5. 3B Nick Castellanos
6. LF Justin Upton
7. CF Cameron Maybin
8. C James McCann
9. SS Jose Iglesias
Definitely staying up late.
Moya sits…Upton returns….Why Brad???
Ausmus auctioned off, the now famous hat and sweatshirt from the tirade. Got $5000 for them for the Police Kids Charity…thanks Brad that was a classy move!
I think its going to take 7 runs or more to win tonight’s game in OAK
I’ll stay up if it doesn’t get unbearable. I think Fulmer will have a strong game and go 6 plus. If we get him some runs early, it will help.
JV’s ERA is now lower than Scherzer’s – 4.02 JV vs 4.05 Max
That a boy Victor. Takes some actual effort to get out of the way …but you always move that slow!
Fuller is dealing tonight!!!!….another 5 runs and this might get “penproof”
Iggy deserves a head slap for that mistake.
The baserunning stupidity of the Tigers is worse than a bunch of Little Leaguers
Fuller…..WOW!!!!..Ridiculous stuff right there!!!
Upton…has no frickin clue on whats a strike and whats a ball…and makes $11 mil….unbelievable!
actually Upton is making $22.125M and will for the next 5 years
Wow, am I happy I stayed up for this gem by Fulmer! Hopefully the pen will get the out they need to close out the 8th.
Billy Butler up with guys on 2nd and 3rd, talk about an unpleasant flashback…it worked out this time though.
Yes, but a lot of those flashbacks included JV pitching who he owned.
excellent start by Fulmer, it would be great to get this type of consistency out of him, Greene and Norris, as that would minimize the dependency on Pelfrey & Sanchez
Not perfect but very good. Looking forward to see how Matt Boyd does tomorrow.
JV..Zim..Fulmer..Norris…Greene sounds good to me!..
