I can't blame you. The Tigers have been BAD for a while now, and as long as the Sox still make it to the postseason, its good for a team like Detroit to stick around for a little while...

 

 

Personally I think Detroit is going to fade like a cheap sweater in the wash. I just dont see their pitching holding up all season long.

Other than their Closer sucking ass why would you say that? What have you seen that I haven't?

Detroit won't fade, but if we win 95-100 games again this year, they won't keep up with that pace. The Tigers are good, but more like upper 80's to maybe around 90 wins good IMO.

Weren't you the same guy who said the Royals would be better than the Tigers? :P

Todd Jones is just not going to get it done. I know he has a large salary, but he should be pitching mop up IMO.

 

Agreed. I have no idea why Dombrowski brought him back to Detroit...the guy had a good year last year, big effin deal. I am going to go based on his entire career, which has been quite mediocre overall.

 

Kenny Rogers has surprised the hell out of me though. I don't know how this guy keeps going. That has been a very nice signing.

 

I am quietly hoping both you and Cleveland are in it towards the end, as well as Minnesota...not sure about anyone else, but I would love to see a great division race this year, and for years to come for that matter.

How 'bout no?

john buck with a solo shot, his first of the year.

 

royals 3, indians 2 5th inning.

I really despise you for calling them my Twins.

Former Cub John Koronka with ANOTHER quality start tonight, this time victimizing the Twins in Arlington. Man the Cubs gotta feel good about letting him go for nothing right about now.

Your Indians arent doing that well either ;)

 

2 men on, no outs in the bottom of the 5th. Slugger Doug Meintsomething is up to bat

Did I? I dont remember. Personally if the Tigers make the playoffs I'll be shocked.

 

As for Kansas s***ty? Well........They're better off playing AA teams these days.

4-2 royals. guys on 1st and 3rd with one out.

 

paul byrd still looks like a vulcan.

Paul Byrd f***ing blows, but it's not a surprise. He's gotta love that Indians offense though, he came into tonight with the convenience store ERA of 7.11, yet also with a 4-2 record.

great quote from indians announcers heading into the break:

 

"the royals get a pair this inning..."

 

lol.

These are the same people that didn't want the Sox to run away with the division last year. Then, when the gap started to close, they'd post the avatar with the guy choking. If the Sox win the division by 40 games, that would be just dandy with me.

Twins lose. Indians trailing the Royals 4-2 in the 7th.

And the Royals knock off the Indians 4-3. I believe they're 3-1 against the Tribe this year.

royals up 8-6 in the sixth on the indians. :headbang

 

make that 10-6. royals in the middle of a six-run sixth.

Damn those Royals. Coming up fast.

I never thought the Indians pitching would be this bad.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ May 9, 2006 -> 10:45 PM)
Im not sure whats worse, there staff or there pen. I trolled a Tribe board during spring just because I could :D , and thats all they could talk about with the Sox, is how bad the our pen is. My how have the tables have turned.....

 

To be truthful, theirs would be much better off with a healthy Betancourt and Miller, but I dont know if Miller could be counted on to remain healthy. Betancourt was put on the 15 day DL, right? He should probably come off soon.

And The Royals knock of the Indians once again. They're now 4-1 against them this year.

hmm

Gotta be careful with that...

 

I know the Tribe just lost two in a row to the Royals, but they have a whole week of playing the Royals and Pirates at home coming up.
