I wonder if Tigers fans are out there freaking out yet.

I have been attacking Derrek Lee. The dude doesn't deserve to step on the field. All he's doing is counting his money. The last thing he cares about is baseball. This team is going downhill fast.

 

This is one of the most ignorant statements I have ever read on this board (or I'm just missing the dripping sarcasm). Derrek Lee is one of the classiest guys on this team, not to mention one of the best Cub hitters.

 

 

This.

 

When it comes to this board, my theory is if in doubt it's sarcasm

Are the Tigers 0-5 in their last 5 games that count!?!?!?!?!?!!?

 

Are the Cubs?

Last regular season game, three playoff games, and first regular season game.

 

So yes.

[Ender]

The last regular season game didn't really count...

 

If I were a Tigers fan I'd be freaking out though, much more than a Cubs fan should be. Their bullpen really is a disaster and losing the game the way they did just validates a weakness on the team. Even if Wood flat out fails as closer the Cubs have a decent bullpen. I don't consider the Tigers the favorites in their division either, so every game they fall behind the Indians early is a big deal.

Am I nuts? I thought they won the last game. Didn't Rich Hill have a no-no going? A bunch of rookies dressed like pink bunnies and stuff at the end of the game? Or did they lose and I just didn't care because, well, we had just made the playoffs?

[David]

And yes, I realize I could just go on BR and check that out for myself, but I'm too damn lazy.

[David]

Ah, nevermind. They clinched on a Friday night. So that Hill game must have been on Saturday and there must've been some Sunday game I forgot about.

I also like the Tigers and yes, I'm freaking out. Bullpen's no good, starting pitching has no depth.
