We're screwed up. But if we hit like we're capable of hitting, and we pitch like we're capable of pitching, and we make plays like we're capable of playing and [I] manage good, we'll be just fine.

Jim Leyland, sounding like he's not sure what to make of all this, either.

Is there a guy who morphed into a DH more quickly than Cabrera?

Geez, it seems like he went from a corner infielder to an overweight slug in about five minutes. I know the guy can mash, but that's a whole lot of years and money Detroit gave a guy already with agility and body issues.

Sports Illustrated's Tom Verducci, answering a question about the Tigers' lineup.

"His shoulder.

"There's something wrong with his shoulder. I know because I've been there with that bursitis I had. You can see it in the way he's throwing. He's over-compensating for not being able to extend his arm."

Jack Morris, on what he thinks is wrong with Justin Verlander.

Series Preview: Detroit Tigers

Hey Tiger fans, Jesse here from Twinkie Town. I've started doing series previews for each team the Twins are bumping up against, and this is the Tiger version fresh this morning. Just a general overview, I highlight a couple opposition players and throw up some stats...pretty basic. Feel free to take a look.

"The one thing I have against some Tiger fans... is that they should be pulling for your team, no matter what. And I didn't feel that was always there. But I definitely enjoyed playing for the Tigers.

"The thing that stung me hardest is that maybe I was the lightning rod for that, a little bit, on this team."

Jason Grilli, responding to his critics
