i hate watching yankees games. all i'm gonna here is how great jeter is, and i'll probably see that play where he made that relay throw against oakland, then we'll hear more about how the new york fans should quit booing a-rod. we'll then hear about how mighty the lineup is and more about how great jeter is since matsui and sheffield were injured, ignoring the fact that they had giambi and a-rod among others on the team. also gonna here about how mussina and randy johnson have owned detroit in their careers, not considering the 06 tigers are not the same tigers of before, then if they have time to talk about the tigers, they'll be sure to mention the tigers are a free swinging team who don't walk a lot. hopefully they pronounce their names correctly. oh an stuart scott, it's CRAIG monroe, not chris monroe

didn't read the thread but watch out for the tigers

i wouldnt give em to much praise, they are playing the royals for gods sakes.

i was saying watch out for the tigers before the season started. they have a nice offense, that's deep from top to bottom. craig monroe had 20 home runs and 89 rbi's and is 8th in the lineup. the pitching staff isn't that bad either. if bonderman can pitch like he did in the first half of last season, he is a potential 20 game winner, and kenny rogers is a solid veteran pitcher, along with nate robertson and mike maroth, the tigers have potential at starting pitching.

LMAO at Icetee getting excited about the Tigs. I mean ok 4-0 and Chris"Who the fuc am I" Shelton has hit some bombs.
I would stick with watching him hit homeruns then hoping they go any where anytime soon.

Mike"I cant pitch because I rub bengay on my pits" Maroth

Jermey "Hey I had one good year, so I am the next ace, just kidding" Bonderman

Nate "Yes, yes I do look like buddy Holley with these glasses on" Robinson

Stick to your Pistons, least they will go places.

Just messing with you, but your in same division as the Indians, so good luck. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

don't bother posting when you know nothing. jeremy bonderman is only 23 and still developing. i have been saying the tigers were a team to watch well before the season started. chris shelton is only 25 and started breaking into the league last year and has potential, although he is not gonna keep on this homerun pace. the tigers will come back down to earth in terms of home runs. they are built for commerica park. curtis granderson can be a solid leadoff hitter, along with polanco at the top. then pudge, ordonez, young, shelton, monroe etc. the tigers will win about 85 games this year

figured i'd go back to the begining of april and just bring back some of my brilliance, and expose bigbang's ignorance again. little off on my prediction but still close. notice i predicted they would do well and could have a good pitching staff

[snb778 5,000+ posts]

wtf just happened... I change the channel for 3 minutes and its 0-5

tigers had chances to win. robertson needs to field that ball. cannot give the yankees more outs. idk why leyland didn't pull robertson in the 5th against jeter. jeter was 3-3 against robertson and you have some good righties in the pen. also idk why he let walker pitch to jeter when you got fernando rodney in the pen. they played hard, but are clearly overmatched in this series.

2nd and 3rd innings they had chances

Detroit screwed themselves up

I hate the Yankees so much....you have no idea!
