chw42 Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 13, 2012 -> 10:49 PM) If you turn on ESPN right now, there's a story coming up that says "Tigers take Game 1" Which is surprising, considering they love the Yankees to no end.

chw42 Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 How long until they start using somebody else as closer? Valverde's given up 7 runs in his last 1.1 innings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleHurt05 Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 13, 2012 -> 10:49 PM) Cabrera is an awful "leader". Dotel got all pissed at him the other day because he wouldn't talk to reporters after Valverde blew that game in Oakland. When a journeyman relief pitcher is questioning your leadership abilities, you suck at being a leader. I hate all the clubhouse "rah-rah" chemistry BS, but there is something to be said for the difference between the Tigers dugout right now & the Cardinals last night after going down 6-0. What happened sucks, but there is still a game to be played. Pump the team up, you are a Triple Crown winner, tell them you will win the game if you get to bat again. Don't pout and cry. Another reason to root against the Tigers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another reason to root against the Tigers. Yep, still a tie game and in this park, you know it's very unlikely to go deep into the night. And the thing is even if the Tigers lose tonight, you still aren't in horrible shape this series. No reason to act like you're the Nationals and Drew Storen just ended your season.

Valverde's given up 7 runs in his last 1.1 innings. There is absolutely no way he comes out next save opp. Although Benoit & Dotel can't be giving much confidence to Tigers fans.

chw42 Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Why can't they have the virtual strike zone for every game? I hate it when they have to go replay for a strike zone overlay. This is so much easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
