The Tigers are looking for starting pitching, and that search has led them to a native Michiganite. Detroit has expressed interest in Derek Lowe according to Jon Paul Morosi of FOX Sports, though the two sides have not yet had any serious talks.

OH GOD PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE

I will drive Derek to Detroit MYSELF.

[Sharp]

What is going on?

 

[Doytch]

im going out to get drunk. i suggest you do the same eznark.

 

[Enron]

a guy dressed in a wedding dress just jumped onto the field at the nationals/braves game and got WTFCLOCKED by a security guard. Can't wait for that to hit youtube.

 

[ConradCervantes]

Two excellent defensive plays in one inning? Have I fallen into some wormhole of an alternate reality?

 

[jakncoke]

Ugh, they just flashed the NL Central standings.

Pittsburgh?

PITTSBURGH??

We're currently fucking this game up.

 

[ConradCervantes]

We're currently fucking this game up.

Honestly, I'll take you guys over Cincinnati or St Louis. I'll be more than proud of Pittsburgh to finish second to us in the NL Central.

 

[eznark]

Braun is going to get tossed before this night is over.

 

[Sharp]

Cool, Braves ace reliever Scotty Proctor is on the mound.

[ClovingWestbrook]

Anybody here read Money Ball? I just read the sample on my Kindle and really enjoyed it. Wanted to ask some of you folks how the rest of the book is.

He's our white flag or towel, take your pick.

At least Ankiel gave Procter some relief.

Why would I wanna read a book about a computer, that gives computer numbers?

It's good. Ignore eznark, he's just jealous he didn't get picked to play Beane in the movie.

David Wright went 0-for-3 with a run scored and a stolen base in his second rehab game for Single-A St. Lucie tonight.

Wright played seven innings at third base and handled both of his fielding chances cleanly.

Earlier today, Mets Manager Terry Collins told reporters he expects Wright to only rehab in Florida and rejoin the team next Friday in Miami.

sweet.

 

[eznark]

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm


Taylor Green not in tonight's lineup for Nashville. Very, very interesting.

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

sweet.

Oh yea, first game in Brooklyn to see Wright would be awesome!

 

[Sanjuro]

Hopefully they give him the Ebbet's Field address. At the worst he can just go to KFC to finish rehab.

 

[rc213]

Damn NOffense.


Who's gonna fleece the Dodgers for Kuroda?

Thanks for the link. Joe Morgan sounds like an old school worker who hates people who type on the computer instead of the typewriter.

 

[darkside31337]

Glad to see that the Wright and Reyes are almost back. Can't wait to see them back in a Mets uniform.

Spoiler

Hopefully increases their trade value a tad bit

[eznark]

Casey McGehee needs to get hit by a bus large enough to destroy his fat, lazy ass.

 

[eznark]

Braun has been removed. Life goes on. I cut my wrists.

Playoff run, BELIEVE!

 

[Joey Fox]

What's with the Brewers complaints when you're down by three or less? Must have been awful.

 

[eznark]

LOL ROCKIES!!!!!!!!!

Todd Helton, play of the fucking year.

 

[eznark]

MINOR LEAGUE UMP IS THE KING OF AWESOME!

 

[ConradCervantes]

Dat T-Plush swag. And lol at the play at the plate. Bush league umps.

 

[ConradCervantes]

This team can make three runs seem like thirty at times.

NOT THAT IT MATTERS NOW HAHAHA!!

 

[Joey Fox]

The Rockies have the worst jerseys I've ever seen.

Dorky ass t-shirts under a vest.

 

[eznark]

I think Bush League Ump might get murdered.

 

[Square Triangle]

Fuck you Tigers. I refuse to be a Tiger's fan if Leyland and Dowbrowski and Inge are back next season.

 

[dmag1223]

Last time the reds won 2 games in a row, June 14-15 against the dodgers. Think about that. over a fucking month since the reds have won back to back games.

Arroyo is useless. 26 Hrs given up? Really? Baker is the worst manager in baseball bar none. He sat .381 hitting Zach Cozart, and .315 hitting Ramon Hernandez on the bench for a Saturday night game against your division rivals. Awful, Awful, manager.

 

[eznark]

wow

 

[eznark]

KRod time.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

I know the Braves lost, but the Nationals should feel totally ashamed of themselves that they let Scott Proctor pitch a scoreless inning against them.

Two, actually, there was the one last night as well. Not that I remember or acknowledge last night or anything.

 

[ConradCervantes]

Weeks, baby!

 

[Dragon]

Joe Torre ruined Scott Proctor.

Why is he still a major league reliever? Isn't Rich Garces available?

Edit: Jacoby Ellsbury is doing PEDs, there's no way he should be on pace for 20 homers. Where the hell is this power coming from?

 

[clemenx]

Hahahaha holy shit. I can't believe this is a real quote, thank god I clicked that link.

God bless Joe Morgan

 

[darkside31337]

Man I was laughing so hard earlier tonight when Nick Punto totally shot put airmailed that throw over Albert Pujols head by a mile.

Turns out he's going on the DL with an elbow injury and is more than likely done for the season with surgery on that elbow.

I feel like a semi-jerk now.

 

[eznark]

Lazy King Felix.

hahahhaa

Lannan has been okay in his last two starts while Livo has been horrible. He was fine against the Rockies until he got hit in the face. Who do you think will be in the rotation once Zimmerman reaches his limit? I'm guessing it'll be a combination of Wang/Detwiler.

I don't think Detwiler is returning to the rotation. He's simply not good enough, and Davey seems to like him as his long man out of the pen. Not that I particularly think he's good enough to do that, either, but at least he's better than Burnett. I'm hopeful about Wang, but despite his nice results in the minors thus far his outings have been a little troubling, plus Wang was never really an amazing pitcher anyway. I'm hoping that we'll see a little of Tom Milone and Brad Peacock come September when Zimm reaches his inning limit, and then according to Rizzo and Johnson we should get a start or two from Strasburg to finish off the year.
