Must win game thread

[Coeurd’Alene J]

We work our way to first place again.

AND a matchup with our Nemesis the Houston Astros.

Time to beat the magic midget and his gang of striped cookie bakers.

MORE INSURANCE RUNS PLEASE!!!

WOw. How Cleveland has handled Detroit.
Division and home field totally within reach.

Only one back of the Tigers. If we win the division I think we will catch them and get the bye.

That would be sweet indeed my friend!
You were missing a car part the other day right?
I blew a water pump on 87 coming back from Yankee stadium area actually.
The serpentine belt came right off!
Luckily I was close to the off ramp when it shut down.
Crazy times and time for another car I might add.

Sucks.
Kia has approved the Warranty but they still don't have an ETA on when they will get the parts they need. It has been 3 WEEKS!
I am going to the Dodger game on Friday but my cousins boy friend is driving. 1st time to T Mobile since 2018. I have been to 5 stadiums to see than on the road since then.

Nice.
A sweep of the Astros would just be GLORIOUS!

Mariners win! We're HEROES!!!

Wilson actually did something, caught the Royals cheating.

Castillo 2 runs allowed in his last 3 starts.

Not sure Dan would have known bout it if it wasent for the coaching!!!!!

Would love it but Asstros are so lethal at home. Cant remember last time they lost a massive series at home. Mariners gotta take blood. Gotta end thier fun badly!!

[desbcoach]

Man talk about making a bum look good, 68 pitched thru 6

3.59 ERA for Kolek lower than Castillo but yeah 14 in a row shouldn't happen with this offense. 2 hits.

Of course he was rule 5 guy from the Ms

Their last big homestand they went exactly .500 at home. They are beatable. Plus no closer either. Take them walks work the counts get Brown into a hitters count. You get on take 2nd don't wait around. Keep them in the yard as well. A sweep in not out of the realm of possibility.

Detroit: 85-68 overall (46-32 home/39-36 road)
Nine games remaining:

• Three vs. Atlanta (70-83)

• Three at Cleveland (81-71)

• Three at Boston (83-70)

Of note: They were so dominant early in the season and seemed like a lock for the AL Central title and a top two seed; now they hold a 3 1/2 game over the Guardians in their division after just being swept by Cleveland. Detroit holds a one-game lead over Seattle and Houston for the second-best record in the AL.

Perhaps the best news is that Tarik Skubal looked healthy on Thursday and will make two more starts in the regular season to help solidify their playoff spot. The tiebreakers with Boston and Cleveland have yet to be decided. Detroit holds tiebreakers over the Yankees and Astros, but loses tiebreakers to Seattle, Texas and Toronto.

Doesn't seem that far fetched....if we take two from Houston I think the bye seems likely! Shit, why did I type that?
