coming to town!

Should be a good series.

last time I checked the Yanks had a shitload of intangibles in their favor.

I expect this to be a tight series.In Conclusion-Fuck the fucking Yankees.

I definitely agree. How awesome is it that neither the yankees or red sox will get to even sniff the world series? I'm saying Texas wins in game 7.

Verlander and C.J won't be as a lopsided Matchup as the Media will have it.

Calvin Johnson plays for the Lions.

Calvin Johnson plays for the Lions.

That means him and Andy Dufresne have something in common.

I am saying Detroit in 4 (but don't listen to me, I'm a shameless homer). No Yankees or Red Sox? How will we ever survive?

Well I'm a homer as well. It would have been easy for me to say Texas in 5, but I was trying to be fairly objective lol.

To be Ojective would mean saying the Rangers are a little better team and the Tigers have gotten a lot of lucky breaks this year. The Rangers should be the favorite and the Big D will beat the former Big D. However, in a seven games series any team can win.

Now if you were a shameless homer you would say Rangers in 4.

Let's have a great series and a little harmless banter. The Dallas Metro area is awesome and you guys have a beautiful ballpark (so do we)

Looking forward to it. I am betting this will be one hell of an ALCS.

Hopefully without PHL as well and ESPN crumbles.

I like Detroit's chances. Texas had problems winning at home, and Detroit just took 2 of 3 in New York. In the past, the Tigers had trouble winning on the road but apparently not this year.

I'm going with Tigers in 6.

Actually, Texas has a better home record than Detroit. The difference may be in starting pitching. The Rangers pitcher who has fared the best against Detroit this year is in the BP.

Yeah, Texas tied for 2nd best home record. Granted it was only 2 games better than DET at home, but still tied for 2nd.

And recall that we haven't been completely healthy for any of our regular season games against Detroit, and our bullpen has improved greatly since our meetings. At any time we can pull our Tiger killer (Alexei Ogando) out of the bullpen.
