For all of you that are saddened by Detroit's start to the season.

[Sweetwater Red]

We'll be just fine after getting this guy back. He makes Torii
Hunter look like a AA prospect. Him being out is killing the Tigers.
Watching Brandon Inge or Clete Thomas run around like
a Keystone cop in center field is unbearable.

I agree Red, Curtis G. will make a big difference at the top of the lineup. But he doesn't pitch and thats what killing them right now.

someone dropped Granderson in my fantasy league last week...I've now got him stashed away on my bench waiting on him to return and unleash his fury!


Oh, and Sweetwater Red, "I wouldn't bet on it." :D ;)

Good pick up. I have him in both my leagues. I just picked up
Justin Verlander in IHS' league. I couldn't believe they gave up on
him already.:eek:

the Rangers series came at a perfect time huh?

[eagles_victory]

Makes Torrii Hunter look like a double A player your joking right? Thats a bold statement about a guy who has struck out 366 times in 1399 at bats. Thats a strikeout in like 1 out of every 3.8 at bats. Yea he has some good numbers and is solid but thats just a huge homer statement.

I think it's Nolan that Ron should be worried about.

What is Nolan's title or is he an advisor to Hicks like Al Kaline is
to Dombrowski (Tigers GM)?

That's something I should've known.

They used to show Ranger games all the time on FSSW. Now
you've got a better chance of seeing the Astros here in
Sweetwater. I haven't been able to keep up with the Rangers
as much.

Freakin' Boderman isn't even going to make it out of the 5th.:mad:

Ordonez hits a 3 run shot. 5-2:D

I was wondering the same thing. I did see a few times that
routine ground balls ate him up. Maybe that's it.:thinking:

[crzyjournalist03]

hmm...I just heard the announcement that he and Guillen were switching positions, and I couldn't help but wonder.
