7 game home stand

[biggunsbob]

4 with the Twins and 3 with the Royals.

What will make you happy... I think they need to go at least 5-2 or better... That would be my hope. they need to start winning big at home..

 

[elrod817]

I agree. They need to win both series, hopefully we get a sweep in one. A little momentum before the All-Star Break and then pull away in the second half.

I want a sweep in Minnesota. Our SP are setup good. 2 with KC would be nice. They need to start winning a bunch at home.

4 game series are hard to sweep, so I'm hoping for 3 of 4 from Minny, and 2 of 3 from the Royals, but I'll be happy with 4 out of 7 on the homestand before the break which would put us right at .500 and hopefully a game or two out of 1st.

 

[packersfantheo]

7-0 or bust.

 

[Mitchrapp]

7-0 or bust.

Right on..

Anything less than 6-1 against these two bottom feeders is inexcuseable.

As long as we gain ground in the division race, I could honestly care less. I'd love to see 6-1 or 7-0, but I'm expecting 5-2 or 4-3 since this team is allergic to winning streaks.

This is probably true, but bottom feeders tend to give us fits.

 

[tomdalton22]

5-2 should be the goal, 6-1 would be great. I can't see two sweeps by this team right now, they are way too inconsistant.

 

[coulomb]

Given their momentum & matchups, I think they will go 6-1 & be 4 over .500 going into the all star break.

 

[tigermud]

Both KC and Minn have been hitting well lately, if the pitching can hold em in check we should be ok 5 of 7 or better would be my expectations/hope.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Now watch we'll go 1 and 6. Fk.

Best time to catch up

Detroit
4 vs Minnesota
3 vs KC

Chicago
3 vs Texas
3 vs Toronto

Cleveland
3 vs LA
4 vs Tampa

If the Tigers aren't in 1st or 2nd place by the all-star break (assuming Chicago and Cleveland don't play out of their minds), I'll definitely be disappointed.

Danny Knobler from cbssports agrees with you Grandy.

I know damn it..

 

[papacrick]

The twins and Royals both have winning records over their last 40 games and both teams score at a better clip than us.. Factor in that we can't score at Comerica and this sets up to be a pretty disappointing home stand. I'd say 3-4 is the best hope for this sad sack of ball players

 

[biggunsbob]

Very happy with the 5-2 after starting out 0-2 on the home stand. To bad Texas, and Toronto couldn't have pitched in and helped us in Chicago this week..
