Viciedo takes it to the wall.

 

He hit it well?

Tie game in Detroit.

 

Alex Gordon dove for it and just missed it...this time "clutch anti-Dunn" Martinez comes through.

Edited by caulfield12

BTW, I predict Ozzie benches Viciedo on Friday and plays Dunn vs Verlander

Next Year

 

Pierre in LF?

Viciedo at DH or LF or RF or 3B

Quentin in LF or RF or DH

Konerko at 1B

Beckham at 2B

Ramirez at SS

Morel ? at 3B

AJP or Flowers C

De Aza in CF

Sure, trade your 2nd fastest bat in Viciedo for the slowest bat in the majors.

 

Makes sense, Ozzie. Go for it. Play Dunn and Rios. I dare you.

I love it when our #4 hitter grounds out softly

It's like the ball hits the bottom of the bat

Why in the hell do you want Pierre back? Where are Rios and Dunn going?

If that happens I would like to hear the rationale behind it from Ozzie, bit it might for sure

Who are you trading Rios for? Chone Figgins? Barry Zito?

Of course, we could have Carlos Beltran instead of Viciedo right now.

If you're Danks, why wouldn't you be looking for a 6 year deal? I think he can get one, something like 6/80 or 6/90. No way do we go there, and he gets dealt in the offseason.

Rios and Dunn are done in my book, but if Pierre isn't back at leadoff then it's De Aza there and Dunn the DH

I remember last year when he hit the ball hard basically every at bat.

It sucks that the day I get my first job offer (and accepted), Jake Peavy lays an egg. Awesome.

Not really. Got in on him. That's why it stayed in the park.

Next year's rotation:

 

Floyd

Peavy

Sale

Stewart

Humber

 

We'll hear all offseason that the fans didn't show up in 2011, and it was the fault of all the players.

It might be that all you can get is salary relief if you are lucky

congrats buddy!

Game basically over in Detroit unless KC can somehow score off Valverde.

 

2 two-out doubles. Detroit deserves the division, plain and simple. And Ozzie/KW basically just gave it to them by not making any changes to the roster or line-up.

They're just going to eat the rest of Dunn's contract after one really, really bad year?

Looks like we will lose a game in the standings.

You mean like a 3 month span? He was s***ty the 2nd half of the year, as he was a DP machine.

I would go after Danks and hard. Stewart is not ready in my opinion plus Buerhle stays a Sox

I'd actually listen to Figgins for Rios.

Must be nice to have positive additions made to your team at the deadline. Young, Betemit and Fister paying some big dividends for Tigers. That's two game winning hits for Betemit now.
