Game 44: Tigers at Twins

Big off-season acquisition Lance Lynn looks to improve upon his astounding 7.47 ERA against a team that opponents have called "a baseball team." and "made up of people who play baseball."

Two crappy teams battle it out in an important intradivision game, both still right in the hunt of the division lead. As much as I would love the Twins to win all the games, I'm really enjoying the entire AL central being a shitfest and I really want the division winner to be below .500 and then just win the world series. The coastal elite tears would subsist me for eons.
