TK and Blum said we were in a holding pattern waiting on a decision about the game. I don't know if it will be delayed or canceled.

I'd do that. In fact, I'd offer that same deal to Bregman. If he doesn't quickly jump on it, then I make the trade for Arenado.

IMHO Arenado is already in the declining age phase. His last two season are not good. Do not want.

Lotta people scared about who the Astros play. Remember, the other team has to play the Astros.

Dude is playing the same game Fisher did @ Oakland. He's fishing for a new spot.

Nah, I don't want to face the tigers pitching in a short series. That with our anemic offense is a recipe for early exit.

AJ phoning it in to set up a revenge series

They have to face Astros pitching too.

Ragans and Lugo are pretty damn good too.

It's going to be tough either way.

I hope the Baseball Gods allow us to go in dry on the Tigers. Losing 2 of 3 to the White Sox is ridiculous. I honestly don't have a preference but this was certainly a mail it in job by them

D Backs and Mets winning today and Braves losing doesn't really help Arizona.

The only way they get in is if a team sweeps tomorrow. A split gets Braves and Mets through. That sure does set up a chance for the team who wins game 1 to roll out scrubs in game 2 and basically quit.

Yeah, they do. I'm not scared and neither should the Astros be. That doesn't mean I wouldn't prefer not to face one of the better teams of the last few months with a legit ace and a super motivated skipper in a short series given the choice (which clearly I don't have).

Atlanta is mounting a charge. 2-4 but two on and 1 out B4

Joe got around to reading the thread today and realized Grae still needs that one more chance at a hit this season.

And they get nothing. 4-2 KC.

I didn't realize it but Ramon "I swear I didn't take steroids" Laureano is playing for the Braves.

I wonder if MLB is pressuring them to get the game in. Seems like both organizations want to get gone.

Det maybe not going to throw the game. GS 4-5

Zona up 7-1. Mets up 5-0. Atlanta down to KC 2-4 and Detroit down the worst team in MLB history 4-5.

I think what is going on here is that the Tigers are not willing to use any high leverage pitching in these last two games. In other words having the best rested and ready to go is more important than who the play on Tuesday.
Mr President Elect

yeah, I agree, but would just suck for them to lose 2 of 3 to the worst team in MLB history to give us the less desirable matchup. On the other hand, could end up cramping their momentum a bit and bite them.

It would be such a Rob Manfred thing to try and make both teams play a meaningless game tomorrow just because they couldn't today...I wouldn't put it past him

Can the Astros forfeit the game for social justice reasons?

Not gonna happen. Baseball has a long history of not playing make up games that have no meaning. They already said the Atlanta/Mets games would not be played unless needed.

I'm not sure if it would be completely meaningless, at a quick glance perahps WS homefiled could be at play for certain matchups.

Oh they are playing tomorrow. These games have definite meaning. But that announcement was made a while back.

I meant our game, Cle vs (Mil / SD) and Hou vs (AZ / Atl / NY) could potentially be impacted. Not sure if that counts as meaningful enough though

It's not important enough to burn the roster the day before the playoffs start.
