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

OK, I'll break the silence with this article: would_castellanos_call_up_equal_magic.

I think we all have a soft spot for Andy Dirks but the .245 average and 12 extra-base hits for a guy who is often hitting 7th in the lineup just isn’t cutting it. Slide an impact, extra-base gathering bat like Castellanos’ into an RBI slot like the 7-hole and Detroit might see more consistent run production throughout a 9-inning game.

Fister, Scherzer, Verlander the next three games. They can get the job done; let's hope the batting corp can do the same.

Porcello gets six games for plunking Zobrist. A complete crock of ****.
 
Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 5: The Hank Greenberg edition

Miggy miggies his 26th of the year, and we go from being down 4-0 to up 6-4, and Wang is knocked out.

How the hell does this Perez character throw the ball over the plate with a delivery like THAT?
 
Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 5: The Hank Greenberg edition

6-6 and we're not out of the 2nd inning. This is absurd.
 
Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 5: The Hank Greenberg edition

Santiago replaces Miggy in the bottom of the 9th. That spot in the lineup comes up 6th in the (potential) 10th. Benoit sure as hell better close this out here.
 
Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 5: The Hank Greenberg edition

Sorry, he bunted at the ball. That's considered a foul ball. Gibbons got ejected solely for show, even more so than normal.

7-6 final.

Rondon. Here's where it gets interesting.

Any word yet on Infante's knee??

From MLB.com: Tigers upset with Rasmus for takeout slide

I thought that slide sucked! I don't care if it was good, hard baseball. The Jays would be ****ing and moaning if it had happened to Kawasaki or Bonifacio or whoever else they have playing second base. Why is that not like checking & boarding from behind as in the NHL these days? Late slide, cleats up, not going into the base--Rasmus should be suspended.
 
Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 5: The Hank Greenberg edition

And then later Hunter got plunked high. After Porcello got suspended the other day. It's almost worth Verlander today going out and smoking Bautista tonight with a high hard one.

Or just do this.

I say have the catcher warn the Jays that JV is going to give them all one pitch high and inside. Go a few innings before having JV smoke Rasmus with one. Let the little bastard sweat with his team coming down on him as well.
 
Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 5: The Hank Greenberg edition

I suppose tonight qualifies....

Verlander gonna Verlander.
 
Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 5: The Hank Greenberg edition

Love watching Victor and Jhonny stick it right up Cleeeeeeveland's asses.

6-0, top 5, and Masterson is gone. Now it's up to Ricky to not play giveaway.
