I giggled.  And then realized that the whipper snapper was younger than me.

I think it would be awesome if Bartolo could find a way to hang on until he was 50 years old.

Not a chance my friend.   Tune in tonight to watch the Tigers finally cleanse MLB of this Colon character.

Bartolo?  More like Fartolo.

Solid joke. 10/10.

Interesting fact that not many people know, but dean Palmer had to give up his capital D when he came to the tigers because Dmitri was already using it and wouldn’t give it up.

Tigers are 16-17 this year when I'm at the game. Need a win tonight

[LooseGoose 417]

Looks safe to me......but very close.

[LooseGoose 417]

Call stands - out.   

 

So out at 2nd on a sac and out at 2nd on a steal attempt.

I hope Jake gets it done. 

[LooseGoose 417]

2-1 Tigers after 5.

 

Victor Reyes is my new great hope.   He looks a lot more comfy at the plate.

[LooseGoose 417]

Zimm through 6 with 1 run allowed....dare we dream?

 

 

[LooseGoose 417]

2-1 Tigers after 6.

 

I rag on VMart enough - I'll give him credit for really legging that grounder out, he made it kinda close.

[sabretooth 231]

t's no dream, Zimmermann is a very effective pitcher at fhis point.

He has a decent fastball and effective slider and a rejuvenated curve....even with a little k-to-swinging strike regression, the current performance level is sustainable.
