Re: Rangers VS Tigers
For the record, Porcello only gave up 2, Jason.

I stand corrected. My faux pas.

Re: Rangers VS Tigers
It's OK, the other guys gave up 13.

Re: Rangers VS Tigers
Definitely gave me my most baseball enjoyment since 2006. Tigers have their top four starters locked up for a few years, so I am hoping for more October baseball next year.
Good luck in the Series.

Sure, not all the bats showed up (they still scored 5), but that's precisely why Leyland can't let the game get out of control. Leyland blew it and in the process let a game that could have been close turn into a embarrassment. |

We can agree to disagree, because I think more than managerial mistakes cost the Tigers the game.

Leyland managed a good game, unfortunately Texas was just the better team. Are you going to blame him for the 2 fielding errors that we had as well? or like others said the cold bats?

Re: Rangers VS Tigers
Congrats to the Rangers. Tigers didn't have the clutch hitting or pitching they needed. I know injuries played a role, but not enough to be blamed for losing. Rangers had the better bats and better bullpen. Losing A.A.'s confidence late in the regular season killed the Tiger's pen. He was a rookie, so hopefully he can rebound next year.
I hope the Rangers can beat the Cards. Good luck guys.

Re: Rangers VS Tigers
Didn't you hear, Mike? It was Leyland's fault.

Re: Rangers VS Tigers
I can't blame him for Game 6. Game 5 maybe.
I like 4 of next year's starting rotation: Verlander, Fister, Scherzer, and Porcello. They need: 1. A 5th starter that is better than Penny, lefty preferred. 2. A starting 2nd baseman 3. A starting 3rd basemen 4. At least one decent reliever who can go more than an inning, lefty would be nice 5. A backup catcher who hits above the Mendoza line and has a decent arm Any bats they add would preferrably be from the left side or switch. They are too right dominant both at the plate and on the mound. I figure the outfield will be Boesch, Jackson, and Young. If Rayburn could learn how to field at all his bat is good enough to start him. However, I believe he has the worst stats in history for anyone who has started at 2nd base.
