  1. Yes, he seemed to want to criticize Granderson's community involvement.
  2. Williams and McCovey did it through the shift! And Mantle lefthanded.
  3. Yes, they are house pets. Tourist attractions in England.
  4. I'm not sure what Bannon has been arrested for but it has to have something to do with personal hygiene.
  5. We'll take it but jeez a closer with a WHIP of 1.37...
  6. I tip my hat to him. At the end of May I was measuring him up for a pine box.
  7. Kerry Carpenter's last 15 games: .844 OPS
  8. When you buy a ticket to watch Hutch, you don't get cheated - 84 pitches in 4 innings.
  9. It used to bug me when Willi and Harold were in the starting lineup but now I don't even care.
  10. The Jose King era in Toledo has begun.
  11. I hope so. Maybe Hinch will retract what he said about the Tigers' capabilities?
  12. It's not exactly rural Saskatchewan, it's a first nations reservation in a remote area. They have 10 times the drug problems there that non-Indigenous people would have. Thank goodness they did not have semiautomatic weapons.
  13. Alexander through 2 innings on 43 pitches, not likely to finish 5.
  14. How soon before Marvel introduces a Special Master?
  15. Absolutely right, he didn't "linger" anywhere.
  16. Having the field coaches involved in front office personnel decisions is what really stupid NFL teams do. Chris Ilitch needs help obviously but it has to be from outside the organization.
  17. That is not something that I am worried about yet. It gets stated as fact here on MTS but I don't recall Ilitch saying it. What he said was that AJ Hinch would assist with transactions in the absence of a GM. That's a long long way from being involved in the search process. So at the moment there is no cause for alarm unless I missed something.
  18. It's all about the money, always has been. If the Tigers offer the most money, they get the player. When a guy says "I want to play for a winner" he is in his early 30's, the Tigers shouldn't be signing people that old anyway.
  19. That's 3 catchers plus Cabrera. I don't think that a backup firstbaseman is something that you can afford.
  20. I've always admired patriots who stick their flag up the crack in their ass.
  21. Yes, Robson had one of these last year I think.
  22. I heard Sean Casey tell this story once, he was playing for the Red Sox and twice within a week he was thrown out at second trying to stretch a single into a double. After the second time he was extremely angry, and Terry Francona put his arm around his shoulder and they went for a short walk up the runway. When they got a safe distance away from the dugout Francona turned to him and said "are you sure you don't have polio?"
  23. Yes, those are the 4 guys I want to see in there.
