If he keeps up his ace quality, Detroit will have trouble paying all of those guys.

Meet Your 2013 AL champs: The KC Royals? Why not them?

Aren't all their pitchers coming back from Tommy John Surgery this year? "Getting back to where you were beforehand" tends to take 18 months.

 

And Hosmer...

Royals lost Lorenzo Cain for the season (and for the next series against the Sox).

I dont think he is losing anything. That stadium seems packed.

Forbes thinks their revenue lat year was $8 million lower than ours

What about their expenses other than salary?

 

And perhaps our owners are making money hand over fist.

 

But that is an interesting figure, thanks.

Error gives the tigers 1 run lead in the first.

 

2-0 now on a hit in the extended inning.

I'd rather face Cain than Dyson. He hits our pitchers well and all of our starters tend to focus on him when he gets on base as opposed to the batter.

Max Scherzer's ERA by month: 7.77, 4.04, 3.86, 3.62, 2.25, 1.23

 

 

RIODSSSS!!1one!

 

I heard a black MLB helicopter landed in the Tiger's dugout on Thursday but the league declined to comment. The boxcar children tried to find out but no one has seen them since last week. Leyland had something to do with it, they found an unfinished copy of the report they were writing for SI in his van.

When I went to Detroit I noticed Prince Fielder's walk-up music was "Down For My N****s."

 

I lol'd. Not sure the stadium full of white people knew what that meant.

What happened to Scherzer?

 

Scherzer pulled after 2. No word on why.

they're saying fatigued right shoulder, needs MRI. See the game thread.

No structural damage apparent in the MRI, will be reevaluated in a few days.

Miguel Cabrera has a .797 SLG and a 1.223 OPS in September. I know Mike Trout is getting love for the MVP, but Miguel would get my vote right now.

Guy may win the triple crown there really should not be that much of a debate.

10 years ago, Cabrera would be the favorite. Since WAR has entered the discussion and the importance of defense has become magnified, Trout is suddenly the much more popular picks.

IMO If neither the Angels or the Tigers make the playoffs Miggy gets it, if the Angels make it then Trout gets it.

 

Just like my thoughts on CY Young, if the Rays dont make it I think Sale should get it, if the Rays make it I think its a toss up.

Josh Willingham hit HR #35 last night, the first Twin to hit at least 35 since Harmon Killebrew in 1970. amazing.

He also has 110 RBI.

Steal of the offseason. Can't believe he went to the Twins and no contenders wanted him.

Is Oakland throwing this series? Seems like it.
