I have that reaction anytime I see someone wearing a Tigers jersey anywhere.

He's lucky I wasn't carrying a hammer.

Detroit might actually make some major changes in the next month or two. How they try and rid themselves of some fat contracts should be interesting to watch.

I am sure we will be getting a detailed breakdown of how the Tigers will solve their problems and when they should begin a ''rebuild''...from SportsHoopla's #1 Detroit expert, Dr. Dougplayer.

I await Dr Doug's in depth and detailed analysis of the Tiger situation. (And perhaps a story about how he also ''almost'' was Detroit's starting pitcher for opening day in 1984.....but he had an infected pubic hair)

Get to watch the Tribe on the tube today.

 

[Howie115]

Tigers are clenching up their sphincters with RISP again. Through two innings today: 2 hits, 4 walks, no runs.

What a pathetic bunch of pukes.

GM Avila and his trusty sidekick Brad Ausmus came up with the trio below to replace Cameron Maybin in the light of the team's inabilty to sign or trade for any DECENT centerfielder. Their plan was too keep just 2 out of the 3, but when JD Martinez went down with an injury....sadly they had to keep all three. The Big Three's current BA.

JaCoby Jones - .167
Tyler Collins - .203
Mikki Mahtook - .185

The Big Three, the signings of Jordan Zimmermann, Justin Upton, & Mike Pelfry, and a continually lousy bullpen....yet somehow Avila Sr keeps his job? When Old Mike Illitch died, did the family just stick him the ground, fly off to Bimini and forget to leave anyone watching the store?

What does the Scarecrow from the Wizard of Oz & doug have in common?

Spoiler

Neither have a brain.

Tigers do there best to waste fulmer great start
Going for record of men left on base in 1 game.

 

[Howie115]

And here is how the road trip has gone:

Through 5 innings, Tyler Danish of the White Sox had thrown 104 pitches, while the Tigers' Michael Fuller had thrown 50 pitches.

Tigers are losing, 1-0.

What does the Tin Man from the Wizard of Oz & the Tigers have in common?

Spoiler

Neither have heart.

 

[dougplayer]

We need to set aside 1 day a week. Just to talk about jimbo and his greatness. At least once a week

 

[Howie115]

Tigers have the first two batters on in the 7th. Here comes two whiffs and a ground ball.

No worries doug. There's already a thread I started last year about Jimmy Jam's greatness. You should check it out. Although Yer Boy Voltaire26 might get upset that CFB is being talked about in a MLB thread.

 

[Howie115]

There's the two whiffs. Here comes Vmart for a groundout. Such a predictable team.

 

[Howie115]

How the hell does a team draw 8 walks in 7 innings and not score a damn run??!!

They are being stalked by Iffy?

Bye bye Eric Hosmer & Royals manager Ned Yost. They both just got the boot.
