He needs to come out of the pen to something by Megadeth...
but what, though?

Does he like Megadeth or are you guys just making shit up?

Claw Megadeth just sounds like a badass name

They don't usually call errors on that right
because you can’t assume the DP? At least that’s why you don’t get an RBI on double plays

cheap hit

i haven't read through the other threads on this..
but I just read the MLB.com article on mora clearing the air with Trembley.. with Mora’s strange analogies and figures of speech. Then I started thinking about Trembley’s odd analogies and figures of speech.
Must have been a hell of an interestin conversation. Kind of like when the crawfish is out of the barn, ya know? Reminds me of the story of a guy I know from back in my days in double A. He’d always swing first and leave the talkin for the … growing fields are pretty nice, y’know?
haha CB Buckner is soooo bad
If that’s a called strike you’re just blinds. If you’re calling it on the swing: a) you made the wrong signal, and b) you should really ask for help on that kind of shit.

Answering my own question
He threw 113 all of last year, plus the Olympics
He’s thrown 115 so far this year, including tonight.

I don't know that this bothers me too much...
…if before the season, we knew that Arrieta was going to dominate AA but merely hold his own in AAA, would we have been that disappointed?
Uh, Gary, there aren't many 92 MPH breaking balls...

Striking out the side in a tie game
is pretty darn Birdland.
Do the Tigers employ any relievers who throw less than 98 MPH?

you think the Tigers put us out of our misery in the 9th or drag it out a bit?

Going up 5-0 and then playing baseball like a minor league team. We were being abused by a pitcher well over 100 pitches.
by John Stephens on Aug 3, 2009 9:38 PM EDT up reply actions
Meh
I know that some people hate it when you tip your cap to the other pitcher, but Justin Verlander is fucking good. Would you have felt better if they’d spread out the five runs? Because 5 runs off of Verlander is pretty good.
I will lead these Peoples to the promised land, also known as "Slightly Ahead of the Blue Jays." ~WietersRunDry
Probably
The fact that they did shit after that 5 run first and then tried to just ride it out really pissed me off
by John Stephens on Aug 3, 2009 9:41 PM EDT up reply actions
Do you really think they tried to ride it out?
They were just like, “We got five, now we can stop trying!”

I guess
They LOOKED bad on a lot of Ks, but that’s what Verlander does to teams. He’s struck out at least 8 in 13 starts this year (14 if you count tonight).

were worse, personally. Especially yesterday.

I don't.
Boston is better than Detroit. And we never lead by 5 in any of the Boston games. Nor did we lose on any walk-offs

Detroit is a first place team, and it’s impossible to lose on a walk-off at home.

He’s a fucking rookie pitcher who gave up 5 runs to a good team.

Tillman is learning on the job
I’d rather watch him pitch this game again then have to see Rich Hill ever again.
I will lead these Peoples to the promised land, also known as "Slightly Ahead of the Blue Jays." ~WietersRunDry
I mean, I get that it's frustrating
I hope you don’t think we’re ganging up on you. To me it just looks like we’re seeing growing pains of a team that’s capable of winning but can’t put it together yet. That’s much easier for me to watch that what was going on prior.
I will lead these Peoples to the promised land, also known as "Slightly Ahead of the Blue Jays." ~WietersRunDry
I don't
But to me its the worst loss of the second half. I just HATE the feeling of having a lead that you know is not going to last and then it doesn’t. Also, I’d rather be blown out than lose in the last second. So when I got both in the same game, I’m not going to be happy.

Kind of surprising to see the ball sail over the wall and feel absolutely nothing. Oh well, I guess it’s better than the alternative.
12 years of this’ll do that. I’m usually just numb by the all-star break.
I wonder if I can bill Jeff Lurie and Peter Angelos for the years of therapy their teams are going to put me through.
