OT: Detroit Tigers 8/29
Well, trailing 2-0 in the top of the 4th, the defense has really let Robertson down so far. In 3 of the 4 innings so far, the defense has forced him to get an extra out. Again, there have been an early inning failure to score when an opportunity presented itself (1st and 2nd, none out). C'mon boys. David Price has an 8+ ERA on the road. Let's start scoring some runs! Go Tigers.

"O" is helping him either.... grandy with runners on 3rd and 2nd takes a big fat K..... and then palanco swings at the 1st pitch and pops out..... tigers have issues with bad pitchers, they mske them look like all stars.

I covered that in the 2nd half of the post.

the sac bunt by everett to get the runners over to 2nd and 3rd... thats what i was referring to.
August 29th, 2009 at 5:41 PM ^
to it in the part where i said runners on 1st and 2nd with none out where we didn't score.

who cares.... all i know is that i heard the annoucers say that the tigers and runners at 1st and 2nd earlier in the game. and thats what i thought you were talking about. so i didn't mean to try and steal your thunder....

David Price has legitimate stuff... I can't stand to see the Paul Byrds, Brian Banniser's and Carl Pavano's of the world eat the Tigers alive...
Off Topic MichFan but I have a retraction to make (I guess it was more to Yinka Double Dare, but regardless....) Messed around with some regressions after the "OT - AL CENTRAL PREDICTION THREAD" and Edwin Jackson really stood out as having a very large residual regarding what his ERA should be... I don't really follow the National League much, but Jonathan Sanchez has a .883 In-Play Slugging percentage, yet his ERA is only 4.27. Of course he K's 25% of the batters he faces, but regardles... Hitter are averaging almost a base every time they put the ball in play... (Contrast that with Clayton Kershaw, who is only at .400...)

our O is pissing me off. with all the guys we have you'd think offense would not be one of our problems.

I'm going to figure out a way to blame this on Rodney, even if he doesn't get in the game.

happens when Rodney pitches (winning) maybe we should bring him in.
