Detroit Tigers World Series Thread

If he stayed in the minors he would either:

 

Pitch in relief and completely dominate A ball (he's already doing that)

 

or

 

Be shutdown for the season

 

He's not losing any development time, and it is generally believed that he can get big league left handers out right now.

 

Edit: Seriously, "getting alot more innings down in the minors" is about the worst thing I can imagine, we really don't need another Kenny Baugh.

I'll just say there is a good shot that he gets knocked around right away. If that does happen then there is also a decent chance that he can get pretty effected mentally, thus setting back his development back a few years. I'm not saying that's going to happen but there is definitely a chance.

Leyland actually seems pretty supportive of the move.

Thanks for the clarification.

 

It still surprises me. I thought Miller was impressive in the college world series but not impressive enough to suggest that he's ready to step out of that into the fire of a major league pennant race. Then again, everything Leyland does seems to work this year. If he jumped into a pile of s*** he'd come out with a golden turd in his mouth. So Miller will probably dominate.

how about Detroit drops a doubleheader and the sox pick up 1.5 games today, 2 in the loss column?

 

Yeah...I like that idea

 

why the hell is dimitri young hitting 3rd today? why did they drop Irod down in the order?

Detroit's lineup today looks worse than anything the White Sox ran out last year.

Mags loves playing in Yankee Stadium - can't believe he's not in the lineup.

Wouldn't it be super duper spiffy to be 3.5 games back of Detroit in about 10 hours?

Yes indeedee. But if Captain Nate keeps escaping trouble like this...

1-0 Yanks on a solo shot by Craig Wilson.

2-0 yankees

 

it's amazing how ineffective a-rod has become. I still think he's the best player in the league.

Right now, he's not even the best 3rd baseman in the league. If nothing else, he's been outclassed in every aspect of the game this season by Joe Crede.

Joe's the man.

 

Getting close to Rivera time in the Bronx. Yankees have really let gumboy off the hook today.

NY letting detroit stick around. Bad idea.

 

Torre's an idiot.

Andrew Miller sees his first action. Comes in during the 9th, retires Cabrera, Hits Wilson, retires Damon and Jeter.

As long as he uses Rivera in the 9th, he's a genius.

Miller looks good. Nice heater to go with the breaking stuff. Gotta be a tough place to make your debut.

Miller is the sh**, amazing stuff and I fear for the next few years seeing him Bonderman, Verlander, Zumaya, Humberto Sanchez all with the Tigers in the near future.

4.5 out. :)

4 back in the loss column.

 

3 by tonight?

She’s a good girl,loves her mamma, loves je -sus, and america

too.

She’s a good girl, crazy ‘bout elvis, loves horses,

and her boyfriend too.

And it's a long day, livin’ in

reseda, there’s a freeway, runnin’ thru the yard

And i’m a

bad boy, ‘cause i don’t even miss her, i’m a bad boy, for

breaking

And i'm free, free falling.

Yeah

i'm free, free falling.

And all the vampires

walkin' through the valley move west down ventura

Boulevard.

And all the bad boys are standin' in the

shadows, and the good girls

Are home with broken hearts.

 

I wanna glide down over mulholland i wanna write her

name in the sky.

I'm gonna free fall out into

nothin', gonna leave this world for a while.

Just kept pounding the ball into the ground..

 

To the guy who asked why DMeat was third-

 

He plays against righties, and Pudge is dropped down because Dmitri is more of a power threat than him. It has been like this for a couple weeks now.

As good as Detroit's pitching and clutch hitting have been, their defense has been absolutely wretched this season.

Wang is a different pitcher in the Bronx than he is on the road. Unfortunately Robertson looked good (although he did escape some jams). I was hoping that he would continue to stumble.

Guillen is the only one that has been horrible. Ordonez and Thames not good either.
