I don't hear a lot of Detroit games but Allen is a solid broadcaster.

Gordon's glove has been sexy.

 

Gotta be frontrunner for GG.

Nope, they'll give it to Cano for his hitting and for being a Yankee.

 

It's always the most difficult to win your first. If Gordon was hitting like he did in 2009, he'd get a lot more publicity.

No chance with Cano and Pedroia.

Well I know what my opinion is, and it seems that the Sox agree with it (De Aza not even being on the MLB roster). So Im pretty confident that Rios is a better player than De Aza, could De Aza in 1 season put up better stats than Rios in 1 season, sure.

 

The fact is that De Aza (in small sample size) has a career ba of 242 and ops of 610

 

Besides for this year, Rios has never had a ba under 240 and ops below 610. Im pretty comfortable starting Rios with his career numbers over De Aza, but I understand that for some the grass is always greener.

Wow, a rare Pierre stolen base.

 

Great slide by Juan, missed the tag.

 

Looks like he tagged the sleeve/jersey....we got a break there.

Well, he sure looked out to me...

Cano seems lazy at 2B to me. Makes nice plays once in awhile but not as solid as Beck. Probably right about GB getting hosed. We saw it last year at SS.

Doesn't hit well enough for it.

Good thing it isn't the Silver Slugger award

I know that, you know that, the BBWAA doesn't.

Way to go Konerko!

2 out hitting with RISP.

 

Nice. Hanging slider spinning up there.

 

Good to see us piling up some singles and moving the line.

Oh hey, John Shelby's dad or grand dad.

 

Remember him?

WHAT THE HELL?!

 

Paulie, what'chu doin'?

Wow, didn't know Dunn had the 2nd worst batting average at the ASB since 1950. His bat speed still isn't there, but thankfully he had the seeing-eye single when it mattered.

Prevented Crede from winning a couple

Thanks for pitching to Paulie with 1st base open

Jackson is throwing some terrible offspeed pitches this inning.

Gotten beat on 2 change-ups so far this inning.

 

Need to get Boesch/Ordonez b4 Cabrera comes up.

 

Keep pumping those fastballs on Boesch's hands, thanks.

 

Nice recovery from Edwin. Always seems to pitch pretty well against his former team. Getting that ERA into respectable territory again, and limiting his pitch count.

Nice work by Jackson.

Excellent!

So Badger, let me ask you this: what do you feel Rios provides this team right now?/

Mark Teahen has been competent lately.

If Danks is starting WED against the Royals, when is Peavy going?

 

Santiago back to BIRM to start?
