We're not being aggressive at the plate.

This is pathetic all the way around. This game needs to be tied after this next batter.

You'd have to hate your child to send him to Don Cooper's Camp.

Keep taking strikes, and swinging at balls.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 02:16 AM) That ball is on the concourse if its May....Thome just doesnt seem to have it anymore. He has absolutely lost all of his power to the right side of center field.

We've taken an amazing amount of called strikes tonight.

86 mph meatball that Thome can't touch.

This is the lineup I would love to see: Gload, Thome, Dye, PK, Crede, AJP, Iguchi, Uribe, Anderson It will never happen though.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 02:10 AM) With the way this night has gone, do you? I think we know that answer. What's your prediction...infield chopfest or two run homer off of Burgos?

QUOTE(kwolf68 @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 02:09 AM) I think that shows the Tigers have that magic crap this year and the division appears to be theirs...Not to be doom and gloom, but lets face it...They rolled a kid out of their pen who dazzled the Yankees, got a huge hit and we have at best mediocre starting pitching and the worst leadoff hitter in baseball. The funny thing is that the Tigers were frantically trying to upgrade over Monroe, who's now one of their best hitters. Meanwhile, we keep putting Mr. Zero Tool on the field.

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 02:08 AM) and torre inexplicably doesn't bring in Rivera in the 9th. I don't blame him. They're a lock to win their division...no need to pitch him twice today.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 02:08 AM) Tigers lead 5-3. Night realllyyyyyyy getting good. You don't think the Royals can get 6 more outs?

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 02:07 AM) Garland has only thrown 85 pitches. You know pitchers don't get tired before 100. Tigers 5, Yankees 3. This is the second game the Tigers beat the Yankees due to Rivera not being available.

QUOTE(G&T @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 02:06 AM) PK only gets hits when nobody is on recently. The second statement is entirely true. Iguchi has been real bad. Speed really helps throw off the defense. Iguchi is rolling over every offspeed pitch that he gets. I really can't recall the last time he hit the ball with authority to LF.

Um...where's the lefty?

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 02:04 AM) its obvious Pods is s***. Seriously, release Pods, brng up Owens and start Mack or Gload in left. He's a perfect example of a career minor leaguer that finally made it to the majors, and then saw his abilities go to s*** after 2004.

QUOTE(G&T @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 02:03 AM) To be fair, if PK wasn't in pop out mode, this game would be the Sox's by now. He's been useless too. Yes, but at least PK has produced recently. Our 1-2 can't hit a ball hard to save their lives.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 02:03 AM) We are in 1st place right now if we have a real leadoff hitter this season. Hell, if Mack/Gload was out there all season in LF, we might be in 1st right now. What does Pods bring to the table? Really? Nothing...absolutely nothing.

QUOTE(Brian @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 02:01 AM) For fathom.... Great stuff...if only Pods could be in the ring getting tombstoned.

Our 1-2 are so terrible.

Good grief...I HATE YOU! Great to hear the crowd booing. Gload better be starting in LF tomorrow.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 01:56 AM) His f***ing elbow hurts, and he still puts a nice swing on it. Ozzie Mack should not be out in CF again. Thank you. Have a nice day. Pods hit the f***ing ball. Ozzie had a quote in the paper yesterday defending his Mackowiak decision. I forgot what paper it was in...but needless to say, Alberto Einstein couldn't have said it better.

Wow! Great swing by Anderson...not a great catch by Rocco.

QUOTE(robinventura23 @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 01:55 AM) Why the bunt? Cause this team isn't very bright.

Take 2 Juan.
