Ouch. It's been a pretty ugly week, utterly dominated by the Dodgers, and now coming home to face the defending champs....these are the times that try mens souls. Here's hoping the home cooking can result in a win or 2 this week.
11 in a row...

Bucs and White Sox up NeXT!
Originally posted by JohnnysGhostOuch,indeed,that record speaks volumes,guess this makes like 14 yrs in a row without sniffing even a .500 record. Take some solace in the fact,that the Braves,run of division titles,is going to end,and a woeful Tiger team has turned it around,so one has to hold out hope:grouchy
sworned that the club under Tracey, would have had a good chance of ending the run of under .500 seasons....God knows what's going thru Tracey's mind
at the moment...As for the Braves, unless they can stop their total melt down, the Bucs might actually FINISH ahead of the Braves..Unless Cox gets
the Braves back on line...I wouldn't feel soory for them..14 straight div flags.
any team would love to have that record..
of course, a few more WS titles --would have been nice !!
As for the Tigers...great to see them almost back..after 12 straight seasons
of stanking badly...some good trades, a few decent drafts, some FA'S, AND
HIRING a old school type skipper like LEYLAND , was what Detroit needed..
heck, you fans in Pittsburgh KNOW how good Leyland was-is-etc...
any regrets not hiring him last winter ?
anyhow, here's to hoping the Pirates end their losing streak against our arch rivals the ChiSox....maybe even sweep 'em....that would be grand !

(I'm a tigers guy)
I don't understand your team; you should be good, sniffing at playoffs.
I'm starting to think that attitude is ~85% of a teams performance (this is a big deal to me; I'm of a management bent, ie, talent rules all).
BTW, reasons tigers got good:
1. rogers
2. layland (can't spell)
3. granderson (do)

Easy
No pitching outside of Zach Duke, but the defense is average so he has a bad ERA thus far
Perez just blew up...Kip Wells is below average
Snell and Maholm are not ready, neither is Gorzelanny
The bullpen is HORRID outside of all people, Roberto Hernandez
Believe me my Phils have the same problem...except we have better hitting talent
BUT
Jack Wilson
Jason Bay
Juan Castillo
Freddy Sanchez is not a bad group of young bats
Believe me in my MLB '06 The Show Franchise, I can't buy a win with these guys....I score 10 runs, they score 12
I score 3 runs they score 4....
