Reason 17 this team deserves to be booed: They should be ashamed of themselves for the way they've played in the second half, AND THEY AREN'T.

6-2. plenty of time to get back into the game.

here they come!

Two out single in the first.

 

Leadoff double, ground out and sac fly in the 2nd ...

 

Good job hitters....now if Alexander just hadn't run in that touchdown we'd be in good shape. Still early.

wow so much enthusiasm...so young.

wait nevermind.

Good gosh...just like ringing a bell. We score, we give it back. Pathetic McCarthy and I've been one of your biggest fans in here, but this is getting ridiculous.

Hey Tyrus Thomas, you suck.

lol

As far as next year is concerned, we're actually in a terrible position in comparison to the Tigers and Twins.

It doesn't matter how bad he's been this year. Once he gets into the rotation, he'll turn everything around.

 

edit: whoops, I meant rotation

i am wondering if KW is kicking himself for not pulling the BA & BMac for Soriano deal.

 

Keep the same team as last and at the allstar break trade for soriano? that sounds like pretty good hindsight.

How do you figure? Liriano is out all next season, radke is done. Detroits pitching will regress just like ours did this year maybe not nearly as much as we did but there will be regression couple that with the fact that they strike out way to much and thats not a good sign.

 

We will be dealing for a posisiton of strength this offseason and LF should come for our farm, SS and the BP needs to be addressed other than that. I don't see alot that needs to be addressed with this team.

Im sorry, what?

Hes most likely heading under the knife for TJ.

Is that speculation or has that been reported?

Good grief, give up the whole "keep the same team from last season" routine. How would you acquire Soriano? Did you really want Duque in the starting rotation?

thats the latest i had heard from ESPN, when he went down, on Mike & Mike.

I'm sorry, who's playing CF if that happens?

We have a very good chance of finishing up last in the AL Central during the 2nd half of the season. That is absolutely pathetic.

Minny is going to be around all year, but I dont buy the Tigers coming into next season. Unless they make some pretty significant changes to that lineup, it doesnt scare anyone, and its getting older.

 

They still have strong starting pitching, and every indication is that their owner is going to be very active in the FA market. They're going to be a definite threat for the AL Central crown next season.

Actually, I believe what was reported was that he was definitely gone for the rest this season (including postseason). This is what I found:

 

Sep 14 Liriano does not have structural or ligament damage to his left arm, an MRI scan revealed. The Twins called the test results "favorable" and said he has begun a rehabilitation program with the goal of being ready for the start of the 2007 season. The Twins' left-hander left Wednesday's 1-0 loss to Oakland in the third inning after feeling a pop in his arm. It was his first start since missing a month because of a strained ligament near his elbow.

 

Sep 16 Steve Herrick, of Minnesota.Twins.MLB.com, reports Minnesota Twins SP Francisco Liriano (elbow) will likely get a second opinion on his elbow in order to find out what is causing him problems. While the original diagnosis said he wouldn't require any surgery, general manager Terry Ryan said he wouldn't be surprised if some kind of minor surgery is needed.

Pure Spec. Liriano will be back by Spring. Will he stay healthy? That is a different story.

Im mearly stating what i heard(on behalf of ESPN), but will say this as fact; he throws his slider 45% of the time and his mechancis are horse s***, if he can't sustain health all season & radke is out, i expect them to strugle.

That's about the 20th time that Thome has started running to first base, and then got called out either looking or on the check swing.

this hurts even more when the Twins and Tigers are losing.
