Tigers in 5.

Either way I hope the AL wins the WS.

Tough call here...Tigers are hot right now and they have a nice pitching staff. But the Rangers can score plenty and fast, and they have a very good pitching staff.

Tigers in 7 (because that means Verlander goes three times)

Leyland said he won't pitch Verlander for 3 games in the series. He will only use him on normal rest.

I think the Tigers win in 5 so that won't matter anyway

After hearing Delmon Young is out for the series I'm going to have to change my prediction to Tigers in 6. We are losing a hot hitter in the 3 hole and that will change things in the series.

I can't believe we are having this much rain. It hasn't rained this much here in months.

You sounds like David Stern when asked for the best possible NBA Finals matchup a few years ago. His response, the Lakers vs. the Lakers.

That said, I'm going to go with Tigers in 6. Tigers starters are all righties, as are their lights out setup man (Benoit) and closer (Valverde). Most of the Rangers better hitters are righties. The Tigers are mostly righty hitters vs 3 of 4 lefty starters. Numbers favor the Tigers on both sides.

Good job by the Rangers bullpen, they did a number of the Tigers. Tigers bullpen looked good too, but the damage was already done.

I can't believe how many HRs the Rangers have in their line-up for the regular season...impressive, though I would bet their numbers would be smaller if they played 81 games at Comerica.

Once again, Mother Nature f***s Justin Verlander. Don't be shocked if Leyland changes his mind and starts JV in Game 4.

Only possibility we can eliminate is Tigers in 4.

Game postponed until tomorrow at 4:19 ET. Lousy Rain At least Bud Selig got it right and didn't put the game at night during the Lions MNF game.
