Hard to believe it's been 6 years already since that last WS, perhaps even harder to believe is that there are only 3 players on this team right now that were on the 2006 WS Team

Omar Infante
Ramon Santiago
Justin Verlander

Is that right? Did I miss anyone?

wow..

Zach Miner is a mudhen, but yeah looks to be it.

I thinks that correct.

 

[spockmaster]

theres a ton of guys from that team who are out of baseball now like pudge, maggs, cmoe, rodgers, etc. maybe more than are still in baseball on other teams. havent counted.

 

[spockmaster]

whyd you delete your post thumb? anyways, inge can only get one if we win and the team decides to give him one...which they probably would. id fake him out and give him a cracker jack ring.

I guess I'm bored.

still active players with other teams that at least made an appearance for the 2006 Tigers

Inge
Granderson
Rodney
Polanco
Jack Hannahan
Andrew Miller
Jason Grilli
Colby Lewis
Chad Durbin

I'm probably missing a couple somewhere..

I would hate that. He didn't do jack for us.

Because it was negative. Inge has that effect on me.

And I'm trying to be positive, we have a chance to win a WS, and even if we don't we still had a hell of a run after a lackluster regular season. Just seems silly to worry about Charles Brandon Inge and whether his contributions earn him a ring or not, assuming we actually win any.

Anyways, you must be a F5/refreshing bandit, because I deleted that post less then 30 seconds after I hit the post button, I figured nobody would see it.

lol i mustve just had really good timing.

 

[sggatecl]

Really glad they're trying something different than 06 with the simulated games. Good on Leyland for trying something new.

I wasn't thinking about Inge or his contributions at all...

But I'm OCD and now that you've put the idea in my mind, it's all I can think about.

Thanks a lot.

Inge had 20 plate appearances for the Tigers. Batted .100. Whined. Blamed others. No way should he get a dime or a ring.

The Tigers beat the Yankees in the ALDS then swept the A's in the ALCS and lost to the Cardinals in the WS.

This year:

The Tigers beat the A's in the ALDS then swept the Yankees in the ALCS and look likely to play the Cardinals in the world series.

Hopefully that's where the similarities end. Like someone posted, only the coaching staff and 3 other guys on this roster remember that...and us fans. Infante, JV was a rookie and Santiago is a bench player.

Looking more like Giants now.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Either or they're both good teams and I can't imagine we shutting them down like we did to the NYY.

i hope its the giants. i think we match up a bit better against them, and i dont despise them like i do the cards.


plus itd be nice to play someone else for once.

Well Beltran and Holiday are banged up, and their pitching is not great.

The Giants pitching, worries me with our hack-attack lineup.

Good pitchers, Detroit is like the '27 Yankees. Bad pitchers, Detroit is like the '03 team.

Maybe it will work to our benefit.
