Just a guess, Keuchel might be pitching the 8th, then maybe Astro's manager plans for Verlander to pitch the 9th?
Morton starts the 8th,

Yeah.
I was thinking...
Since the Tigers were negotiating to deal Verlander anyway...
I guess I could be totally bummed that the Dodgers didn't deal for Verlander instead of Darvish...

Verlander warming up what about Keuchel the lefty ? He should be fresher then Jv.

As I post a reply, Verlander is warming up in the Astros bullpen.
Justin thought he was going to go to either the Dodgers or the Cubs.
I don't think the Astros make it to the World Series, getting through the ALCS without JV.

Morton what a great job by him 4 innings . No way they thought he would do that.

Back to back game sevens go to the road teams . Cubs and Astros.
I was born in November of 1984, approximately one month after the Tigers won the World Series. So I can honestly say this is the first time in my lifetime I am legitimately happy to witness the winner of the World Series.
So happy for JV and the city of Houston. Awesome!!

Bitter sweet seeing Maybin and Jv get rings. Like that Houston wins a title and I guess it's ok to see jv getting a ring but it stinks it's not in a tiger uniform! !!

I'm glad a guy like Morton just did what he did ..Not a superstar. Endured injuries and hardships to get there and he really delevered big time..

Yeah, JV and to a much lesser degree, Maybin winning rings is bittersweet for Tigers fans, when their 5 postseason teams over the past 11 seasons failed fairly miserably.
The fact that the Tigers are now about as far away as an MLB franchise can get from fielding a contender, just makes it sting even more...sigh.

Definitely not.
I think, unfortunately, the Tigers have don't anymore have much of chance to be any good before the end of JV's career, and he ain't likely going back to the Tigers.
So now that he's not undealable, I guess I can hope he can land with the Dodgers, and help the Dodgers win rings the way Kirk Gibson did.
Kinda bittersweet...
