Detroit Tigers, Volume 1 - The Lou Whitaker version

Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 1 - The Lou Whitaker version

From what I read in the Toronto papers this morning the Jays all said Verlander was unhitable. The fans booed the ball four call on Arencibia!

Credit the Jays, their fans and COTU papers- I am talking about the national hacks that just had to find something to detract.

Big 5-run 4th inning to KO the Toronto starter. Jackson with a big 2-out bases-clearing double.

Scherzer's going to be lucky to get through the 5th inning. He's laboring pretty good out there.

MARTINEZ!!!

8-2, top 7. 8 total bases for Victor so far.

And they might have broken Don Kelly's foot clean off his leg two pitches later. I guessing someone gets one in the back, courtesy of Albequerque.

And Ryan Perry is going to try to turn a 10-2 lead into a save situation.

Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 1 - The Lou Whitaker version

And Valverde has to come into a 5-run game, although it is not a save situation. Ryan Perry can't get through an inning with an 8-run lead. I'm starting to wonder why we've drafted college relief pitchers in the 1st round. First Matt Anderson, then Ryan Perry, and somewhere Chance Ruffin is on the side of a milk carton.

Kubel and Morneau should be plenty enough.

Kubel and Morneau should be plenty enough.

Say what?

AL Batting Leaders: 1. Bautista (Tor) .359, 2. Joyce (TB) .351, 3. Kubel (Min) .347

Kubel is pretty much the only bright spot this season in our batting order.

Bingo. Any time we have won, Kubel was the big factor. Anytime we didn't get blown out, Kubel was the big factor. Any time we got just killed, Kubel drove in the run or two we got. Everyone else is terrible.

Man, it is just not happening for Magglio, is it? And it's not early anymore.

Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 1 - The Lou Whitaker version

Boesch needed that one badly. He was really starting to slide.

Cabrera is already at 10 intentional walks for the season and on pace for about 43. The AL record is 33. The non-Barry Bonds NL record is 45.

Go check Kubel's, NadSpan's and Morneau's BA against the Tigers. I'm beginning to wonder if Morneau has recovered, though. When Mauer & co. return to the lineup, it will change.

Nice to exorcise some demons at the Twins expense last night.
