Justin better bring his A-game because Lance Lynn will be tough to score on.

**MIguy** · 06-18-2012, 04:28 PM

No idea why but I have a good feeling about this game.

**sabretooth** · 06-18-2012, 06:07 PM

This would be such a huge game to win and continue the fans' good feelings. There's been way too much negativity around this team...they're very unbalanced and sloppy on D, but they still should be a division-winner at 90 wins IMHO.

Plus I hate St. Louis, of course.

Rats, I saw "L Lynn" there and I was hoping that it would be Loretta Lynn. Although, she'd probably be pretty tough to score on too.

We're going tonight. I'm really looking forward to this one! More so than any of the other games this year. I have a feeling it's going to be one of those days where I don't get a lot done at work, I'll be watching the clock all day.

Tonight is the first of twenty straight games without a day off.

Bout time, seems like there has been a day off between every series. Lets go something like 13-7, get over .500 and then start the last half the season.

I would like to see the tigers win the opening game of a series for once, hasn't happened since May 25th in Minnesota. 6 straight series we have lost the opening game.

Buncha numbers: 2006, 1968, 1935, 1934.

**hardysf** · 06-19-2012, 12:02 PM

This series opens up a really tough stretch of games for the tigers, and seven important games regarding any hopes of a wild card.

3vs St Louis
3at Pittsburgh
3at Texas
4at Tampa

If the Tigers went 7-6, I would be extremely pleased. They finish the first "half" with 4vs Twins and 3vs Royals, and would probably head into the all-star break above .500

Dang Cardinals!!

**Antrat** · 06-19-2012, 12:19 PM

Looking at the allstar voting results, I always thought I'd be happy when the day came that the Yankees and Red Sox didn't dominate the roster.
Now I see it dominated by Texas.

No doubt. Beltre over Cabrera is a joke. Ditto Nelson Cruz that high up in OF voting.

**john doe** · 06-19-2012, 02:15 PM

Make sure you vote for at least, Miggy, Prince, and Ajax, everyday and on each email account you have.

It's one blessing for me that the Tigers did not beat Texas in the ALCS last year. Not sure I could stomach losing again to the Cardinals. It's almost worth not winning the pennant to avoid that. Especially if they had lost the way Texas did, coming a few times within one strike.

**thefunk** · 06-19-2012, 02:56 PM

I'm not voting this year, or in future years either. the ASG is a joke, and I hate the thought of one of our guys getting injured while not playing for the tigers.

Whenever a Cardinal lands on our feeder we yell "Shoot it! Shoot it!" I felt a little bad when when we walked outside and found one dead on the driveway.

Hilarious. We have one nesting in our backyard. The kids will sure be sad tonight.....

No "Happy Verday" post?

BTW, Lynn has been mortal of late. Feel good about this one!

**thefunk** · 06-19-2012, 05:05 PM

If I were the Tigers, I would at least inquire about R.A. Dickey.

What a crappy night to go to a ball game. Sitting out in the sun when it's 90 something degrees is not a fun thing to be doing.

**IdahoBert** · 06-19-2012, 05:47 PM

Thank God Delmon Young is DHing. This one is in the bag.

I would kill a puppy to see this game tonight. Gimme that ticket or quit your whining.

**ToledoTigerFan** · 06-19-2012, 06:44 PM

A classic pitchers duel. Final score......

Tigers 3

PLAY BALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

**Gehringer_2** · 06-19-2012, 07:12 PM

Curve looks good already. Best thing to see early in a game from JV, unless you are a Card...

**Juck Verllo** · 06-19-2012, 07:13 PM

1 hit no runs for JV. I'll takr every time...

Hits. Runs. I. Want. Them.

**thefunk** · 06-19-2012, 07:15 PM

So, all set up to watch this on MLb network, and it's blacked out.

I called directv and they said that another party bought out the rights to this game(???) and that Directv can't show it....

what the HECK does that even mean?
