Not sure I like the idea of Miggy continuing to hurt himself just to keep coming back the next day.. He needs rest..

he's going to have a nice little break in 5 days. Plus, who cares if he is playing nicked up? It's not like they need to save him for the playoffs.

I guess the few days of rest will have to come during the all-star break.

I think he needs more than the AS break rest. This is the perfect time to rest him, get him a nice 8 days. The team is done, I see no reason to continue to play him hurt?

as long as there is no risk of long term injury I say run him out there. He's making $28M a year...go out and play.

Long term injury he's had before.. I get the guy wants to play but what's 5 days? He's taken himself out multiple games recently.

DET Trainer(s) have a history of making wrong conclusions/diagnosis. Miggy needs to sit until after the All Star break on principal alone.

This is one thing we definitely see eye to eye on. Lingering injuries that last multiple seasons have been maddening.

Norris and any one sent down needs to go to double a they will learn faster.

 

[jas5lf]

Wow, Norris really sucks. He's getting hammered just about every start lately.

 

[tomdalton22]

Norris and any one sent down needs to go to double a they will learn faster.

how can they learn faster in double A?

 

[lonesometiger]

how can they learn faster in double A?

Learn quick to get out of there.

 

[tomdalton22]

Learn quick to get out of there.

ahhh...doubt that really works.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Not sure AA helps you learn faster. You certainly may look better since the competition is easier but faster, nope.

 

[Mitchrapp]

We should be busting this team.

 

[lonesometiger]

ahhh...doubt that really works.

They not getting it done at triple A. Push them down to show you are really not happy. Make earn there way back!
