Getting Granderson back will be like a shot of B-12 to this team.

Finally, Leyland taking the bull by the horns. Shake the team up. Go Tigers.

Sorry I’m late guys, but I was at the game and had to drive home and such.

Oh, and while I thought Verlander threw pretty well, it just seems like he didn’t throw many strikes. Pudge more or less said the same thing in an interview after the game that he thought Verlander pitched “pretty good” but threw too many pitches for 6 innings. Speed was up, but what about control.

While Leyland crosses his fingers and hopes Sheffield can return to some kind of regular DH duty, we will be treated to the interchange of Dr. Strangeglove1 and Dr. Strangeglove2 between first and third.

If, on the other hand (dare I say glove!) Sheffield’s shoulder has gone pfsst, the best arrangement would be: Guillen DH, Cabrera 1B and Inge 3B. But, without a another backup catcher Inge can’t be penciled into the hot corner every game. With the odd bench configuration, Inge has to remain as the Super-Sub.

um yeah, that is like outstanding. I can’t wait for Cruceta to come up and anchor Bautista, Seay, Jones, and Lopez.

I care Mark but we all know pitching in AAA and in the bigs is two different things. Very excited to see him, however. They’ll probably bring him up pretty soon but maybe they’ll want to see him pitch a few more innings in Toledo. Grandy’s coming back. So much to look forward to.

I hear the Giants need a third basemen do they have anything we need?

If anyone cares, Cruceta went 3 innings for Toledo tonight, allowed 0 hits, 1 bb and 6 k’s.

39 pitches, 27 strikes.

Um, yeah.
