Dick Allen

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jul 1, 2005 -> 03:06 PM) I don't disagree that he's trying to get money out of it, but if you were injured by a multi-millionaire on camera, would you sit on your ass and not complain? And secondly, pushing a 30 pound camera off of someone's shoulder, someone who already had preexisiting back and neck conditions, is actually enough to hurt them. It's not life threatening, but that doesn't mean Rogers' actions weren't illegal, and that doesn't mean he shouldn't have to pay up for them. Did you see the footage of this guy after Rogers went after him? He was getting ready to leave, you couldn't tell that he needed any medical assistance, and he winked at someone with a little smile. Next thing you know he's in an ambulance. I think Rogers got what he deserved as far as a suspension goes, and I think he should be ineligible for the All Star Game, especially if he has a clause for a nice bonus being selected. But this cameraman is milking it, no doubt about it.

You've seen one of those shows, you've seen them all. How many times do you have to see Howard say" What are those honey...b cups? c cups? Boy, I'd like to bang you......"

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 02:14 PM) Widger can't hit or bunt But he looks cool when he's sporting the Oakleys

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 02:09 PM) Ozzie has seemed to abandon small ball, we've been station to station for to long now, he needs to get these guys in motion right now, with the offense struggling he needs to make something happen. I agree, but you have to get someone on base to put them in motion.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 01:23 PM) About a week/week 1/2 ago. Oh, about a week back

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 01:22 PM) He still has a sore back. He's getting a day off. when did he hurt it?

QUOTE(Jabroni @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 11:09 AM) Rooney and Farmer are saying that Marte was put on the DL likely as a precautionary move so he can maximize his days of rest with the All-Star break coming up. They said that Kenny is probably worried more than anyone else. In one of the papers today, it said Marte was in Chicago yesterday attending to a personal matter and he returned to Detroit during the game yesterday. I bet he was getting examined.

This Marte thing really concerns me. I mentioned when they were in Toronto he was shaking his arm after he threw in the bullpen. This injury he has now is probably related to that. Losing him would be a big blow.

Considering the hatred for Luis Vizcaino, how could anyone want to add old pitchers with far worse numbers? If the Yankees are paying these guys almost $7 million combined and they now want to pay them not to pitch, I think it speaks volumes.

QUOTE(Jabroni @ Jun 29, 2005 -> 09:07 PM) The bullpen deserves a dozen hookers tonight. I'm sure that was the plan win or lose. They are in Detroit.

Another failure to get the runner home from 3rd with less than 2 outs. This loss may send Detroit reeling. Break out the brooms tomorrow Freddy.

Why is Palanco always batting in these situations?

QUOTE(DonkeyKongerko @ Jun 29, 2005 -> 08:52 PM) Is Hermy officially on bereavement? or is he available for the 13th? He's in uniform.

Shelton scares me in the bottom of the 13th.

Strrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetttttttccccccccccccccchhhhhhhhhhh

Are the seats at Comerica Park the same style that will be put in USCF? They look very similar.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jun 29, 2005 -> 08:44 PM) Shingo looks awesome! That could be the biggest development of this game. He had been more effective lately, but this may solidify that in Ozzie's mind, and in Shingo's mind.

If Shingo can get through this inning, we will see some huge swings in the 13th.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jun 29, 2005 -> 08:38 PM) Well. Freddy better be ready to go 9 tomorrow. Marte and Hermanson haven't pitched tonight. I'm sure Shingo can still go tomorrow, as well as Cotts. Politte probably should be shelved and Vizcaino shouldn't pitch.

Scott has to make of for his fielding gaffe right here.

Finally the fireworks finale. That had to be distracting to the hitters.

The Tiger bullpen looks like an offensive line.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Jun 29, 2005 -> 08:31 PM) 67 at-bats in april he had 11 walks. 102 walks in may and he had 12 walks. 75 at-bats in june and 7 walks. Not a good sign. Weren't 2 or 3 of them in the same game? The blowout of the Cubs?
