Gameday Thread: Tigers (47-47) @ O's (45-48)

Detroit @ Baltimore
7:05 :: MASN :: 90° SE 5 MPH :: Rain: 10%
Today's Starting Pitchers GS IP ERA WHIP BAA HR BB K W-L Kenny Rogers - LH - #37 19 114.2 4.55 1.52 .293 11 45 44 6-6 Garrett Olson - LH - #18 14 73.1 5.65 1.57 .287 9 30 47 6-4
Kenny Rogers is 43 years old. Garrett Olson is 24. When Rogers was sneaking beers and partying down with JuCo co-eds, Olson was eating smushed peas. When Rogers was getting bombed in the '96 playoffs, Olson was...I dunno, probably watching that on TV.
One man is old.
The other man is young.
In one locker, there is Rogaine.
In the other, a PSP.
Who figured there would be a 1.5 game difference between the Tigers and Orioles on July 17?

One man has balls
the other, not so much.
There should be a pool on when Olson’s meltdown du jour happens.

Maybe Garrett could learn how to throw a greaseball.
That might help him the same way it’s helped Kenny over the years.

Not me, fo sure. Plus we have a better farm system. They do have that Miguel Cabrera fella, though.

Sadly, Fahey is our best option right now.
Cintron will be back in a week or so, I think.

There was a way to exchange a player or perhaps money for another shortstop.

It's

Which is just fine if you like alternative rock music, but, it’s not really good to come up to.
Markakis, I think, comes up to country music.

This is not good. I feel Loewen coming on, say, in the third.

Unless he had some miraculous recovery from his elbow being made of glass over the last 3 days.

Dennis Sarfate has a special place in my heart now.
Hes a Wrestling fan. Yes.
