Considering the Tigers' 5.19 team ERA, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say no.

The Columbus Clippers would dick punch that sad collection of crusty bitches they're running out on the field in Detroit.

Another dominant start by Kluber. 7 IP, 13 Ks.

According to that Bill James/Rob Neyer formula, he's now the front runner for the AL Cy Young award.

Bill james??? Sparky anderson called him a fat no nothing.

 

[dougplayer]

My vote Chris sale. Easy winner. Just saying.

Sweet. It's now a lock for Kluber!

4.57 ERA since July 27th. Sure seems like Detroit material right there. I can see why you like him.

So exactly what day will the Tigers wrap up the ALc like you so incorrectly predicted? For all the heart you claim Detroit has they sure have looked like a big pile of shit all year long.

A 4.57 ERA? Now that's what doug would call dominating.

The Tigers have a 0.1% chance of making the playoffs.

 

[Wamu]

So far only the Dodgers have allowed fewer R's (494) than the Tribe (511).

The Tigers have a 0.1% chance of making the playoffs.

According to who?

Baseball Prospectus and FanGraphs have them at 0.0%

If Jimmy Jam would have given the Tigers a preseason pep talk I'm sure they would have the best record in the league right now.

espn.com's MLB standings.

Well, they're eliminated for the Central Title and they're 13.5 games back for the 2nd Wild Card with nine teams ahead of them with 23 games left to play.

I supposed they're not mathematically eliminated yet, but holy shit, Detroit would have to be the only city to survive a nuclear attack for them to grab a wild card.

How is YOUR team doing, doug?

(PS - Will Brady be complaining about the air pressure in the footballs?)

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

Tom Brady. The michigan man...starts the NFL season. Greatness just hovers over him.
Watch him mow. Jus t like verlander.

Oh, shit.

This stuff is just too funny.

Yes, I would put their chances at Blutarsky's grade point average ... for the next two seasons as well.
