WTF?!? This is eerily similar to the 2006 series with KC.

The Tigers had a chance to put a stranglehold on the division with a sweep over the pathetic Royals.
WTF, Jarrod Washburn?
Zach Miner is probably a super nice guy IRL, but I hate his guts when it comes to baseball.

The Tigers were not supposed to sweep the rays, but somehow did. The Tigers were not supposed to get swept by KC, but somehow that happened.
It's the AL Central. No one will pull away until the last 10 days or so.

Every time I hear Jim Price say "WOW, WOW, WOW" I envy the deaf, and immediately search for a sharp object to jam into my ears.

i have no idea how washburn had that era in Seattle for so long. he's a fastball pitcher that cant even touch 90.
getting swept is a downer, but not a huge biggie. the thing that really hurts is verlander deserved a win last night and got a loss. he could have been alone in first for wins, and maybe took a step closer to the cy.

Zach Miner is the Nick Sheridan of the Tigers. Anybody who still thinks Leyland is even a half-decent manager at this point in his career is an idiot.

I am a full blown idiot
September 10th, 2009 at 9:32 PM ^
I'm a Leylandist.

Thank you. Tomorrow is your day

It's a .500 road trip. Not the end of the world.
It's like their west coast swing; I expected to get 2 from Oakland and wanted one from the Angels. The opposite happened but they still finished .500 on the trip.
Considering their road record for the season, I'll take it.

From here on out, it doesn't matter win or loss, as long as the Twins/Sox don't gain a game and it's one day closer to the end of the season. Time is on our side.

Well, the Tigers got swept. Hopefully Leyland can circle the wagons and bring this thing home.
