All right, 3 o'clock, good to have you aboard. We have a question for you. Now the Tigers are

on to the ALDS. We wanted Houston. We got Houston. We beat Houston. And I think everybody in the room here believes you're beating Cleveland.

Tigers and four feels right to me.

So the question is this, is there something history can teach us?

And I want to credit a caller in the first hour for adding to the layers of the onion.

We had a fun historical stat which was you're now the fourth team in the history of this sport to be at least 10 games out of first

Like I don't think they're winning the whole thing.

I don't think you're a bad person. I think if you're being

pragmatic that doesn't mean you're a jerk. Now I thought you'd beat the

Astros I have full confidence you will beat the Guardians. I do think it ends against the Yankees. But if you disagree that doesn't mean

you're a crackhead. I could also see this team continuing the mysticism where guys with five, six, seven, and 80 ras in Toledo are in fact the best
