Kevin Gausman

(7-10)

3.58 (1.28/.260)

148K / 40BB, 23HR

QS: 4

</b>

Kevin Gausman is on fire lately having not allowed a run in 19 innings over three starts with 15 hits allowed and four walks. He's been a bit lucky, but 19 scoreless innings is 19 scoreless innings and he has lowered his ERA to 3.58 during the current hot streak. He faced the Yankees for two of those starts which is a team that he has dominated over his career, but he has not fared well against the Tigers. In May, he allowed four runs on 10 hits, a home run and two walks in five innings. I know it's only two ABs, but Justin Upton has gotten on base all three times against Gausman and it hitting .367 since August 20th with nine home runs and 21 RBI. He has come to life at the right time for the Tigers and has been a force in the middle of their lineup, so he could be trouble. Gausman has never pitched at Another Stadium Named After A Bank Park.

Michael Fulmer

(10-6)

2.77 (1.08/.223)

112K / 35BB, 14HR

QS: 12

Last 3 starts (16.2 IP): (0-3) 6.51 (1.51), 4HR

Fulmer may very well end up winning the ROY award this season and no one would question it. He has been fantastic for the Tigers this season, but he has entered his roughest stretch of the season over the last three starts. He hasn't been terrible aside from one start where he allowed six runs on 10 hits (2HR) in 5.2 innings against Boston, but allowed three in five and three in six in the other two and is 0-3 over those three with four home runs allowed. He allowed four earned in 4.1 innings on five hits and three walks back in May. That was the last start of his struggles this season and he allowed only three runs over the next eight starts totaling 51.1 innings which is astounding and lead to a 0.61 ERA in 29.2 innings for the month of June.

The orioles drop the last game in Tampa Bay as a result of a badly played and badly managed effort. Fortunately, the Tigers blew a late inning lead in their game and remain one back in the WC. Series don't get much bigger than this one, but everyone knew that already. The Tigers are currently one back of the WC.

Should be a good one, huh? The potential 2016 ROY against a guy with a 19 scoreless innings streak. Gausman has pitched poorly against the Tigers and has never pitched in their park while Fulmer does really well at home, but has struggled over the last three starts.

The Yankees are tied 3-3 with the Rays in the fourth inning of their game and Houston already lost to Cleveland earlier. Seattle plays Texas in a couple hours.

    • Starting point has changed.  Given the fact he has approx 1/7th of his season in the books at 1.139, to OPS just .780 for the season, he'd have to drop off to under .730 the rest of the way.  That sort of drop off wouldn't be acceptable to me. I'd like him to OPS .800 the rest of the way for roughly .850 for the season.  The more they use him in a platoon role, the better I think that number might be.
    • Can I ask how you timed it vs the DVR?  Did you use a stopwatch or count click with pause/FF, or something else?
    • I can’t fathom why anyone would want a Tanner Scott return. In 10 innings, he is 0-4 with a 1.78 whip. He was maddening before, and now he’s older. But I wonder if the Red Sox would part with Justin Slaten? He’s been pretty outstanding. Yeah, only 8 innings, but we hired Yohan Ramirez, and he’s been a catastrophe in 10. Yes, I know he’s a rule 5, and the Bosox are in the East. And their pitching is pretty thin, too. But they know they aren’t going anywhere in this division, and they might think getting a good return for a Free Rule 5 guy might be worthwhile.
    • This draft unfolded weirdly.  First with the *nix guys getting taken early and then how no defensive players got taken all draft, and then a bunch of teams reaching for OTs.  I'm pretty happy with how the draft unfolded because I think we got a player that I expected to be gone by the teens or early 20s.  I don't know what we're doing with our OL but hopefully we can maybe trade up from 62 to pick someone up.
    • I have it on dvr and I timed it four times. I got 10.75, 10.80, 10.74, and 10.78.
    • This is exactly what EDC said tonight     
    • My guess is more of a safety profile than they preferred. They clearly wanted Wiggins. They ran that pick up fast. And then when you listen to the press conference, the love for the player was obvious.
