How can the Tigers STILL have a questionable bullpen after years of knowing their relievers have kept them from winning a World Series?
It is a sputtering Motor City episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

2014 ALCS Preview: O’s Vs Royals
This year’s 2014 ALCS matches up two teams that not many people predicted to get to this point, but as arguably the two hottest teams in baseball, the Baltimore Orioles and the Kansas City Royals definitely will be a fun and exciting series to watch.

It’s been a while since the Baltimore Orioles and the Kansas City Royals have found themselves in the American League Championship Series, but the wait for these two fan bases is finally over.
These two teams will open up a best-of-seven series at Camden Yards on Friday night.
Although it isn’t the usual suspects we see in the series (such as the New York Yankees and the Boston Red Sox of the world), baseball fans should definitely keep an eye on this series, as two of the hottest teams in baseball will face off to determine who represents the American League in the World Series.

Yesterday I said jokingly that the final score of the Cardinals and Dodgers game with Clayton Kershaw and Adam Wainwright pitching would be 10-9.
It is one of my FEW predictions that actually came true.
The Dodgers and Nationals blew critical games, the Tigers bullpen is a joke and the Angels are showing why the best record in the regular season doesn’t mean crap.
Plus I remember my wedding day on this episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.
Sully Baseball Daily Podcast – October 3, 2014
I recorded today’s podcast from the center field bleachers of PetCo Park in San Diego California, home of the Padres.
That’s right, I was in the ONLY Southern California baseball stadium not hosting a playoff game today.
I discussed the underrated misery of San Diego fans, the predictability of the Tigers’ bullpen failure, the insanity of the Royals playoff games and my love for a Quadruple Header in baseball today.
It is a Staying Classy in San Diego episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.
Who Owns October In MLB Playoffs 2014? (#WOO) Tallies Updated For ALDS Games Thu Oct.2, 2014
USA Today Sports
Each winning team for every post season game gets a pitcher and a hitter who earn a full WOO (Who Owns October.)
And at my discretion, I award a 1/2 WOO’S to a worthy player on the losing team.
For a full explanation, click HERE
From October 2nd ALDS games:
Receiving 1 WOO
Nelson Cruz hit a 2 run homer in the first, drove in another in the 8th and scored year another run in the Orioles wild 12-3 beating of the Tigers.
Andrew Miller struck out 3 in 1 2/3 key innings of relief as Baltimore opened the floodgates late and beat Detroit 12-3.
Mike Moustakas reached base twice, scored twice and hit the tie breaking and eventual game winning homer in the 11th to lead the Royals to a 3-2 win in Anaheim.
Jason Vargas pitched 6 innings, allowing 3 hits (2 solo homers), 2 runs and walked just 1. He didn’t get the win but helped set up Kansas City’s 3-2 extra inning victory against the Angels.
Receiving 1/2 WOO
Miguel Cabrera reached base twice and cut the Orioles lead to 1 with an 8th inning homer. The Detroit bullpen would have a complete meltdown in the 8th and lose 12-3.
Chris Iannetta got on base twice and hit a homer in the Angels 3-2 extra inning loss to Kansas City.
Jered Weaver pitched 7 strong innings, giving up just 3 hits and 2 runs. He would get no decision as the Angels dropped the game in 11 innings to the Royals, 3-2.

A positively bonkers eve to the final (scheduled) regular season game leaves more questions than answers.
Tomorrow could be even crazier and realistic scenarios have as many as three additional games being played on Monday.
Things are getting odd and I’m recording a podcast in my garage.
It is a tin foil hat crazy episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast

There is a possibility that Derek Jeter‘s final game at Yankee Stadium could get rained out. That is hilarious.
Next year, how about a 30 ballpark tour celebrating Hank Aaron and Willie Mays while they are still with us?
That and Wild Card scenarios on this episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

Washington and Baltimore both clinch in an amazing night for the Beltway and both franchises are seeking redemption.
Things get tight in the AL Central, a closer should be put in moth balls and stupidity overshadows what was basically a meaningless Rays and Yankees game.
It is a stretch time down to the wire episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

What should we make of the Milwaukee Brewers? Are they for real or are they yet another team that surprises then fades?
And when will the Tigers solve their bullpen woes.

A little more than a month ago, the Tigers and the Braves looked like solid picks to go to the World Series. Now both teams are struggling to find their footing.

Did Max Scherzer make a mistake turning down the big contract by the Tigers? And what is the risk of signing an ace?
WFAN’s Jason Keidel and I talk about that and go on a few other tangents on today’s episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

Should we believe in them?

Ian Kinsler needs to take media lessons from Derek Jeter. But at least he gave some life to a Tigers/Rangers rivalry.
