Boy how quickly things can turn.
Tigers ship is going down in flames...I may as well go down with the ship like the captain did with the Titanic

3 straight ALCS appearances, nothing to show for it. 2 World series appearances in the last decade with a 1-8 record in those games. They've shown that they can make it to the playoffs and make noise once they get there but they just can't finish the deal. Great teams do. They're just a good team...not a great one.

I wanna believe that Mike but they have to take the next two games in Detroit to even have a shot, and even then they would still have to eliminate Boston at Fenway, where the Red Sox have had the best home record in the Majors this year. If the Tigers split the next 2 then that means they go to Fenway having to win BOTH in Boston.
They're on life support.

God Niffla you're worse than me. If you win the next one you're tied. Just look at it like that for now. But then again, if you expect the worst it doesn't hurt so had.

Lmao yeah dude I'm pretty bad, I need to lose this half glass empty shit when it comes to sports. I've been telling myself this shit for years. Alright but you motivated me a bit. If they can find a way tomorrow it's a best of three, so I'll just hope for the best tomorrow night.

If the Tigers couldn't win with the start from Verlander, they don't deserve to win. Dude was on like donkey kong.

Yeah pretty much. With the money they have invested in that lineup, and they couldn't even muster a single run...not good. Not good.

And least the Tigers can win a freaking playoff series unlike the Braves. Hey at least we aren't Cubs fans.

I kinda thought the Dodgers were like the team of destiny this year. The way they roared ahead in their division after kinda middling around for a while. The story that Puig was and Kershaw emerging as arguably the best P in baseball. But damn, those freaking Cards. All they do is win in October.
Still not over til it's over, though.

Neither one is over. Certainly not the Tigers. Stunning upset of the series was getting a shutout from Lackey and co.

They went down 2-0 to the Reds in the divisional series too. Just gotta have heart and take it one game at a time.
The Dodgers are the last team I want to win but I'm not counting them out til they're out, and right now they're winning.

Fair enough. But when your team has to win 3 straight, if the loss is going to be hard to swallow you might wanna start chewing if you know what I mean. Get the vodka and Xanax ready, lol. I know dosage advice is not allowed on the Shroomery but let's just say a fifth and a bar.
