Leyland managed a good game, unfortunately Texas was just the better team. Are you going to blame him for the 2 fielding errors that we had as well? or like others said the cold bats?

Didn't Porcello give up about 6 of those runs in the 3rd? I was cleaning birds at the time, so I didn't see it live. Keep him in 4-5 innings, could have been about 20-5. The bats were HOT this game.
I agree with Tom. Don't make Leyland the scapegoat. He managed the way he thought was best.

Porcello only had 2 ER in the game. Would have had one if ump didn't blow call at 2nd. |

I stand corrected. My faux pas.

Definitely gave me my most baseball enjoyment since 2006. Tigers have their top four starters locked up for a few years, so I am hoping for more October baseball next year.
Good luck in the Series.

Congrats to the Rangers. Tigers didn't have the clutch hitting or pitching they needed. I know injuries played a role, but not enough to be blamed for losing. Rangers had the better bats and better bullpen. Losing A.A.'s confidence late in the regular season killed the Tiger's pen. He was a rookie, so hopefully he can rebound next year.
I hope the Rangers can beat the Cards. Good luck guys.

Didn't you hear, Mike? It was Leyland's fault.

I can't blame him for Game 6. Game 5 maybe.
![]() I like 4 of next year's starting rotation: Verlander, Fister, Scherzer, and Porcello. They need: 1. A 5th starter that is better than Penny, lefty preferred. 2. A starting 2nd baseman 3. A starting 3rd basemen 4. At least one decent reliever who can go more than an inning, lefty would be nice 5. A backup catcher who hits above the Mendoza line and has a decent arm Any bats they add would preferrably be from the left side or switch. They are too right dominant both at the plate and on the mound. I figure the outfield will be Boesch, Jackson, and Young. If Rayburn could learn how to field at all his bat is good enough to start him. However, I believe he has the worst stats in history for anyone who has started at 2nd base.
