Walking Cabrera to load the bases and face Fielder doesnt exactly give me a good feeling about this inning.

Eta. Took 3 relievers but they somehow escape giving up 0 runs.

You're not going to believe (or like) this.

Valverde signed to a minor league deal.

Oh not only do I believe it but I've been expecting it. if Valverde really has re developed his splitter he can help us.

And Fielder and Vmart leave them loaded.

Same ****. Different year.

Fielder with a classy move wanting to give Hicks the ball from his first ML hit instead of giving it to the 1b coach.

8th inning kinda disintegrated on the Tigers.

I don't see any downside. The only commitment is for a minor league tryout, he either earns a spot or he doesn't.

I'm glad to see the Tigers getting this ugliness out of their system right now, a little motivation not to look past anyone going forward. I'm not too worried about losing an early April series when it's 40° outside etc. Plus it's fun to give some friends of mine who are Twins fans a little false hope about a division title before crushing their dreams again.

No Twins fans have an ounce of good expectations for this season. Any win is just a nice surprise. The Twins winning a series is a quandary that will not go unpunished by the Pohlad family tomorrow.

Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 5: The Hank Greenberg edition

It was a hard game to watch what with that infernal yowling in the back ground.

The tigers offense has been dormant for a couple of weeks now. And Fielder is pretty terrible right now. what does he have 1 hit all year so far?

I've said it before and I'll say it again, we need to put up a wall on the Ohio Border!!

Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 5: The Hank Greenberg edition

Al Al had a bad bad inning, but at the same time, we've got to start getting more than 5 innings out of our starters. We could have 4 Mariano Riveras in the pen, and we're still going to have problems if we've got to run to the pen in the 6th inning every night.

**** poor baserunning out of Avila there. Maybe he was in shock that Santiago actually made contact.
