00:00And by the way, over the summer, you might have been paying attention to the Detroit Tigers.
00:03Like, yeah, of course, they're going to win the division.
00:04They'll be in the playoffs, maybe even the favorites to win the World Series or at least the American League.
00:08If you haven't been paying attention, man, there is a free fall going on in Detroit where that lead is down to three and a half games because one, Cleveland won't lose.
00:16And two, Cleveland kept on beating the Detroit Tigers.
00:19Well, today, Atlanta is going to take the field.
00:21They're just playing spoiler right now.
00:22And Elder is really a bad pitcher, but not lately at this point.
00:25He's actually been on his P's and Q's.
00:27Charlie Morton gets the start for the Tigers.
00:29They're only, and this goes to show you, Morton is at home with the Tigers in first place at a minus 120 price.
00:35The pressure is starting to build for the Tigers.
00:37They need to bounce back in the biggest way, but I don't have a lot of confidence in them right now, Joe.
00:43Well, you can't.
00:44They can't hit.
00:45They're back to that.
00:46The starting pitching.
00:47I mean, if you can't win school ball starts or Flaherty starts or my starts, which you didn't, you get swept by the Guardians.
00:55Oh, yeah.
00:56By the way, you've got the Braves who would love to play spoiler the rest of the way.
01:01This is their last homestand, Donnie.
01:03You know who they have after this?
01:05The Cleveland Guardians for three games in Cleveland.
01:09So you think maybe they're tightening up a little bit?
01:12I mean, Charlie Morton hasn't gone more than four innings in any of his last three starts.
01:18He's walking, guys.
01:20He's 100 years old.
01:21And you mentioned it, though.
01:23You've got to love Bryce Elder.
01:25He had four quality starts in a row, and then he got shellacked against Houston last time out.
01:32So which version do we get here tonight for Atlanta?
01:36Can't trust Detroit.
01:37Yeah, exactly.
