QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Aug 13, 2006 -> 09:01 PM) Uribe needs to learn to back off of that. Let the OF catch it. Yep, if he can't catch it, then he needs to get out of the way.

Some more bad communication out there. I'd bring in Jenks now.

UGH!

That's ok...no walks

Maybe it's me, but the Tigers are a better team with Thames in the lineup than they are Young.

No walks!

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Aug 13, 2006 -> 08:54 PM) YES!!! Big Run BA!!!!!! I know you and I have been very critical of him this season, but it's nice to see him actually doing things that help our offense win.

I'd let Thornton start the inning, and bring in Jenks if two guys reach base.

GOOD JOB BRIAN!

QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Aug 13, 2006 -> 08:53 PM) I am a little surpised the Tigers have not been bitten by their lack of a dominant closer more often. Jones gives up more deep fly balls that are caught on the warning track than any pitcher I've seen in a long time.

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Aug 13, 2006 -> 08:51 PM) I BTW, fathom...Mac's career GO/AO ratio is 2.42. Thanks

FWIW, Jenks is warming up.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Aug 13, 2006 -> 08:48 PM) JD has been on fire the second half. Unreal. More like the whole season....as long as Vincente Padilla isn't pitching.

QUOTE(shawnhillegas @ Aug 13, 2006 -> 08:47 PM) do you keep thornton in for the 9th? i only suggest it because bobby pitched yesterday and pitched 2/2/3 innings 3 days ago. If Jenks is feeling good enough to pitch, you bring him in.

The ball just flies off of his bat! Thanks Leyland for putting in Jones.

QUOTE(WSoxMatt @ Aug 13, 2006 -> 08:45 PM) Im going to throw out some MacDougal LOVE here...Hes been awesome since being acquired...KW may not have made the biggest deadline trade, but its turning out to be the best Does anyone know what MacDougal's career groundball/flyball ratio is? He seems to have a ton of movement on his sinker.

Yes! Crede made a very nice play on a tough hop. Well done Ozzie!

Wow....about a 20 hopper for a single.

Great pitch sequence.

MacDougal's in, and it looks like Mackowiak is in LF.

Ugh...not a smart AB by PK. He tried to do too much.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Aug 13, 2006 -> 08:31 PM) Always a fun matchup. I'd love to see PK just hit a line drive here.

Was Ozuna safe?

PK going to face Zumaya here?

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Aug 13, 2006 -> 08:25 PM) Walker's been killing righties more than lefties, and Iguchi has been killed by lefties this year. If we're sending in the righty, i'd actually take Pablo. I think I'd take Pods as the best choice overall though. PABLOWNED!!! Against a lefty, I'll take my chances with Pablo making contact.
