Tigers Win! Game 150 Afterglow

Bobby Seay and Brandon Lyon (or "Seay-Lyon," as we like to call them) made the eighth inning far more interesting than Tigers fans would've preferred, giving up a couple of singles and a couple of walks. And we saw the return of the bases-loaded walk, which was one of the most frustrating aspects of the Tigers' pitching staff in mid-season.
But the Indians couldn't get the big hit when it counted, and Detroit takes the first game of a series they really need to win (if not sweep).
Did Edwin Jackson get all better in this start? That might have been the roughest seven shutout innings any pitcher has thrown in a while. But no runs... is no runs. And I ask again: Should Ryan Raburn be the full-time left fielder from here on out?
Full recap later on. But for now, enjoy the afterglow. And I'm sure this will be sort of a Twins-White Sox thread, as well.

As I live in their city...I'll summarize.
They are built entirely to hit home runs and they went on a power outage for most of July and August. Their bullpen, so good last year, went kaput. And their defense is worse than ours was last season. If not for their starting pitching they ’d be down there with the Indians.

Kenny Williams
Same thing that happens every year. Williams seems to make his season decisions based on when the non-waiver trade deadline hits, not when the season actually ends. He decided they weren’t going to catch the Twins or the Tigers (at the time the Tigers were around 5-7 games up on the Twins, ChiSox within a game of the Twins) so he sold off the core of the team. Thome was a big part of that team since it’s been based around power, but losing Contreras wasn’t a huge loss to ChiSox fans as he became a shadow of his former self.

He is due for a bad performance.
The Sox have a ton of right handed power and it’s at the Launching Pad. Sox have to be favored tomorrow, if only slightly. Buehrle should be hell on Mauer and Kubel.
That all sounds good, but baseball makes no sense.

Royals beat Red Sox 5-1. Greinke went six shutout innings and threw 91 pitches. Hopefully they just decided to give him a break and that the low pitch count doesn’t mean he’s injured or something. He would be slated to start Sunday against the Twins.
