Bonderman38 Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 Tigers down 2-1. Ninth Inning. Monroe gets a lead-off triple. Then is promptly stranded at third. I guess they can't do it every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoRowand33 Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 they are mortal too I'm pissed the sox can't take advantage of the tigers weakness because their lead should be down to atleast 4.5 right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Detroit acquires Neifi Perez from the Cubs for a class-A catcher who is mainly a good defender. Watch out Chicago, Neifi Perez is coming to town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch out Chicago, Neifi Perez is coming to town. He's just going to back up Infante, Guillen and Inge. Better than Santiago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonderman38 Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 I guess Perez is starting. Horrible trade by the Tigers. Hopefully Infante gets traded so he doesn't have to deal with this bs anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phuck the Cubs Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 I really, really hope that Leyland gives Perez as much playing time as Dusty did. Does Dave Dombrowski think he's Jim Hendry?? Anyone read his comments in the paper this morning?? He thinks highly of Neifi the way Hendry did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone read his comments in the paper this morning?? He thinks highly of Neifi the way Hendry did. Have you seen the other options that Leyland has in the infield now that Polanco's out? The strikeout happy Omar Infante who is far too error prone in the field for a possible playoff bound club and Ramon Santiago who can field his position fine but couldn't handle a bat if his life depended on it. Rest assured, if and when Placido comes back, Perez won't see the light of day unless there's another injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perez is just like Santiago, can lay a bunt and play defense, can't hit worth a lick. Infante is a downgrade at defense, but you are underrating him because of the game in Texas.

Phuck the Cubs Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 Neifi is good to give a guy a day off here and there and provide late-innings defense. I would go w/ Infante until the 7th or 8th inning and then bring in Neifi for his defense. He is not an everyday player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitewashed in '05 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Aug 23, 2006 -> 10:23 PM) Do Tiger fans like the announcing crew? I really have not heard that much of them, but what I have heard, I kinda like them. For the Tiger fans that do listen to the two of them, are they any good? I am neither a Tiger fan nor do I listen to their commentators, but I do notice whenever I do hear them that they give credit when credit is due. Their not too bad thats for sure.

loltrain Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 I would say it's about 80% love and 20% dislike. I personally like them, but I can see how Rod's assorted catch phrases and whatnot might annoy some people Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3E8 Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 Andrew Miller is getting a callup in time for the Yankee series after pitching five innings in the minors. There was a stipulation in his contract which required a 2006 callup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh he's the real deal but bringing someone up just months after being drafted could prove to be a huge mistake. And yes I know that he has that clause in his contract but there is a possibility that this callup could really hinder his development.

Phuck the Cubs Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 Why would the team allow such a stipulation. The only agent who I can think of that would be a big enough dick to do such a thing is Boras. Is Boras his agent? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't imagine that Leyland would do that to a kid but you gotta believe he's a bit pissed that an unproven rookie and his agent are dictating his roster. Leyland actually seems pretty supportive of the move. Miller had a clause written into his contract that he would be called up to the majors this year, but Leyland said that wasn't the driving factor in the decision. "Miller's the guy I wanted," Leyland said. "It has nothing to do with coming up in September. He's not coming up here on a pass. I'm going to use him, I promise."

This guy has a great arm, but he wasn't dominate at times against some of the better collegiate teams. I expect him to be completely overmatched and its a joke that he has a clause that would hinder his development (and him pitching at the major league level right now, which won't happen as he'll probably rot on the bench, is going to hinder him because he could have been developing and getting a lot more innings down in the minors).
