QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Aug 23, 2012 -> 08:34 PM) Toronto is a joke, we need Angels to get hot for the Tigers series, but not anymore than that. Well said...Sox probably also want Tampa to sweep Oakland

QUOTE (chw42 @ Aug 23, 2012 -> 08:27 PM) Oliver gets out of it. That was just sad. They were pitching around Fielder and they ended up throwing a wild pitch. SMH. Similar to the 2 gift runs they were given last night.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Aug 23, 2012 -> 06:58 PM) Offensively, yes, but if you lose Cabrera or Fielder you make the defense better while making the offense worse. If you lose Jackson, you make both the offense and defense worse. Isn't Berry a great defender as well?

Too early for Delabar to come into the game?

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Aug 23, 2012 -> 05:50 PM) Verlander is their most irreplaceable player and I actually might rate Jackson second ahead of Cabrera/Fielder. Cabrera to me is much better than his back-up (Santiago) than Jackson is to Berry.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 23, 2012 -> 05:48 PM) Verlander for sure. They can lose one of the offensive guys, as they partially make it up with much better defense. Plus they still have a dangerous line up. I say Cabrera

I wonder what the odds would have been on a Verlander no-hitter today? I'll be shocked if Toronto gets more than 4 hits today, their lineup is worse than a split-squad spring training lineup.

Any confirmation that Millwood is pitching Sunday and not Felix? Also, looks like Pujols could miss a few games against the Tigers this weekend.

Hell yes! Great job by Sale and Reed

Graphics guy going for the massive jinx

Keep Chavez in the park!!

Oh boy, bad defense shows up again at the worst time.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Aug 23, 2012 -> 03:24 AM) Would not have minded a pr for youk instead of paulie Youk better defensively than Olmedo?

QUOTE (Jake @ Aug 23, 2012 -> 02:20 AM) Where is Septimo when you need him How dare you

I wonder if Ventura's going to go with Reed or let Thornton face Swisher and Cano? Funny thing is that I trust Veal more than anyone in the pen to get Cano out.

Hell of a play by Beckham!

QUOTE (Butter Parque @ Aug 23, 2012 -> 02:13 AM) The most valuable arm we've had ever

Wow Sale!!

Damn, just missed another extra base hit.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 23, 2012 -> 02:02 AM) Great work Chris... Now Robin...take him out! I bet he's given the first two hitters next inning.

SALE! Filthy, and great to see him use the soft stuff on 2-0

Got to keep Martin in the park here, as he'll be swinging for the fences.

Vizquel caught stealing by 5 feet to end the game. Tigers got some big gifts in this game on their runs.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 23, 2012 -> 01:50 AM) Hughes keeps putting that fastball in Viciedos wheelhouse but he can't stay balanced. Tank has no chance against Hughes so far in his two outings vs the Sox. Viciedo needs to be able to cover that outside fastball if he's going to have no chance on inside fastballs.

Way to go Rios! 7 of the 9 Sox starters with homers now.
