Well, I’m back up and online. However, I’m still out of the loop on the Tigers. Thursday night when I was sitting in the dark, I tuned in 1270 but they were off the air. Last night, I didn’t have the TV on trying to conserve electricity. And, my fantasy football draft is tomorrow which has cut into my Tiger time. So while I’m back, I’ve got nothing to say…Except…”Despite the fact the Tigers were on the west coast, they still remained a part of the Detroit community and voluntarily went powerless last night” I know, it was weak.

Stuff:
-Munson broke his thumb and is on the DL. Danny Klassen has taken his place on the roster. Eric showed quite a bit this season, and has to be considered one of the “brighter” spots this season. While his batting average is low, he still can draw a walk and hit for power. His first year at third was definitely a learning experience that wasn’t always smooth. However, he didn’t embarass himself either.
-Matt Roney has been removed from the starting rotation. Roney had two good starts, and a bunch of really bad ones. He struggled with his control on a regular basis (15 walks against 9 K’s in his last 6 starts). Three of his last 4 starts were only 2 innings. To the best of my knowledge a replacement hasn’t been named, but an AP story in the Detroit News speculates it will be Shane Loux or Steve Sparks.
