Another Stinker From The Tigers...

Although THIS ONE took 5 hours / 14 innings to complete-----UGH!

And, by the way, where do the Diamondbacks get-off scoring 11+ runs on the Mets?!?

Folks................................... ........................................ ........................................ ........................................ ........................................ ........................................ ........................................ .................................basebal l's a wierd game

[dannyd66]

A Day of Predictability:



Robertson (Marlins) Got Rocked...........Carpenter Shut-Down The Phillies......the Brewers & Pirates (both of whom have NO pitching) put up 20 + runs like warm milk through a mother's nipple..........any thoughts?!?

[dannyd66]

I Don't Care Who It's Against!!!!!!

The Pirates: 24+ Runs against the Brewers in 2 Days??????!!!???????

I mean, I know the Brewers' Bullpen is horrible-------but most of that damage was done in the first 3 innings of those 2 games!!!!!!!! I have no explanation. Do you?

Does anybody?

And do the Pirates have enough talent to hold a "Fire Sale?!?"

Would they want to?

-------------hard to believe that's where Jason Bay started---------------

Questions to ponder, my friends...............

[dannyd66]

Give Me A Break

Lackey (Angels) with a 4+ E.R.A., throwing a no hitter into the 8th @ SafeCo field??????????????

C'mon!!!!!!!! I know they're the Mariners--------but C'MON!!!!!!!!

The Watered-Down hitting makes me sick!
Doesn't it, you?

[dannyd66]

Halladay @ Home

Can't pick against him-----or Lincecum---------or Ubaldo-----------but ESPECIALLY, Josh Johnson---------mark my words, again, folks.........




G'night!

[dannyd66]

For those of Us Rooting Against Ubaldo...

Hee-hee. 6 Walks in 2 innings---------gotta love it!

[Whippit]

feelin jipped didn't bang snuggles....just not my night but wsay hi to dannyd65

[Bigpete2010]

Thats what im talkin bout!!!

[Whippit]

my cat is pretty big, and a sparrow is, well, sparrow sized, so no effin idea why he’s scared of them…had me giggling like a loon

[dannyd66]

Is Anybody Else HUNGRY FOR FOOTBALL????!!!!????

Ah, Yes, but this is a "baseball-column".....

So............Can Anybody believe that the tigers (with their 33 & 1/3 % Minor league Lineup could beat the Jays, tonight?.? Well, they did..................OUCH!

[dannyd66]

Yowza! Garza! Garza!

Again, as I've stressed on soooooooooooo many occasions, this year, a pitcher with a 4.5 + E.R.A. starts a game and throws a no-no (1 walk away from a perfect game, I might add). This was the fifth one this year, and that's not counting Armando Galarraga's game.

Is it just me? Does anybody out there really appreciate this brand of baseball?!?

[dannyd66]

O.k.o.k.o.k.o.k.

My boy, ol' Josh Johnson (Marlins) didn't have his best stuff tonight--------a measley 3 runs over 7 innings.....shame...shame.......shame... ..

WAINWRIGHT (Cardinals), on the other hand, got SHELLED!!!!!!

Ummmmmmmm, Johnson's closest competitor for the N.L. Cy Young-------throw-out Ubaldo (Rockies) and then, again, Doc Holliday's in the mix......... so, hmmmmmmmmmm.......



Whom do you like?

[dannyd66]

Oh. those tigers.......

Does anybody remember when the Rays were the dregs of the league?!?

[dannyd66]

O.K. Please Let Me Beat A Dead Horse--

RE: Annibal Sanchez


Away @ San Francisco and he pitches a 1-hitter..........C"MON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! C'MON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

First, Neise (Mets), then Galarraga (Tigers), then Travis Wood (Reds), now---SANCHEZ (Marlins)??????????????????????????????? ???????????????????????????????????????? ???????????????????????????????????????? ???????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????


Tell me the hitting's not "watered-down."


'Nuff---

I mean, "Enough" said.

Indeed.

