Pretty much the lineup you would expect to see the Tigers trot out against a Rangers left-hander Derek Holland. It

Need a Tigers win after Michigan got dominated by MSU..

 

[justinrose74]

Good lineup. I hope Cabrera batting 3rd; I hope that stays into next year.

 

[kalinecountry]

Look for Rick Porcello out of the bullpen tonight if Tigers need a reliever before 7th inning. Leyland says that's his plan.

 

[johnny2x2x]

Now that the football game is over Spartans and Wolverines alike can root for the Tigers. Can't wait.

 

[manchild98]

Let's just hope this isn't the last game thread of the season.

 

[hellifino]

don't Jackass Leyland learn anything, Jackson has 18 Ks in the post season and 4 Thursday. how anyone can think this guy can manage is beyond me, if we win anything it'll be because of D.D. and not Leyland, Leyland has tried time and time and time again to screw up a lineup, if anyone else was managing we'd a have the Central locked up in early Sept.

My liver can't take Michigan and the Tigers both losing today.

Yeah, I need a Tiger win tonight to help me get over my broken heart from this morning.

He could be a bigger jackass and think Santiago is a better lead off option.

Leyland on bullpen: It's going to be Scherzer, Porcello available, Coke, Benoit and Valverde. Schlereth maybe against left-handed hitter.

great lineup minus the whole jackson thingy you cant really change at this point. I guess leyland realizes were going to need to go score a lot to win. Not so much cause of our pitching...but cause of their lineup. Gotta score a bunch tonight to keep the season going. Go tigers!

Santiago is hitting .286 compared to .162 with only 7 Ks compared to 18 in the playoffs.

Therefore he is, he would be a better leadoff hitter. I saw he put down a bunt for a single the other day to didn't he. well.. better option than auto K anyway.

Leyland Says Justin Verlander Would Not Pitch In Game 7 Of ALCS.

I pretty much figured that would be the case.

After the early parts of this series, I felt compelled to check the weather. 0% chance of precipitation today and tomorrow. Mild temps so injured guys shouldn't have a problem staying loose. We can still do this, folks...

 

[food4thought]

If we can win tonight I believe we take the series, but we need another good start from Scherzer and alot of runs
