Game 118 Overflow Thread
This game has a familiar feel to it. Rick Porcello took a good start into the sixth, before tiring out. And thanks largely to Felix Hernandez, the Tigers weren't able to give Kid Rick much run support.
The Mariners have broken through against Bobby Seay, scoring two in the top of the eighth. Detroit is down 3-1, heading to their half of the inning.

Re: topic from other thread
I can understand your dislike for this move. I know I’m not exactly feeling great having that guy on the Wings.
I didn’t like him even before the Moore incident. He’s not a good player anymore, he really isn’t. If they wanted a third- or fourth-liner for depth purposes, they could have found someone less douchebaggy. Depressing.

Ah
I had to refresh the page to see all the comments. I was afraid I was the only one to make the jump.

Avila is really trying to prove he is a Big Boi......
Not so sure I thought he would sustain his torrent pace.

Grandy can go sit next to Marcus and talk about pop-ups. That was lame.

They must be studying the Gary Sheffield book of hitting while playing for the Detroit Tigers.

I think Ramon will be moving with Polly at bat

maybe not
Lots of guys look fantastic at first and then struggle. He’s a very solid catcher – and at least he will be an excellent backup to split time.

Agreed
Wait a few more weeks for the scouting reports to circulate and then we’ll have a better idea.

remember?
Raburn, Clevlen, Miner……….all guys who looked like the second coming when they first came up
Huff was just introduced to Comerica Park

That was incredible.

HAHAHA
that was awesome. Raburn is off the shit list
Maybe now you'll never slime a guy with a positron collider!
Heh, who knew that flyout for Huff would help give us a run
Of course, Miggy would’nt have been running if Raburn was still at 2nd. But still.
i Like what I see!
not a thought I thought I’d have looking at the quick update at the top of the overflow thread :)

One of my favorites, but I wish he’d slump for a couple days.

Damn Rodney...
Do we have to do this every time
Maybe now you'll never slime a guy with a positron collider!
yes we do
Rodney is a drama queen.

I swear Todd Jones and Rodney used to watch "This is Spinal Tap" after every game
They just love to turn the tension right up to 11.
I'm crossing my fingers
and about to break them off

"somewhat stressful" inning, Rod?
No kidding.

How I stopped worrying and learned to love Fernando Rodney!
Dude does it every time. And I wasn’t here for the one he blew. I’m just gonna stop stressing about him until he screws up, it’s much easier on the blood pressure….
