Howdy Lulz, I think your right. It is really been ugly. Cant catch, cant field, cant hit, cant stay healthy, cant pitch...whole lotta cant goin' on.

http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/gameday/index.jsp?gid=2014_08_12_detmlb_pitmlb_1&mode=recap_away&c_id=det At least the Oakland A's defeated the KC Royals to keep the Tigers only 1/2 game back.
http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/gameday/inde...1&mode=preview&vkey=preview_web_home&c_id=det That 19-inning loss still is being felt by the Tigers. Hopefully the friendly confines of Comerica Park will give the Tigers a boost to split this 4-game home and home series.
Just want to thank the Tigers with their generous "defensive" play so far this series against the Bucs. Very charitable.
ya, and that disgusts me. bad pitching, hitting slumps - those things happen to every team at some point. but bad fielding and baserunning are inexcuseable.

I hear ya. ...and I hope you have a backup monitor...or two. If I had a swear box, it would be over flowing.
I missed the game because of illness. I heard Buck did well and the Tigers won 8-4. Castellanos with a couple big fly's too. Much needed to say the least.
Oh, and by the way. 'Nitro' with another gesture to the home town crowd, who dont forget easily. The more he runs his mouth and gestures, the more he's going to see it come right back at him. He's getting under a lot of peoples skin. What do you fellas think?
hope you're feeling better, will. not sure what was the best part of yesterday's game - the fact that the tigers won, or the awesome new name i was able to add to my list of great names - pirates reliever Stolmy Pimentel. u can't make this shit up. i missed nathan's gesture, but i didn't miss him walking the first two guys he faced in the 9th. he needs to keep his gestures to himself.
Stolmy Pimentel? Far out. Ya, Nathan's attitude is wearing thin with a lot of fans and media types. I would think he knows better, but i guess not. I'll see if i can dig up a clip of it.
Joe has just apologized for his gestures claiming his frustration got the best of him. Apparently he did a chin wave to the fans who were getting on him.
