Game 2013.5: Yankees at Tigers

Now that was a Hope Opener. Like most of you, I surmise, I came into baseball consciousness well before the internet, streaming scores and instant updates. Growing up in Arlington, the only way I could get Tigers scores was to maybe catch a glimpse on the evening news (if I was allowed to stay up [...]

Being a fan is tough. In baseball, even in the best years, it means you’re going to have at least 70 lousy baseball days, and a few dozen of those will rip your sports heart out. I just want you to know, that however frustrated/angry/disappointed/amused you feel regarding yesterday’s bullpen (lack of) effort. I feel [...]

Spring Springs Hope

Ahh, Opening Day. Every team is in first place. Every fan has hopes for the post season. If at least for one day. I remember the start of the ’07 season. Coming off a 2006 WS appearance (which looked inevitable mid-season, impossible in September, and then undeniable in October), I hoped the addition of Gary [...]

Rick Porcello Trade Talks

04.03.2013 53 comments

According to ESPN (my Scorecenter App alert, to be precise) – the Rangers have inquired about Rick Porcello. This makes sense to me for a number of reasons. 1) The Rangers just lost Martin Perez for several months with a fractured forearm. Perez was slated to be their #5. This is a team who has [...]

Don’t Ask Dotel (about Miguel Cabrera)

22.02.2013 26 comments

Is there trouble brewing in the clubhouse? Or is there nothing else to talk about? The fallout from the Yahoo article I posted on Wednesday has been at least measurable, if not significant. Of course, Dotel clumsily backtracked yesterday (think Delmon Young in LF) and apologized to Miggy, So what do you guys think? I think [...]

Here’s a video card! (from MLive) Not a whole lot going on, other then games of pepper and intrasquad scrimmages, so here are a few links to keep you going until Rondon gets drilled and TSE demands that we resign Valverde for a logical 1 year salary which is not irrationally based on his positive [...]

Hello Friends – This PED stuff is really interesting to me. My reaction to the latest reports on Biogenesis was a far cry from the disappointment that I had to similar reports in the (way) past. At this point in time, I’m surprised there weren’t more people on the list. Or any Tigers for that [...]

Hello Friends – I hope that everyone had a happy and healthy holiday season. I’ve got a few stories of interest that I plan to post below, but first, I’d like to ask if anyone out there would like to help with the game posts this year. We could use one, maybe two more. Assuming [...]

Hot Stove Talk – December Edition

Hello DTW Friends – Considering the hottest story of the past week has been regarding Tom Brookens resurrecting his career at coaching 3B, I think it’s safe to say that we are in a quiet period. Which is the opposite of how Tom Brookens is handling the promotion(?). That said, I thought I’d put up a [...]

Open thread for the Winter Meeting activities…don’t have much time this morning, but I’m sure our community will keep us up to date…check back often. – Apparently Asdrubal Cabrera has a block on the Tigers, along with the Yankees, Red Sox, Nationals, Giants and Mets. Interesting company. – I don’t think the Indians want Peralta, [...]

Hot Stove Talk Part Tres

(see what I did there? Tres? You can call me the blog post title Expert, if you’d like) It’s been a while, so let’s get caught up on Free Agent news around the club. There hasn’t been much movement around Detroit, but some interesting things nonetheless. I am fascinated by the Josh Hamilton situation. Living in [...]
