but that’s pretty darn funny stuff there.
Remember those few brief days when Freddy Garcia was a Tiger?

The more I see Peralta at SS, the more I think they'll pick up his option
and since I believe that Inge will be back too, I think that Jhonny is our SS next year.

hopefully both will play for a discount
Rooting for Tiger stripes, not pinstripes
by JerseyTigerFan on Sep 7, 2010 7:47 PM EDT up reply actions
I don't care about discounts, just performance, and both have been inadequate recently
If we have both of these guys, that’s two less positions that DD has to fill the critical 2, 3, and 5 spots in the lineup. Fortunately, most of the talent for those spots are OF/ DH types.
If you survived 2003, you can get through this!

If those guys are back, they'll each get about 7 mil for a year or two
wouldn’t prevent DD from getting a big bat or two, but both take up two positions where he might fit a speedy No. 2 hitter or something. fill the SS and 3B slots, that leaves DH, RF, and Catcher to bat 2nd, 3rd, and 5th. Getting a RF and DH aren’t too hard, but a catcher to bat fifth is a rare dude.
If you survived 2003, you can get through this!

I hope Inge comes back. I know he’s not as good as he could/should be, but I watch baseball with my heart and my head, I guess

yes...
but it’s more for image manipulation. Such as adding objects into the photo (replacing someones face with something funny) or messing with colors on something.
so I could like, take a team photo of the Tigers and put Carl Crawford in there
just to see how he looks before DD spends 100 million bucks on him?

and am looking to start some blogging again, so to get me back in the groove of things does anyone have a pitcher they want me to analyze (MLB wide)?
And really this is brought on by my convo with Tigerdog above. I now have the urge to analyze.
Maybe you could look at

Guy’s gotta be tired. He’s had a long season of carrying the team and even though he’s still coming through with some timely hits, he’s not as relaxed at the plate as he was before the ASG (and before Magglio got hurt). Something’s been off and he may have hurt himself by trying to hard or over-compensating for whatever was hurting.

ever wonder what the very first double play ever was like?
did people say, “can you really do that?” or "whoa. that’s a great idea! why didn’t we think of that?’ How long did it take for someone to figure out you could do it? Did the first one occur spontaneously in the middle of a game one day or was it something that people considered off the field beforehand?
