You knew when they had the bases loaded with a run in and nobody out, only getting 1 more on a Sac Fly would haunt them.

And when that sac fly happened and Jeremy Pena started celebrating like he'd walked off Game 7, it was all but assured.

The baseball gods do not take kindly to that kind of thing.

Side note - good for Detroit. I think they're probably roadkill from here forward (I mean shit fellas, how many bulllpen games can you actually throw? Because you may need FOUR of them...) but it's a heck of a story.

Sure wish they had Flaherty back. He'd be pretty nice for them right about now.

I'm not so sure. They've won like 90 games since the beginning of August

I don't know if you followed them late in the season, but some of their relief arms are long guys that are technically starters, but enter the game in relief.

Brant Hurter, who pitched today in relief, pitched 5 2/3 no-hit innings against Baltimore late in the season. He's a lefty with a funky delivery.

Ty Madden is another long relief arm they use in 5-inning stints.

They've even shown a willingness to use relief ace Beau Brieske in three-inning stints at times.

I think their pitching staff is very 2020 Tampa Bay Rays-esque. A lot of interesting arms. Scott Harris hasn't really gotten the love yet, but I think he's one of the best GMs in baseball.

I've listened to some interviews with Harris - he's a bright dude.

And regarding the parallels to the Rays - sooner or later that just doesn't work. You can win a LOT of regular season games doing it. The Rays certainly have. But the more often you go to your 'pen, the more likely you are to eventually find a guy to lose it for you. And in the post-season when pitching is paramount and run scoring can be difficult, one bad inning can unravel the whole thing.

I agree that having horses like the Phillies is the way to go.

But I do think the Tigers can get to the ALCS. Cleveland is in the same situation, heavily dependent on its bullpen and thin starting pitching. This isn't the Cleveland rotation we've grown to known. Tanner Bibee is starting Game 1 and likely Matthew Boyd in Game 2.

They are showing the game Monday scheduled at 6:38 Central on TBS, so we are looking at some serious overlap with the Chiefs game.

Padres are ****ing relentless. Pummeling the Braves and their best remaining pitcher. I think this one ends tonight as well.
