Tigers vs. orioles Game Thread September 25

Tigers 4th is quiet, with only a BB to Pheralta, and 2 Ks looking & swinging by the usual suspects.

Are you high?

No, but I'm gonna be getting drunk here in a little bit.

I was being tongue in cheek, in the "What should the post season rotation be?" threads most posters on this board - all who posted in fact -were pretty down on Penny, and specifically hoped that Leyland wouldn't use him in the post season just because of his experience, so I was making a little joke on that.

That said, after Verlander all the Tiger starters are pretty hit or miss in my book, and when they're on the posters here say they're the next best thing to an Angelina Jolie BJ, and when they're off the posters here say they're the suckiest thing that ever walked.


After reading this now I want some cognac to go with the cigar.
 
O's begin to mount a rally vs Penny, first and second with no outs on a BB and single...

Vikings continue to overwhelm and keep the Lions off balance with bad field position and good defensive plays, now near the half...
 
uh-oh...Lions nearly lose the football on a Stafford fumble on ANOTHER sack...Yikes!!

I'd say after Fister it's hit or miss.

Yes, Fister has been the most consistently good of the rest, or maybe I should say the least hit or miss, so it makes sense he would be #2.

So of the other three, who is least likely to suck on any given day?
NO idea, all 3 are bad... But I would think Scherzer.. The funny thing is Porcello has been much better on the road than home, while Scherzer is trash on the road which we all knew.. They should just do a 3 man rotation IMO..
 
54 yard return on a punt by the Lions, + a 15 yard facemask penalty, the Vikes may score yet again before the first half is over, 1st on the Lions redzone 13 yardline

TD Vikings 20-0 ...Goodnight Irene...blech!!
 
Well, the last minute or so sure did suck...Orioles climb back in it and Lions go down 19-0 with Xtra point pending.
 
3-2 Tigers, Penny was not gonna keep the O's off the scoreboard for the whole game...meh.
 
3-3 tie game...things are going south in a hurry for Detroit teams this afternoon..Yikes x2!!
 
Just get Penny out of here now.. And wtf are the Tigers not destroying Matusz who's been beyond bad this season?

Well this football game should bring the team back down to earth and cold, hard reality, if they repeat their shitty performance vs the energized Vikings in the second half.
