Tigers vs. whitesox Game Thread September 13

It will be 4 since Cleveland's was 6 prior to today.

OK that is odd, I was going by the yahoo listed number it showed 5 before today's game started. now it shows 6, hell I even heard Rod or Mario indicate earlier tonight it would be 3 also. weird.

4 it is then

It's only because Cleveland has played 2 less games than Shitcago..

Mariners tied it up on the Yanks...2-2

Sure would be nice to chip away at the AL leader.

Seems like I never see most of the people who defend Leyland posting in the game threads....Kind of makes you wonder. Everyone is entitled to their opinion but when you watch all the games it's easier to second guess than it is just following the recaps or box scores.

Yep. You can totally draw a correlation between game thread posting and baseball IQ.

Or not...whichever.

Or I can just say what I see, not like I'm calling anyone out, just saying.

LOL Valverde is out there... How is that not a bad move? Well whatever hope he mows em down..

 

[tigermud]

Damit smokes, need to make sure valverde still has something left for the post season too. I really hate this decision tonight, IMO he hasn't been completely lights out for awhile now I hope we aren't over using him.

 

[dpinsea]

Much rather see al al here

 

[sggatecl]

i just can't wrap my head around how raburn can look so clueless at the plate for a half a season and then all of a sudden hit lights out.....

Its a mystery to us all.

Raburn-mudhen-shinebox = a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma.

Sure, well, you don't want your closer disengaged from 9th inning action for very long, save situation or no...

Waste him tomorrow? The division is in lock down mode.

JL can be a freaking moron but he has the team playing well. Terrible move by the way.

This is why we bitch and scratch our heads at times with Leyland.

At the same time he's already surpassed last years total Innings pitched before tonight

63.1 in 2011
63 in 2010

We are over using him this year and I only hope that doesn't bit us in the ass in the PS.

Wow...What a roll...

You know, that glass-half-full attitude of your is really infuriating at times...
