"Defensive replacement" Raburn with an opposite field single..yeah no matter how you bundle that with a positive, that first part won't ever sound right.

Raburn with a single...earns himself at least one start this week...

biggunsbob[/color]]Jim better bring in a mop up guy... At least give it a shot..

A mop up guy? Worst than Valverde in a non save situation is coming in with men on base.

Tigers 9th inning,

Kelly takes outside, fastball drilled to deep right for a homerun, knee high fastball nice swing, runs into one there very nice and more playing time says Leyland,

Tigers lead 5 - 1, not a save situation now,

Santiago grounds over pitchers mound up the middle and shortstop makes the play,

Jackson takes slider outside, fastball strike call, slider away, on/off the corner but strike call, fly to right,

Raburn lines it through the hole at second and first for a single,

pitching change gomes,

Young takes outside, slider in the dirt blocked, fastball strike call, fly to left,

Tigers lead 5 - 1.

I yelled gone when he swung. Just missed it. Swinging the bat very well right now though

No reason to bring in Valverde.

Bring in Ryan Perry or somebody, they aren't going to blow a 4 run lead.

Looks like Jose, why? so stupid.

If someone gets on, he comes in anyway. Better for him to start an inning.

 

[kalinecountry]

Valverde in the 9th non save,
buckle up.

 

[dpinsea]

what a stupid stupid stupid idea to bring in papa grande in a non save situation. I don't care if it works it still makes no sense.

 

[biggunsbob]

I DO NOT AGREE WITH THIS.

 

[dpinsea]

[biggunsbob]
