PH>DH>Starter is the general rule of thumb in terms of difficulty.

Easy series for the yanks. Thanks tigers.

Should have swept them

 

[dougplayer]

Thanks for answering. Now you best be getting back to that "very busy day".

I hope I learned you some thing today gandy.
don't let the fact that this could have been Miggys first PH OP this year. maybe his 2nd. will look it up for you.
I know. those 87 RBIs don't excuse him from that PH this game

the Heat were lucky..they should have got swept in that first championship they won..right jay?

 

[bksballer89]

Dougie this is 2014, not 2011 so stay relevant kid

 

[dougplayer]

you know how I do

 

[bksballer89]

It was awesome to see the depressed look on all the tigers fans faces today on the train coming from the stadium.......they looked almost as depressed as dougie

 

[gandydancer]

While there is such a thing as Pinch Hitting slope (Pinch hitting is harder than being a starter) the entire Tigers offense embarrassed themselves, today atleast. They failed to score 1 run, end of discussion.

Whil I understand Moose, I just don't give a pass to guy because he is a star. Two on and he GIDP. Fact as Dougie says...

I hammered CJ last year for dropping two crucial passes against Ravens. You are a star be one. Simple, no free passes by this fan!

Trust me if Trout was a PH and GIDP .... Dougie would be all over him.

Oh, of course. He's the king of double standards.

How on earth could you teach? Apparently you skipped some classes back in the day son.

I guess Miggy just isn't the best anymore. Trout had a PH game winner earlier this year.

 

[bksballer89]

Royals just 2.5 back now

 

[Fountain City Blues]

Royals just 2.5 back now

So, the Mariners, Royals, Yankees, and Blue Jays for the time being appear to be in a four way all out deathmatch for that final WC...

Looking forward to our four remaining meetings.

 

[navamind]

At this point, Adam Dunn might actuallly help the White Sox pitching staff.

 

[dougplayer]

2.5 back from the Royals.... not ascared.

 

[gandydancer]

2.5 back from the Royals.... not ascared.

Is that 2.5 in front??? Learn me something here ole wise one...

He is predicting again, for next week.

Kratz the DH vs...LHP? This is why you don't trade Valencia, just saying. Hellbent on misusing their bench.


DH Aoki vs LHP and start Dyson in Center.


Another option would be to start Colon at 2B while DHing Infante if you don't like Dyson vs LHP.

He is the best at predictions....just ask him, he will tell ya.... XACTLY WORD

 

[da55bums]

Yeah, like Yost was getting lineups right before Valencia left. He has misused Dyson and Cain all season long, now he gets to add Colon and Kratz to misuse..

Dyson/Aoki
Cain
Perez
Gordon
Butler
Infante
Hosmer
Moose/Colon
Escobar

No pressure on Hos/Moose/Colon down there, if they hit something great....and just leave the lineup alone, pulling Butler and Hosmer out of the middle was needed but he doesn't need to freakin tinker with it every damn night, with or without Valencia.

Like having 3 speed guys in front of Perez that way.

It's just frustrating to see as a guy who pays attentions to all the splits and trends I suppose. Certainly hoping Cuthbert comes up for a September callup and ends the headache with the current bench.
