  1. Well on to the next one. Sucks that we might hand the Astros their ticket to the playoffs again but at least (this is probably from feeding off misery for a decade) a full Detroit collapse would be very funny

  2. Should have kept Lorenzen. He wanted to stay. Has a 4.04 ERA in the past 3 years which is better than other backend starters we’ve rolled out instead.
