Game 2:Justin Verlander vs Shaun Marcum 7:07pm

Game 3: Jeremy Bonderman vs Brandon Morrow 1:07pm

Game 4: Rick Porcello vs Marc Rzepczynski 1:07pm

Did anyone else realize how good Scherzer's been since he got a 2 week lay-off in May?

ERA around 2.30, a whip close to 1.15, and a 9.5 k9 through 3 months and over 100ip. I totally missed this resurgence 'cause he was all over the place to start the year. If Bonderman and Porcello weren't such large negatives as starters (Brian Talletesque numbers as starters) DET should be right in the thick of the AL Central.

Looks like the Yankees was the last full series most will see on TV

I believe all the remaining series have at least one game on Sportsnet One.

Considering that a lot of people won't be able to watch these games, can I post a link to watch them Ozzy?

If not, I can just email people the links.

Detroit is atrocious on the road. Hopefully we take 3 of 4!

It's nice to see Snider get the night off. He's been way overworked this year. Thanks for keeping him fresh Cito.

This dude is bi-polar.... He says one thing and does another thing

I can't wait to see Cito go. Snider should be playing everyday! Lewis should be on the bench as the utility guy.. Our future is sharing PT with a career scrub! Only Cito can do **** like that!

Escobar
Overbay
Bautista
Wells
Lind
Snider
Hill
Buck
Encarnacion

should be our daily lineup.

hahaa you still have Wells in the 4 spot??
toss Snider there for fun (since we don't have a great option out there). last-year's Lind should be our 4.

I'd rather have Bautista be the clean-up man, but that ain't happening with Hill and Lind struggling like they have been. Wells is no no.4 but who else can take his spot? Snider in the 4th? Cito would probably get a boob job before he decides to bat Snider outside of leadoff or the 9th spot. I can't believe the guy would rather play Lewis than Snider! F Cito!

Cito said that his disappointed that he hasn't been able to get wise in the lineup

Seriously though, what's even the point of having Snider up here if we're not going to play him everyday? Might as well send him down to get consisten AB's.

I don't usually post often, just read. But Cito's mistreatment of Snider has me fuming! I was looking forward to seeing Snider play tonight only to see "Hussle's Cool" Lewis in the leadoff again. I wonder why AA doesn't straighten Cito out?

What a difference in attendance compared to the last couple of series.

EE should have slid directly at the bag and not around it

Wise has speed.
get him to run the balls out to the ump when his ballbag empties.

and i seriously think you made that quote up.
