Maybe we can get back on track now that we're actually facing a bad team.. But I doubt it. Then we go into New York for 4 games afterwards.. :headsmack:

And I still have no idea how the Cards are doing so well this year. No Waino, Pujols having a bad year (for his standards, still having a good year), and Holliday is on the DL for the 2nd time now

I'm not worried about the Rangers, as much as some people. They are tough yeah, but they were a hot team coming in to Detroit the 1st time around, and that series helped Detroit get on track, imo. To take a hot team like them down, when the team is struggling is tough. I have a lot of confidence in beating them this time around as well.

Well, that was at Comerica Park. Tigers are always really good at home no matter who the opponent is. I'm not saying they can't beat the Rangers because they can, but it will be tough. I think everyone is scared of the Rangers in some way or another, they score a lot of runs. Question will be if Max can get it going tomorrow, he has been struggling lately.

Yeah I know. Different parks, different results, sometimes. Obviously it will be tough. Rangers aren't just a team you can come in and beat up. Rangers ballpark is a hitters park. So, I won't be surprised to see homers hit left and right this series, and both teams have guys who can hit it out. I'm not worried about Scherzer. He's struggled lately, but I expect he'll turn it around soon. Question i'd say is Coke. See how he'll do. I've heard his ankle is fine and it shouldn't be a factor. I feel he'll be passable. Rangers will hit, no question about that. Hopefully Tigers keep up with them.

Mets win the series against the Braves, next up Brewers and then Pirates. Reyes leading the league in triples, 3rd in SB's, 5th in average. Dude needs a nice contract from us, definitely.

Man.. Just think.. Once the Tigers get Carlos Guillen & Magglio Ordonez back --- Once they are firing on all cylinders with good pitching, they are going to be real strong. The more I look at the team, the more I like it & can see why they thought this would be a real strong team this year.

Going to be a hard series coming up against the Rangers here. Hopefully we don't drop the ball.

Dodgers called up their top prospect
SS Dee Gordon
he's the fastest player in baseball :eek:
son of Tom "Flash" Gordon

i think they called him up too soon. I wasnt expecting him until June/July next year, but with Furcal on the DL, they want him up
Jamey Carroll has been great, but i've been dying to see a rangy SS for the longest time. Furcal's range was declining as well

im so excited
