Quick two game series.

I only saw highlights from last night's game, but it seems like Leyland's early season lecture has brought these guys to life again this year.

It was 7-0 at one point, and Weaver threw like 70+ pitches in less than 2 innings.

I heard that Maroth was one out from qualifying for the win when Leyland pulled him, what was up with that? He's a bitch and moan kind of guy (Maroth) so that might be something to keep an eye on.

Game 2 is this afternoon at 3:30, Bonderman vs. Escobar

Nice to see Sheff hitting again. It's one game, but lets hope he catches fire. Casey, Thames, Monroe and Inge need to get going too.

Lineups:

Fuck a Neifi


C. Granderson cf
M. Thames lf
G. Sheffield dh
M. Ordonez rf
C. Guillen ss
I. Rodriguez c
S. Casey 1b
B. Inge 3b
N. Perez 2b

G. Matthews Jr. cf
O. Cabrera ss
V. Guerrero rf
G. Anderson lf
C. Kotchman 1b
K. Morales dh
M. Izturis 3b
J. Molina c
E. Aybar 2b

Bondo vs. Escobar

Why wouldn't he use Infante there instead? I think Leyland is great, but I'll never understand using Nefe.

Let's do this.

Picture removed due to premature sweepulation. This is your first warning. Trust me, you don't want a second.

okay, that was a jinx

All three Tigers struck out in the 1st, then the first 3 Angels got hits.

Still nobody out and 1-0 LAA of A.

Back to back fielding errors by Guillen, 4-0 Angels.

Guillen needs to be moved to 1B NOW!!!

Kill 2 birds, get Casey out of there.

Let Infante play SS and bat 8th.

Bonderman's ERA just jumped about a full run that inning.

We are getting Angelwned.

its because I bet on them. this damn vbookie is rigged against me.

I think the errors kind of shook Bonderman up. Escobar's owned us, he's like 8-0 career.

A comeback would be nice but we really need to win tommorrow and Thursday in the Chi.

Only Neifi can save us now.

if only placido were playing... yikes, looks like were taking one on the teeth this time.

I would have bet on the Angels if I knew Nefe was playing before betting.

ha ha, well played Vinny, I deserved that.

Don't look now folks, the tying runs are on base with nobody out!

3 and 3 outs remaining.

STOP FUCKING JINXING US.

Eh, sorry dude, I'll try to reverse it.

We'll probably still lose.

Bases loaded for Polanco.

thank god we're getting a placido pinch hit. good luck placido!

i loked rwi's! good luck granderson!

Polanco walks to make it 7-6. Bases still loaded for Granderson.

rats.

Pooh.

Damn.

Hooray, I'm for the other team!!!



You guys are probably too young to remember Schoolhouse Rock.

those low strikes are total BS

MAGGS!!!

MAGGLIO!!!

MAGGLIO!!!

(sorry, I'm on like a 45 second delay from MLB.TV)

What a game by Maggs, that was another goosebump moment.

Vinny, check your PMs.

e-ray is dictating what I post publicly

im loving shef. his bat isnt working at all, but he still has respectable obs. when his bat comes around, he'll be our mvp. and im only watching on gamecast, so no goosebumps, but that was beautiful ab by magglio.

nintendo rodney, zoom, or rollercoaster?

It's Jones.

ps: i dont think i could ever say enough times that pudge is not my tiger. even if pitchers love throwing to him (perhaps undervalued by me), i just cant stand his bat.

What's with the negative energy at a moment like this?

Watch out for e-ray.

wow, what a great HR by Maggs. I just turned the TV on to watch and was able to see it.

[smilie=llama_banan:

oh boy vlad on deck too

my opinion of Magglio's hair right now >>>> my opinion of Magglio's hair about 10 minutes ago

ps: i dont think i could ever say enough times that pudge is not my tiger. even if pitchers love throwing to him (perhaps undervalued by me), i just cant stand his bat.

Monroe and Inge are much worse with their bat than Pudge.

What's with the negative energy at a moment like this?

Watch out for e-ray.

goddamit your right. go tj! i believe!!

intentionalo here? we need to set up the dp.

2 outs, no dp

uh, gc must be on a timelag, i didnt see that sac fly .

fuck me

FUCK!!

doh.

FUCK

that was my double play ball, though. your still in it, tigers!

our order looks a lot better sans neifi.

Vinny, check your PMs.

I'm with E-Ray, keep it out of the PMs too! I'm deleting it, maybe that will help.

Is Zoom available today?

what happened to the game?

i would show our next pitcher this: http://www.veoh.com/videos/e182555YFE5sXrp before i sent him out there.

Can we get some PFP in before the next World Series please???

oh, we lost. fuck. gamecast said we were up 9-8 in the 10th. good job espn. way to completely fuck up.

Damn you Jones

Damnit. I saw Jones give up a double to Guerrero and I left to get something to eat. Shit rolls downhill.

Oh well, let's come back and destroy some Sox.

what is jones hitting on the gun these days? i'll stand by him as long as he's going 95 mph. but if that falls off at all its bp, and time for a new closer.

Jones hasnt hit 95 since 1992 or so.

IFHTJ

In For Hating (or hoaxing) Todd Jones?

It's much more personal than that.

Oh, you fucking hate Todd Jones?

Yes, yes I do.
