2011 American League LCS: Detroit vs. Texas

[razzzorsharp]

So, anyone have any opinions on who they want to advance?

Go Tigers. Big fan of Miggy and the partner's folks are from Michigan. I also despise the great progressive state of Texas.

[whizkid]

I'll take the Rangers, though I also despise Texas.

 

1) Don't think Comerica is the kind of park the Brewers do well in.

2) Don't want to face Verlander multiple times.

3) Not interested in watching cold weather games.

[TooLiveBrew]

Rangers please. I don't want to have to see the Brewers lose twice to Verlander.

[jjkoestler]

The rain gods are conspiring against Verlander and the Tigers.

Honestly. this is a much tougher choice than the Philly/STL series was. There isn't a player on either team that I dislike offhand. I am not a fan of Jim Leyland or Ron Washington though. Both have experienced World Series recently. The people of Detroit have been through a lot though...so I guess I could see myself cheering for the Tigers. Then again, I do not want any cold weather games either. Time zone? Eh it might be an hour a head of time but from Detroit to Milwaukee isn't THAT bad.

Game 2 postponed till Monday.

 

Magglio with a broken ankle, done for the year.

 

(With Young's injury, that hurts)

Looks like Detroit and Texas are emblazoned in another great game tonight.

[Ennder]

Nelson Cruz first person to ever hit 2 extra inning HRs in a postseason series. We sure could use him now!

 

Glad Detroit is losing, just don't like that team at all.

Well unless Detroit pulls off an amazing comeback, the Rangers are going to the world series. They are up 2-9 in the 4th.

That was a nightmarish bottom of the 3rd for Detroit. If anyone drops a nine-spot the next two days, I hope it's Milwaukee.

[carniesandrubes]

Night game tomorrow then for us. Should bring down ticket prices a little more (and they've already dropped pretty good the last 24 hours) for anyone who wants to go and hasn't bought a ticket yet.

[AZBrewCrew]

I hate to say it, but I don't see us or STL beating the Rangers. They are getting a lot of timely hits and their fielding iss good and Neftali Feliz is lights out. Its currently 15-4 in the 8th

[adamb100]

Well if we dont advance then I certainly dont want St. Louis to beat the Rangers. The Rangers never won a world series, it would be great if they could win one.

If the Brewers don't go to the ws then go Rangers.
