The 19 games after tomorrow that Detroit has is a brutal. That will decide this race I think. If we can get up 4 to 5 games during thta stretch then the series you are talking about will mean something. If we can't and Detroit conitnues to play like that have been we don't have a shot. Time will tell. But Ventura needs to shake this lineup up. Deaza, Youk, AJ, Rios, Dunn, PK, Lexi, Tank, Gordon. I would try that and see if it sparks this team. I know they will never push PK that low in the order, but that doesn't mean it shouldn't happen.
So far Detroit is 2-4 in that 18 game span I was talking about and we have made up 4 games in a week. Detroit goes to Boston next. Hopefully they conitnue to slide a little bit and we take advantage of playing the Twins and we can pick up another game or two.
