SUN Anibal Sanchez vs. Jose Quintana

 

Absolutely need to take 2/3 and send a message to the rest of the AL Central we're not going to be rolled over by everyone but the Twins.

 

 

Indians and Royals have a pretty big four game series starting on THURS in CLEVE.

Sanchez pulled from the rotation, looks like it will be Matt Boyd instead Sunday.

Thankfully we miss Michael Fulmer the way he's pitching tonight against the Angels, has really improved from his first 2-3 outings.

watched the game last night -- their bullpen is garabage

That has been Detroit and (while GM, Dombrowski's) Achilles' heel for nearly a decade.

 

 

Going to the game on Sunday...went to a Sox game last year in Detroit and Quintana pitched...not a very good game for him. Cespedes hit a slam in that game. Hopefully this game with Q is different. Tigers are struggling. Beat the kitties while they are down!! I'm hoping for a sweep and some good offense in this series (at least in the final 2 games when Zimmerman isn't pitching, especially if they can get to that Tiger pen early).

I would kill for Detroit's bullpen after what I saw in KC.

The Tigers' bullpen was more of a dumpster fire 3-4 weeks ago than ours ever was...well, let's just say even Bill James wouldn't have been able to separate them.

 

 

Logically, the next four games we should be cheering for the Royals because every statistical model has CLE coming out on top in the division.

 

In reality, I guess a 3-1 split in favor of the Indians would be the most desired result.

Detroit has shuffled their rotation a bit with Boyd joining and Sanchez banished to the pen.

That's why they couldn't win it all obviously

They better bomb Pelfrey. Zimmerman has been really good I can see being shut down that game. Verlander seems to be hit or miss the little bit I've seen of him.

Carlos Quintana?

 

Hahaha.

 

I actually make this mistake ALL the time and have no idea why.

 

Is it a mixture of Carlos Santana and Jose Quintana? I really have no idea why I keep doing it.

I'm sure it's a combination of Carlos Quentin and Jose Quintana. That Q will get you.

The Red Sox used to have a Carlos Quintana, and the above with players starting with Q. I've caught myself a few times, but have straightened it out the last year or so.
