Time to roar

Detroit starts a key 3-game series against Seattle tonight. At least the Tigers have the rotation in their favor with Verlander, Robertson and Bonderman throwing. It would be nice if Robertson and Bonderman flashed a little 2006 form.

This, obviously, is a big series between 2 of the wild card contenders. The Yankees travel to KC, then Toronto and Boston, so Detroit needs to make a run right now.

Were the past 2 dramatic wins a sign of things to come, or just something to provide false hope? This in Detroit's favor -- although the Tigs have got a doubleheader on Sept. 11 vs. Texas, they've got off days for the final 3 Thursdays. That could be huge. The Yanks and Mariners both only have 1 day off during that span.
