Not sure if anyone caught the pitching duel between Zack Greinke and Yu Darvish last night. Absolutely brilliant pitching. Both deserved the win.

Tunnel vision right now for me. There's only one thing concerning Sox fans at this point. Making the post season and proving the critics wrong.

I see a one game playoff being a real possibility.

Cabrera's not fat, he's big boned!

Young's not fat, he's big boned!

Prince's not fat, he....oh, OK.

Who needs speed when you can slug.

Cabrera is a beast, but the other two?

If that is the case, you and me both know the Tigers will win.

More food for thought.. Well, really just comfort for me

In 2006, the Tigers lead or were tied for the lead in the division from May 20th until the last day of the season. They lost their last five at home to finish one game behind the Twins.

In 2009, the Tigers lead the division by three games with four to play, blew it to finish in a tie with the Twins and lost the one game playoff.

Jim Leyland was manager of both of those clubs.

In 1971, the Sox dropped 11 of their last 15 games.

Is that scary? Yes.
Is that true? I dunno.
Is it relevant? Not even a little.

Why? It's the 70's

My stats...true, relevant, and apparently scary to Tom

Not even a little.

If the last years' stats meant anything, the Hawks would have won the Stanley Cup in 2011.

True, that doesn't stop people from using history to help predict future events though. Not saying something will or won't happen. Just offering a small correlation.

That's true, but not as true as the fact's it's not relevant because you're talking the White Sox and the Tigers here.

True, just because the Tigers pounded the Yankess in the playoffs in 2011 doesn't mean it will happen in 2012.



But it probably will.

Yeah, even a blind (ice)hog finds an acorn every now and then, or even a couple dozen. But finding a couple dozen WS Rings is a different thing entirely.

Yeah, while the Yanks and O's are fighting tooth-and-nail to win the East, those two are both trying to back the other into the playoffs. Guess that's what's supposed to pass for excitement and competition in the Central.
