A.L. Central Smack Talk 2014

At the risk of sounding like Homer Dougie, the ERAs for Tiger starters as of today:

(1) Justin Verlander, 3.15
(2) Max Scherzer, 2.04
(3) Anibal Sanchez [DL], 3.13
(4) Rick Porcello, 3.22
(5) Drew Smyly, 2.70
Plus Robbie Ray (2 starts) is at 0.79.

Can you say "DOMINATION"?

I see no outlandish shit beingthrown about. Cold hard facts here.

#5 starter sub 3 is awesome.

 

[gandydancer]

How do you think Samardija feels? 1.45 ERA 8 QS in as many games and is 0-3.

 

[dougplayer]

so when I post starts..iam a homer... but when some one else does it...its not...oookkkkkkk.


Tigers getting ready to open a can of whoop ass tonight for a 3 game series up in boston.
Scherzer starts game 1.


also going for the 10 straight road win...... that's just a STAT......not being a homer....word

 

[dougplayer]

check out Yahoo. they got a story of the Pontiac Silverdome.
it has been setting idle for a few years. the roof caved in a few years ago. Soon to be torn down.
you can almost hear the echos of all those great Lions wins in the distance.


remember the super bowl was played there. Cinnci Vs SF. biter cold day. sub zero with wind chill around 15 below. people had to walk a mile just to get from the parking lot to the doors lol.

Were you even alive when it was still being used by the Lions?

 

[dougplayer]

yes. I almost score with a hot babe there.. I went up to her and said..how you doing.. she said hi. soooo close

 

[dougplayer]

J Lester.. iputting his under/over innings tonight at 4 2/3 innings. iam going under. Tigers come out and score early runs

 

[navamind]

You could be right about him not making 4 2/3... just for the wrong reason. So even when you're "right", you're still wrong. Shocking.

 

[Nosferatu]

Maybe it was the overalls and straw hat you were wearing that killed it?

 

[dougplayer]

tigers could have ended lesters night..but avila struck out with the bases loaded..avila sucks. I called it... I knew tigers would get to lester. he has 75 pitchs now through 3 2/3

 

[navamind]

well, the starters are back in it. Lester's pitch count is high though.

 

[dougplayer]

scherzer .sharp only a single allowed. through 4

 

[dougplayer]

dam rain delay cost max a no hitter dam

 

[navamind]

Dam you.

 

[dougplayer]

yep. I called it. scherzer might be even better than last year.
looks like big papa twisted his ankle on the first base bag...


scherzer was locked in before the rain.he stranded 2 in the 4th. he is back in the zone.

 

[navamind]

I wouldn't go as far as saying Avila sucks though. His 2011 was an obvious outlier, but he was still a pretty useful player in 2012 (.354 OBP and 99 OPS+ at catcher aren't bad at all, and he seems OK defensively).

 

[dougplayer]

neva...how can you be from jersey and like the red sox? aren't you supposed to be a yankee fan??? wont they make you turn in your bon jovi satan tour jacket??

Bon Jovi sucks. Lol

I don't have any Mass affiliation, but I've been a Sox fan since I was 7. Loved watching Nomar, Pedro and Valentin.
