Game 1 is Saturday at Cleveland.

Skubal should be rested.

He pitched Tuesday so normally Sunday would be his day. Not sure they want him going a day early.

Sure why not. We win with a young roster, win with a low payroll - maybe we can win without a manager.

Going into the season the AL central was thought to be the weakest division in baseball. Now we have 3 of the 4 teams left in the AL

2024 Detroit Tigers highest-paid players:
Javy Baez: $25M (season-ending injury.)
Kenta Maeda: $14M (left off playoff roster).
Jack Flaherty: $9.3M (traded).
Miguel Cabrera: $8.0M (retired).
Mark Canha: $7.7M (traded.)
Shelby Miller: $3.1M (released).
Andrew Chafin: $2.88M (traded).

Jackson Jobe’s outing, it was a positive for the Tigers going forward. After the HBP, he did nothing but induce weak contact. Many young pitchers would have lost their composure, and Jobe did not. Hinch can now have faith in him as the postseason progresses.

Alan Trammell celebrates with the team.

In the grand scheme of things, it probably worked out perfectly that Jobe got to pitch in a high pressure, playoff atmosphere, and the Tigers won. Jobe got some playoff experience, and he got to do it with the young guys that he will hopefully join next season.

What a game, and what a run they have been on. House money!

This, and in fairness to Jobe its not like he was getting barrelled.

In a five game series we may see Montero or Maeda instead of him though.

I am sure they will add Monetero. They better not add Maeda.
