So his hunch worked out 1 out of 3 games. If his 'hunches' work out at a 33% clip the rest of the season the Tigers will get passed by the Twins. Today's game is more about Bondo coming up big than a AAAA dog finding a bone. Is everyone serious that Leyland deserves credit for batting Timo third? So his hunch worked out 1 out of 3 games.

I guess we need to find a shortstop in the off season. Hmmmm..... I really like Guillen at 1st base, he looks like such a natural. I guess we need to find a shortstop in the off season. Hmmmm…..

If you think about it, he has been one of the building blocks of what this team is today. You know, when all is said and done, I can never really get down on Inge.

An interest-free loan to Mr. Ilitch. it kills me!! But of course I have to pull the trigger because if they do it, who wants to be out in the cold? If it's the price I have to pay for a team that (hopefully) is consistently still in contention by September 1, I guess it beats the alternative!!

Not just because of this year, but because of the type of person he is and a player. I have never bought a sports jersey, but if I ever did, it would be an Ordonez jersey.

Too much Kool-Aid. These wins feel so good (now if Cleveland loses, we'll only be 3.5 back and if we win tomorrow....) because they are so infrequent now. I know, because I am having some Kool-Aid now and it tastes gooooooood. Cib,
