During the opening series, I predicted we'd be 5-5 after tomorrow. Guess I was overconfident. But let's get as close to that mark as we can. 

This rough stretch isn't all about us stumbling around. Not that we haven't done our share of that, but we've also run into some decent opponents. I don't think any of them will outdo Houston for the full season, but on the proverbial "any given day"...well, we see what can happen. Time to right the ship. 
 

The Tigers are a “decent opponent”?

and the white Sox and twins are at best around .500 ballclubs.

They're certainly not elite. But even the ordinary teams have guys who can grab a game or even a series from you, especially if you're not at 100%. Anderson, Gray and Torkelson are good examples. Of course, we all assume the Astros will have a much better season than any of those three teams.

They’ve had stretches like this the last few years for sure. Thing is, Springer, Correa, Verlander, Cole, Altuve (for a long time) aren’t walking through that door.

While true, Tucker, Alvarez, Javier weren’t waking through the door either in any meaningful sense when Cole and Springer were here. And Abreu obviously wasn’t.

Nah, the White Sox are really fucking good, and they don't have LaRussa holding them back anymore. Same with the Astros and Dusty, the game has evolved from Dusty's way of managing.

 

The Tigers scored 13 runs in their 2 wins against the Astros, and 11 runs in their 5 other losses. they are fucking horrible.

tucker's footprint is literally on the fucking baseline.

Abreu is just fucking nasty.

Thought Buxton got fucked on the 3rd strike call live.

This crew can't wait to get fucking home evidently.

Terrible throw by Pressly and divine intervention by Jose Abreu.  What a dig.

Ballgame.

 

Today felt like our heroes being themselves.

Let's get back on track, boys.

14K in good weather on opening weekend with a chance of a sweep against the defending WS Champs.

Minnesota just don't give a fuck.

Target Field capacity: 39504.

I get all of this, but it’s also Easter Sunday. Let’s at least give it that context.
