Maybe it's silly to focus on 3 games over a 162 game schedule, but it really feels like this is a critical moment in the season. Detroit is now 1.5 games behind us in the standings. Best case scenario, we enter Friday with a .500 record and 1 game behind Cleveland/CWS in the division. Worst case scenario, Detroit passes us in the standings and we're in 4th place with a mountain to climb.
