Completely forgot bout the Tigers game today haha. Glad to see we managed to win though. Jackson made another incredible catch, gosh damn.

Tigers offense showed up, that's good to see, especially when you have Penny pitching.

And those videos have what to do with Bard's stuff?

I'll let it go though. You probably had a rough night as it is with the best pitcher in the MLB giving up five homers and losing. He's got dynamite stuff though...

Damn, Adam Lind hit a grand slam on Jered Weaver! lol. Sucks for my fantasy team.

Brett Lawrie is that dude.

nah he sucks lol

CC has been slipping, Weaver had a horrible game.
Verlander's Cy Young to lose really.

Thank god for the sign stealer!!

Tim McCarver just said cotton candy tastes like pine tar.

That would explain a lot

Hopefully Verlander can keep it going, I think he'll have another off game or two, but I hope not. Would love to see him get the Cy Young.

 

[RipCity32]

I don't see him not winning it, if a bad game is considered 4 runs against most of the time lol.

Curtis Granderson is a monster. Dude's jacking out homers every game

Yeah, we got screwed in that deal.

 

[RipCity32]

Meh, I'm one of the few Tigers fans who seemingly haven't given up on Jackson.
I think in the long run it will be an even deal.

 

[elcheato]

I wouldn't go that far.. Granderson is putting up huge power numbers, but the Tigers ballpark is much bigger and harder to hit homers. Plus, Curtis Granderson isn't a good defensive player, while Austin Jackson is an elite defensive player.. Helps a ton when playing in Comerica.

But honestly, the Dbacks smoked that deal. Ended up with Ian Kennedy and Edwin Jackson, and then traded Jackson for Daniel Hudson.

Austin won't ever be much of an offensive player, but his defense is a huge weapon. Him robbing people of RBIs, is basically the same as him driving in runs on offense, just isn't recorded on the scorecard.
