I feel by having to use Verlander today, and they had to, the Tigs chance of doing playoff damage is nearly nil. I'd just be happy to win a game and at least force a playoff game. That's how I'd define success for this season. Grab a share of the division and some dignity so the last three days isn't what everyone remembers this team for. My expectations are different today.

Public record and all? I don't know...big guy doesn't seem like the fighting type, but maybe that's just me..(which isn't to say he's not the falling flat on his face type) One thing is for certain though: Leyland's "I didn't notice it" is a bunch of horse*#!%!...

I'd prefer to not throw things around though. Something is amiss and I'd be content to leave it at that. I think a lot of people will hear a lot of things about Cabrera and his face.

Innocent until proven guilty though. Can everybody wake up and commiserate? I need some DTW therapy.

If all our guys step up today I think we can still pull out a spectacular victory and with a little more luck, who knows, maybe Minnesota will choke in their final game at the Metrodome - would love to see that metrobubble finally burst today!

What a choke!!! I have seen girls softball teams hit better and play with more emotion. They seem to sit there and think about the post game buffet (hopefully tacos again) This is one of the most shameful efforts I have seen in 40 yrs of watching baseball. Granderson should be sent to winter ball and taught how to bunt and put the ball in play. Inge should be in a batting cage all winter being pitched nothing but curveballs!. The only players worth a damn are Polonco(and he`ll be gone) and Verlander. Too bad he can`t pitch 3 out of 5 days. At least we would have a chance. I feel like I have played 161 games, the way you beg these guys to play. Absolutely discrasefull. GO TWINS!!!!!!! What a joke!!! What a choke!!!

Did the announcers explain what happened? Was there a fight? Did he get hit during batting practice? So Cabrera clearly had marks on the left side of his face and head last night.
