Where the hell did Oakland come from?

Any team sweeping another this time of the year, especially the Yankees, there's going to be a huge move in the standings.

 

If we hadn't blown that stupid Thursday night game, we'd be tied for first and in the wild card spot, too...despite the DET sweep, although they'd have the tiebreaker advantage with the 7-4 overall mark against us.

Oakland lost. Sox now tied for 2nd WC in addition to tied for division.

Indians just beat Tigers /Verlander 5-3. Sox in sole possession of 1st.

Both teams have pretty rough schedules over the next month or so - not a lot of easy series (Angels, Yankees, Rangers are all deck for both teams).

Great game by the Indians. That 7th inning must have been awesome. It's not often you get 4 runs off Verlander.

Tigers trailing 5-1 as Rasmus just hit ay 2 run homer in the bottom of the 7th.

 

Anibal Sanchez is chased after that in his Tigers debut. He went 6+ giving up 5 earned runs on 8 hits 3 walks 3 punchouts & gave up 3 homers.(Encarnacion, Escobar, Rasmus)

 

Tigers trailing 5-1 heading to bottom of the 8th. 3 more outs to score at least 4 runs. CMON JAYS!

 

To the 9th we go. Still 5-1.

 

JA Happ gets the final 6 outs for the Jays & the Tigers lose.

 

Sox up a full 2 games as of now, with a nice opportunity to add to it tonight.

It makes me wonder if the Tigers are in more need of a starter than the Sox.

When was the last time you saw a contender go get two starting pitchers at the trade deadline?

Not only that, what do the Tigers have left of value that they can trade and acquire what they need?

It can be done. Kenny just showed that.

If you're willing to take on money, and the Tigers always seem to be, you can get something for little player value.

Well, they also have Castellanos, who is their best prospect and one of the better prospects in baseball.

 

Very unlikely that they move him unless they want to go all out for a guy like JJ or Felix.
