QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 6, 2012 -> 11:14 PM) Cesar Izturis, Mike Fontenot? Are you guys serious? Fontenot is clearly better than Hudson

Hopefully it was precautionary, as he did steal a base after getting hit.

MLB denied the Angels protest....YAY

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Aug 6, 2012 -> 09:19 PM) Sounds like alot of issues, I hope PTAC weighs in on these. I wonder how much of this is normal wear and tear for someone who's been pitching professionally for a while? Also, any reason to expect velocity issues due to this injury?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 6, 2012 -> 09:26 PM) Trying to acquire a starting pitcher before everyone knew he was out for the year? Rangers admitted they did that with Feliz

Great news about Danks!

I think this is great news, as it hopefully means that Sale's velocity has been good during bullpen sessions and everyone else is feeling good.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 6, 2012 -> 04:47 PM) Danks, Floyd, RH Free Agent TBD, Quintana, Santiago No Sale?

QUOTE (chw42 @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 10:29 PM) Totally ruined what could have been a perfect day for the Sox. I'm pretty happy with being up 1.5 after this weekend though. 2.5 would have made for a great day, but like flavum keeps saying, Sox just need to worry about themselves and get to 90 wins. Also, it doesn't hurt to pick up a game this weekend on the main wild card contender.

QUOTE (flavum @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 09:18 PM) Tigers at the 2/3 mark with a 58-50 record. They'll go at least 32-22 for 90 wins. Sox have a loong way to go. You hate to see them have the momentum heading into Yankees series (and having Verlander going).

Cabrera has to be the best clutch hitter on the planet.

This is a similar game to the Tigers' 3rd game of the season vs Boston.

Tigers tied it...f***

Shouldn't Cleveland have been guarding the line with Jackson up there?

Hell yes! Wasn't sure how deep that was. Nice job by Reed and Ventura gets a huge gold star for using AJP.

Just threw it right past him. Hopefully he throws some good change-ups to Morales here.

Ugh, he can't get many to chase that slider

Gotta change the eye level to Iannetta here

And here we go again.

Damn, tough match-up there for Danks.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 09:51 PM) http://www.motownsports.com/forums/detroit-tigers/ It's actually a pretty solid board. I've trolled it since 2006. Didn't Granderson used to post on there?

QUOTE (chw42 @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 09:49 PM) Carrera hits a HR now. Indians up 2, just after Alexei hit his triple. Carrera's done more positive things for them this weekend than Damon did all year I think.

If Ozzie was managing, I'd guarantee a squeeze attempt with Danks.

Way to go Alexei! Good base running by Olmedo as well. Ventura's done a phenomenal job with his offensive subs the last two innings.

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Aug 5, 2012 -> 09:45 PM) Uncharacteristic bad game from Rios. Maybe the pressure of carrying the offense is finally getting to him. He's opening up just a shade too quick, but he's still putting himself in a great position at the plate by swinging at strikes.
