Jeter - fractured ankle

Valverde - fractured brain

Even steven?

@drewsharp: #Tigers expected to announce that Valverde has a twisted neck b/c of all the times his head's snapped back looking at shots hit off him.

It's time to make some Valverde memes. Be back soon.

I love twitter sometimes lol

@MichaelKenned47: @TerryFoster971 Smyly just signed the ball "this is how you do it" and flipped the ball to Valverde.

@TerryFoster971: wait a minute. valverde is a hero. he might have gotten jeter out of the series. this would never happen if he closed the right way

@TerryFoster971: Good news. The Tigers go up 5-5 on a delmon young double. Bad news leyland is trying to petition to give Valverde one more shot to close

@TerryFoster971: They should put Chris Osgood in there next time. He has more saves than Valverde

@NormanChad: When Obama was bailing out Detroit, how come he didn't do anything about the Tigers' bullpen?

@TerryFoster971: Can somebody find out who valverde supports for president. I am voting for the other guy

@asktheduffer: Maybe Ilitch can convince MLB that Valverde actually plays for #redwings and lock him out.

Valverde just said that "he missed a couple pitches out there"

 

[sherbert1421]

He's managed a 3 and 4 run lead. Time to go for 5 next time out

@Chris_Iott: Jim Leyland said the coaching staff will talk about closer issue. No decision yet.

Could Leyland actually make a correct decision regarding a closer?

Color me shocked.

Put smyly in the closer spot

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

7 earned runs in 2 1/3 innings. Quick, do the math...what's Valverde's ERA in the postseason thus far?

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

Lions on in 11 hours, Tigers in 14.

Put smyly in the closer spot

This is the obvious solution to the closer problem.

Actually it's a good thing for the Tigers the game went into extra innings because the biggest break they got was when Jeter broke his ankle.

Seriously though, I wish he was healthy.

I do too, but it's a HUGE loss for the Yankees.
