Tigers gone, Angels going

The Tigers’ bullpen was terrible this postseason, and that’s why they’re done after being swept in three games by the Orioles. You’d think a team with starters named Scherzer, Verlander and Price would have been able to win several games, but those guys turned out to be mortal, and the Tigers had to call on relief pitchers, none of whom were very good.

The Angels are down 8-2 to the Royals and have used 8 pitchers to this point in an attempt to slow the Kansas City team down. Barring some huge meltdown by the Royals’ bullpen and an offensive explosion by the Angels’ bats, they’re about to be swept by a team which hasn’t even been to the playoffs since 1985.
