2012 AL Central Catch-All thread

Every once in a while, the slew of Hawk rants or the perception of umpire bias against us causes the Stockholm Syndrome to set in.

 

We actually start sympathizing with Harrelson and believing there is an umpiring conspiracy against us and that because he loses it pretty frequently with the umpires, that the majority are pretty bad at their job.

 

Well, it's about 75% complaining and 25% praising, which is human nature one would suppose.

 

Or the more likely reason, Hawk is a f***ing hack.

You have to think Angels are going to acquire another starter so they can stop pitching Jerome Williams (until Haren returns).

what a bad trade, hey the rockies knew he wasnt that good and sold high

Scherzer just threw a 98 MPH fastball on pitch 100 to K Bourjos with a runner on 3rd and one out in the 7th.

 

He's nasty today. Normally he gets K's with the change-up, but today his fastball is moving and blowing everyone on the Angels away.

 

8 swinging strikeouts, 1 looking through 7.

 

5-1 Tigers.

with him pitching like that and then verlander and fister, i really hope we find a really good starter

I think we're witnessing the end of the Indians "run" in 2012 right about now...

If the Indians are for real, we're about to find out.

 

3 at NY

4 at Bal

3 vs LAA

4 vs TB

3 at Tor

4 at TB

4 vs Bal

3 vs Det

3 at Min

3 at KC

3 at Det

 

If they can play these 37 games at 19-18, I'll give them credit. Wouldn't be surprised if they go 14-23.

 

An update:

 

at NY 0-3

at Bal 3-1

vs LAA 2-1

vs TB 2-2

at Tor 1-2

at TB 2-2

 

10-11 so far. All things considered, the Indians are hanging in there...so far.

Source: Hearing Fister for Snider is quite the possibility. Jays feel they have a log jam in the OF

 

#BlueJays may have to add a low minors pitcher like a McGuire or Wojciechowski to complete the trade. #FarrellBall

That makes zero sense. That would make the Tigers worse in 2012.

That is how I feel exactly. But this guy has broken stuff before, so I figured it was worth posting.

DO IT TIGERS. GET RID OF ALL OF YOUR STARTERS BUT VERLANDER

I saw a Toronto guy say that Snider was pulled from his AAA game flew to Boston last night, to potentially get called up to the big league club. Maybe if Lawrie needs to go on the DL.

Snider would make a lot more sense for us to replace Viciedo, after we traded for a starting pitcher.

 

Not that I'm advocating it...

 

Makes no sense for the Tigers, at all. They're currently down one pitcher until Smyly comes back, and he's struggled with staying healthy this year.

 

Turner got bombed his last time out.

lmao, that's hilarious.

 

Guthrie has fared alright against us before though.

And you thought Jonathan Sanchez was bad before, wait til he pitches in Coors Field!

 

Bad trade for the Sox, Guthrie is an alright pitcher if we have to face him this year vs KC

#Tigers are not serious players in the market for Zack Greinke.

Liriano continuing to improve his trade value.

 

Liriano has had an insane amount of swing and misses the last 2 game. its somewhere in the neighborhood of 50.

It's funny. Ryan has to be considering trying to re-sign Liriano (if they want to compete for the AL Central anytime soon), because he's far and away their best pitcher now. Unfortunately, the Mauer and Morneau contracts make that close to impossible.

With how inconsistent he is, I don't know how you could risk committing long-term money to him.

Indians are under .500, if anyone cares.

 

Also, I'm in favor of the Twins trading Liriano in the next 24 hours.
