I guess I was thinking more of the brunt of that 20 million...Hafner.



Oh it's water over the dam.

Who cares now?

I shouldn't have injected it into this mess.



But they are starting to resemble Major League I

[horseofcourse]

ON the bright side the trend now is to not hit. The Giants are world champs and they can't hit crap...never could...never will. They're starting to pull away again. The Tiggers have the best pitcher in the AL in Verlander, but I was looking at them the other day, and they have no other starters with an ERA under 4. The Indians have 3 of them. They don't pitch nearly as well as the Indians for the most part, though they do pretty much have that automatic win every 5th day which is nice. They have a couple good relievers....Albuquerque and Valverde but not nearly as many good ones as the Tribe (despite the melt down last night!). I hate to say it, but the key to the rest of the year is Exhausto. If he were just pitching like last year, we'd still be 5-6 games up. If he can somehow figure it out we contend all year, if he continues his 20 loss pace, good night Irene.

Hey that's a great point,was thinking about it myself.If the relievers just stay the same and the starters get just an itty bitty ( TM ) better........





Oh fucl< it.

They'll still suck.

We're back in first place. Tigger pitching gave up 16 today after only giving up 14 yesterday. Verlander goes tomorrow so we will only be in first place for another half day, but June 30th still there!!

Thank our luckies for the AL Central.

Wow, JJ Hickson got traded to Jimmer Fredette's team for an Israeli bench player. That is so exciting and also a 1st round pick only if Sacto isn't in the lottery which would seem to be impossible. Luckily they won't be playing in 2011/2012 so we won't have to witness some craziness going on there.

And just as I thought, Verlander made our return to first very short. He's not pitching tonight though!