[dannyd66]

Well, everybody....

looks like Carpenter was the pick for tonight---------------at least going into the 8th inning......


who'd y'all have?????????

[dannyd66]

The Hottest 3 Hitters In Baseball:

1) Dan Uggla - Marlins

2) Carlos Gonzalez - Rockies

3) David Ortiz - (Duh!---unless you've been living under a rock for the last decade---)



If you care to, add-up the individual stats on these players for the last week.........you, like me, will probably just end-up shaking your head.................................... ........................................ ..................

[dannyd66]

Question!

How does Scott Shields hold that potent Yankee lineup to zero runs...........now I know the obvious answer is because A-Rod had the day off, but really............can somebody think of something else?????????????

[dannyd66]

Cahill------cahill

CAHILL:

Anybody disagree???????????!!!!!?????????????

RE: Cahill ... Cahill .... Cahill

[dannyd66]

Ideas & Lead Balloons

Any ideas out-there on how the Tigers can stop sinking like a lead balloon?

[dannyd66]

How Come...?

How come NOBODY responds to my column, here?

Am I that insulting or UN-insightful????????!!!!!!!??????

[dannyd66]

Lincecummmmmmmmmmmm got beat

Mark my words, people: Josh Johnson (Marlins) WILL WIN the NL CY Young Award.... any detractors????!!!!!!!?????

[dannyd66]

Tori Hunter

So, clue me-in, folks.........got any ideas as to what was said to set him-off, tonight???????????

This could be very funny!

[dannyd66]

Again, I hate to belabor the point, but........

Here's a mathematical equation for ya':

Tigers - Magz, Guillen, & Inge 9for a while) = LEAD BALLOON

[Whippit]

Speaking of swinging from the fences, trashday's around the corner but since I’m already bored with the Tudor and rarely go into town anyway, the whole week I’ve had maybe 4 beer

[dannyd66]

Here We Go Again................

MORROW (B-Jays) comes within a hit of a no-hitter?!??

C'mon............


Anybody who has been reading my post KNOWS how much this has been PISSING me-off!!!!!!!!!!!

[Whippit]

so I figure you swipe your loyalty card to get a trolley, the technology we have means anything put into the trolley shows as a sub-total on the handle

[dannyd66]

There's Nothing That Ticks Me-Off More Than...

A Bullpen blowing a lead from a pitcher who has thrown his heart-out for 7-8 innings (especially in HOT, HUMID HEAT)!

When justice OR rightful cumuppances are not realized, I get really peeved!!!!!!!!!!

U?

[dannyd66]

Allright, let's simplify that mathematical equation:

Tigers = Lead Balloon

[dannyd66]

Lee vs. Weaver

Let's face it folks.......................one of these two gentlemmen will take the A.L. CY YOUNG (we already know who's got it for the N.L. : Josh Johnson (as I called it two months ago)).

What's the concensus say out there, in baseball-land???????!!!!!???????

[Whippit]

Gavin Floyd 2010 AL Cy Young

[dannyd66]

Santana

Not the music.........the pitcher........

Looked like he has had enough of takin' it on the chin, lately---------quite the DOMINANT performance, today.

Santana of old.

[dannyd66]

I'm Due.....................

O.K. my trummpinn' of Josh Johnson took a hit tonight----but I do, indeed, stand by my pick.

Salute!

[8ArIvd5]

Survey says..........







Adam Wainwright?

[dannyd66]

Where The Hell?????????????????????????

did Diego (Padres not Dora's main squeeze) get Richard & Latos? My God, did ya check-out Latos' stats today (before the bullpen-help blew it for him)? 9 ks through 4-5 innings-------sshhhewwwww...& with an E.R.A. under 2.5???!??????

Looks like my pick of Josh Johnson (screw Ubaldo) for the N.L. CY YOUNG will have a little competition!!!

Don't all you hometown fans (for wherever you live) wish you had as well have developed farm system (specifically, pitching) as the Padres do?????!????

No wonder they let Hoffman go....................
