At this point of the season it's hard to argue this. But I'm sure a few here will.

People have been calling every game for the last 2 weeks "must win" games.

1 back or 3 back with 16 to go.

must win!

 

[zonietigerfan]

Oh this is a must win for sure. If we lose it'll take a mini collapse by the ChiSox or a really, really long winning streak by us. Either is possible, but today is big. Real big.

We going to not make this bum look like cy young again today?

1 or 3 is huge, must win for sure. Radio pregame guy says if we win today we will go on to win the div, if we lose we won't. I might have to agree with the added condition that we'll have to not suck against Oakland as well. Jose blowing that yesterday was crushing should be playing for 0 or 2 today and not 1 or 3. Even before yesterday I haven't been too enthusiastic about Valverde this year. When you throw 95% FB it's only a matter of time before you start getting smacked around.

Its a huge game

 

[coulomb]

Hope its a curly fries day.

 

[gotime909]

For the next 3 weeks I'd just really like to see the best 9 guys play regardless of pitching matchups. Dirks should be in today over Boesch IMO.

I didn't like him last year even though he was perfect in saves. When you give up as many hits, walks and runs that he does it will eventually come back and bite you in the ass. He was lucky last year.

Lets do it boys, would anybody argue with the Tigers scoring early and often and just cruising to an easy victory for a change?

 

[biggunsbob]

Great start.. jeez..

 

[tigermud]

Awesome 7 pitch inning start for cy

 

[tigermud]

That damn Youkillis can someone please brush him off the plate a few times.

 

[biggunsbob]

i sure would like a 3 spot or more..

 

[gotime909]

Time to move Cabby to SS!

 

[coulomb]

princes ankle looks good.

 

[gotime909]

Come on Peralta, do something productive for a change.

Nevermind, the hack strikes again.

 

[biggunsbob]

OMG JP is so freaking slow...
