Meanwhile Jackson's 4 RBIs lead M's past White Sox

You don't honestly miss AJax do you? I know I don't. Hell, I'll gladly throw a couple more complimentary guys Tampa/Emerald City's way if they feel slighted. Price is worth five Jackson and Smylys.

What annoys me is the clubs laziness this weekend. Two guys go on the DL, DD does absofuckinlutely nothing! Bring up an arm, any arm, doesn't matter. Rick sat around for six hours thinking about last nights random and then BAM, get ready to work in relief kid. That's annoying. Im just glad they didn't waste the best Interleague Starter in history Sunday in relief.

I know i sure dont. Think i heard he was really slumping before yesterday. Dont know how true that is.

 

[Cleaves2000]

They are the guys he was ragging... you do realize you are talking Cleaves right? He rags on all players.

I will say when those young kids are actually hitting why take them out? I do know there are reasons I am not a manager, but sometimes Ausmus makes me

I dont rag on all players. I give credit when its due. I dont rag on our starters. If it wasnt for them this team would be below the sox. Lineup is garbage. I said it before the season. 5-9 hitters are gonna kill us and having no true number 5 will hurt this team. I said miggy will have a down year for miggy standards with no prince behind him. Sure vmart is but whos behind him? 5 garbage hitters who are so inconsistent.

Sure not seeing this small ball and scratching out runs. We barely scored on ny and toronto. Two teams with not great pitching. Imagine when we face great pitchers IF we make the playoffs.

It was Geno tonight though.

Im still wondering why he didn't review Nicky C stealing third!?! Looked safe to me. 1 out and a man on third..... And we lose 9 hours later.

(I had kidney stones on my vacay. It sucked as much as anything has ever sucked. 'twas a Lamont week for me.)

Ive had em twice. First time i thought i was constipated. It hurt like hell for 5 hrs before i went in. They gave me IVs and pain meds and i ended up passing it. Didnt know when tho. But the second time it was a huge one and i had to have surgery. They lasered it. Man my johnson was sore lol. I got messed up discs in my back and the stones were right up there in the pain dept. scary thing is ill prolly get em again.

The loss of Prince is not an issue with team. VMart has had better season than Prince ever had with the Tigers. ...

Sure whatever. Thats not the point. When miggy walked prince made em pay. But the whole point is minus prince, vmart had to slide into the 4th spot leaving a bum in the 5 hole.

When vmart gets 25+ HR's and 100 RBI's and our number 5 hitter starts driving guys in. Then maybe just maybe ill believe u and drink the kool aid. But to say its only august is really dumb. Theres fortysome games left. One bad streak and were out of the postseason.

 

[Cleaves2000]

Not to mention we had some pop with peralta and infante towards the bottom. Last yr our 5-9 was decent. Vmart peralta infante dirks avila was better than JD hunter avila suarez nicky c romine kelly or whoever else.

I dont find it unusual miggy lost prince and he wont even come close to MVP this yr.

 

[Cleaves2000]

I dont think the tigers are top 5 teams. The good thing is, the best teams rarely win the WS. I just want them to make postseason then see what happens. But i just dont see this lineup doing much damage vs great pitchers in the postseason

 

[Cleaves2000]

Well we catch the pirates while they are missing mccutchen and walker. Two of their better players. But hell toronto beat us minus encarnacion and the yankees schooled us with a bunch of scrubs. So we will see. The excuses are already to go if we lose. 'We were tired from yesterday' Time to make another mediocre starter look great. Hopefully rajai can do better than the 0-8 yesterday

Not dumb just need to take the homer glasses off. You never see the problems with this team. And theyre are many. With our staff we should be 20 games over .500. We shouldnt be losing series to SD or toronto when they dont have encarnacion. Or losing 3 to the beat up yanks. ..........just unacceptable. But the good thing is, once the postseason starts, its anyones game....just gotta get there....glad i wasnt one of the few that thought the tigers would run away with the central....KC has a BP. Thats huge!!!!!

 

[burfboy]

I read what I read and see what I see.....wow Miggy drove in a run to nite without Prince behind him....

 

[adrian2]

Jv may not last the first. I myself have had my fill of JV and his arrogant attitude. I'll take max anyday.

I think I said something awhile back if the Tigers make the postseason.....We need to send JV and another SP to the Bull Pen and go with 3 starting pitchers.......I know it goes against common thinking but pitch guys 4 and 5 innings and leave the BP out of the equation as much as possible......Instead of 5 day rotations go to 4 day rotations with two starters in the Bull pen to go back and forth......Different way of thinking but geesh, something has to change.

 

[adrian2]

free James McCann. Avila has to go.

Tigers 1-4 were the best in baseball 5-9 the worst in baseball. Also bullpen.

 

[kengel6]

Look who's now in first, it ain't Detroit. What this team needs is a couple more Cy Young winners.


Good job Dumbo.
