Fuck I hope not, after we've held the top spot since early May, but we've only got a 2 game lead over them with 14 to play for each team left. If my boys are going to have any chance at all, it had better start with them playing for real tomorrow, and at least salvaging
one fucking game against the Twins.
After tomorrow, we start a 3-game series with Cleveland, and yet, even
that bothers me, because we have not fared well against the bottom of the barrel AL Central teams, even though we should be able to handle them easily.
Even worse, we wrap up the final 11 games after Cleveland with alternating series' against the White Sox and the Twins. The only good news I can see in all this is that there's 7 away and 7 home games, and we are wrapping up the last 7 at home, and we've been much better at home.
Still we face the unhappy prospect of only being a ½ game up on Minnesota come Tuesday, when we next play after tomorrow, as Monday is an off day for Detroit. We really need to get the most out of our pitching and get the bats making some serious noise the rest of the season, or else I don't see us making the playoffs this year.
