    Ok, who wants to bet we leave Izturis in here?
  2. Rob
    Theriot freaking smoked that. I was sure it was out...

    Saying someone is on steroids just because he's having a big year is about as old as Julio Franco. He is murdering every number he has ever put up and it is barely june. He could just be Benito Santiagoing. Wasn't that steroids too? No, just a freak year in the HR column. Actually, I wanna say he was implicated in the Grimsley scandal. I thought Canseco dropped his name as well, but it has been a few years since I read that book. I think you could be right on that one as well.

    Saying someone is on steroids just because he's having a big year is about as old as Julio Franco. So are Julio Franco jokes.

    Wow. Floyd sure made that one pay.

    They don't have a choice. The Cubs next off day is 6/18 and their short. Eyre up in the 'pen means they are willing to sacrifice this game. Which is why it hurts having a billion outfielders on the team. Or we could just can Scott Eyre and replace him with a real long reliever.

    So far tonight Trammel has ordered a sac bunt from Pie in the first inning, and left Cesar Izturis in to bat with the bases juiced and two outs against a struggling pitcher in a crucial situation. Honeymoon = over
  9. Rob
    Cesar Izturis should never be allowed to carry a bat to the plate in crucial situations... even if he's just giving Aramis a new one after a broken bat foul ball.

    Now would be a great time to bring in a pinch hitter.
  11. Rob
    Fingers? :lol: Why do you think they call em fingers? You never see em fing. Oh, there they go.
  12. Rob
    Fingers?
  13. Rob
    Disappointing... but thanks for the heads up.
  14. Rob
    Gah, so close.
  15. Rob
    I saw him in the dugout earlier In the dugout? I wonder why he wasn't in the pen. No deli spread in the bullpen.
  16. Rob
    Ahhh, of course.
  17. Rob
    I seem to recall a few years ago when Matt Clement was pitching against Alex Cora for 14 pitches. That went much quicker.
  18. Rob
    yup Good god... Trammell now makes me miss Lou, who almost makes me miss Dusty. This is sad. Why can't we get a competant manager?
  19. Rob
    I wasn't paying close attention. Were we just trying to sac bunt in the first freaking inning?
  20. Rob
    Can you play 20 questions on a message board? Is it a righty?
  21. Rob
    My prediction: Barrett to the DL. Gallagher is gonna be our backup catcher.
  22. Rob
    For some reason, all I can think of at times like this is my high school chemistry class. Mr. Davenport would not let us rest until we balanced the equation, so I'm freaking out right now not knowing what on earth is going on to counter Gallagher coming up.
  23. Rob
    Whoa.
  24. Rob
    Who here thinks that? He really improved the team from when he took over. They just kind of stagnated their 3rd year. My dad who is a diehard Tiger fan was telling me 2 years ago how good the Tigers were going to be last year. So yeah I think Leyland did kind of walk into a good situation and Trammell kind of got thrown under the Bus. I also think Trammell deserves more Hall of Fame consideration than he gets Not just consideration. If you look at his numbers, he's a no-doubter.
  25. Rob
    I don't like Gathright by any means... but I wouldn't say no to acquiring him if we can get him for a nothing piece like Novoa or Eyre. It'd be nice to have him in the system just in case he proves that he can actually keep that OBP in the stratosphere with another year in AAA.
