He should only use it when we get a big walk-off win or when Konerko hits another grand-slam. Too much of it will get really, really old.

Let's hope that Jose can go one more here and then hand it to Thornton for the 8th.

Castro's had some really, really, bad luck. He's missed two home runs by a combined 5 feet.

The Reds are a better team than Houston. They will get Volquez back and a rotation of Volquez, Cueto, Harang, Arroyo, and Owings isn't too shabby. Plus, that offense should hit. Votto's back now and I really don't expect Bruce to hit .215 all year long.

Greinke's been looking bad lately. This isn't exactly new.

And they gave him a record setting deal for a closer like 3 years ago.

When is Ozzie going to realize that BA is hitting like .130 against lefties this year?

Nix batting 5th? Hmm... Laffey's actually been pretty damn good against us in his career. 2-1 with a ERA in the low 3s.

Good win today. Bullpen sucked, but Mark battled and Paulie was just too damn awesome. 2 back still. Back in second.

It would be real nice to have him back after the ASB. I'd rather have him in Minnesota, but oh well.

2 outs. Get this damn game over with. In no way should the Indians only be down by 4.

QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 7, 2009 -> 09:52 PM) They can play Fields at 1st, 3rd and LF. Pie can't do that. There is no other backup 1B close to the majors now unless you count Flowers or Cook. I'd much rather see Flowers than Fields... Fields has much better potential at this point than Pie. If Fields just gets rid of that stupid hitch before he swings, he'd actually hit a damn fastball and hit some homers.

NO WHAT? Is this what Kenny calls good deals? Jesus...

PAULIIIIIIEEEEE! 3 HOMERS 7 RBI! BEAST!

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jul 7, 2009 -> 09:14 PM) TCM! I haven't heard that one in a while. Thanks for being useful today Alexei. Started that rally last inning.

8-3. Nice.

Last I checked, Royals have two on and one out in the ninth down 3. Edit: Now 2 outs. Damn. Double edit: Game...

Mark finds a way to battle it out again. We better hold this lead for him.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Jul 7, 2009 -> 09:00 PM) Tigs get Zack tomorrow no? The Royals got Verlander today and still scored 5. Both Verlander and Greinke haven't looked all that sharp as of late.

QUOTE (beckham15 @ Jul 7, 2009 -> 08:57 PM) i love perez...he should pitch against us every game our offense wouldnt look half bad...well except for BA He's given up 6 runs in 2 innings against us. How can you not love him?

5 run 6th. I'll take that.

QUOTE (Jimbo's Drinker @ Jul 7, 2009 -> 08:54 PM) Did Hawk give us another hell yeah?? That's #3.

A.J. sure didn't help Paulie's ovation.

QUOTE (TheBigHurt @ Jul 7, 2009 -> 08:51 PM) FLASHBACKS FROM 2005!!! You better believe it.

5-3. There ya go. Keep the line moving.
