I recently went to Detroit on my vacation, and was able to spend a little time in the ballpark. Went to the game on Sunday, August 30 - when Polanco hit a homer in the 8th to put the Tigers up and give Verlander his 15th win. Some pics (I'll hide them behind a spoiler tag, so you only have...

The most important thing to remember right now is, of course, that I'm on vacation -- and will be in Detroit Sunday to see Verlander and the Tigers thump the Rays!!! Whooooo! (What? Doesn't everybody vacation in Detroit? ;) ) Also, too, part of my vacation is being a groomsman in my...

Guillen sure looks like the answer so far. I get the feeling that in a month or so we'll look up and everyone will be talking about how the Tigers are something like 19-6 since Guillen's return and how his return was a turning point. I expect him to hit. And I expect it to be contagious. I'm...

All of us? Pffft. I think not. I don't bicker. It's beneath me. *walks away from thread with nose in the air" :p

Anybody think we're about to see a Tigers offensive explosion this weekend against Chicago? Me neither. :( I'm half-expecting four straight 2-1 losses.

First, Barry Sanders. Then, everyone else, including: Michael Jordan Mike Tyson Michael Vick Deion Sanders Rickey Henderson Mark McGwire Magic Johnson

I like the DH exactly how it is. One league with it and one league without it. People who like it can watch the league with it, people who hate it can watch the league without it. Works for me.

Disappointing loss today. I was really hoping to the Tigers take the series from the Twins. :( But I like their chances over the next week. The Tigers have Kansas City coming up, while the Twins are playing the Yankees. Nothing's guaranteed, but I know who I'd rather be playing. But...

Twins will be in first soon? Yeah, sure, if by "soon" you mean at least five games from now, seeing how they're four games back. And in third place. I mean, yeah, they're a good team and it could happen, but they're not exactly knocking on first place's door.

Huh. This Slowey guy has ten wins? Wouldn't know it from watching this game. Tigers up 6-0 in the third! Oh, and the red Tigers caps? EW. Do not want.

Maybe Galarraga's starting to come around? We can hope!

...aaand now we know why I'm not the manager of the Tigers. (I'd still like to see him as a starter though.) I'm not sure I'd recognize Magglio without all his hair.

Yeah, I don't see how they can keep running Galarraga out there. Time for him to spend a little time in Toledo. I'm no great Miner fan, but I think he'll give us a better chance to win each time out. What's Ryan Perry's background? Ever done any starting? I'd like to see what he could do...

I read Atonement not too long ago, and very much enjoyed it. Then I rented the movie. Tried to watch it on three different occasions and just couldn't get through it. Kept falling asleep. And you can add me to the list of those who liked The DaVinci Code, and Twilight. the Twilight series...

Well, I made myself a nice big salad and a couple pb&j's, and tossed them into my cooler along with an apple and a couple bananas .... a got a phone call that work is cancelled today because the yard we were gonna work at is too wet. So it all goes into the fridge. But yeah, that's probably...
