Man Wallner can play. Could've used him for that extra month, eh? 

For what?

[joefish]

Now the Jeffers pinch hit home run last night feels even better.  A springboard for this big outburst. 

Perfect. So was Garver's plunk. Perfect. No harm. 

Good game.

Good win

Funny how no one cares about Ks or LOB when the at bats are consistently solid. Makes a huge difference.

[RpR]

Ah, a rookies  9th inning first home run gave Detroit the win over Houston

You called it

[Jocko87]

Lewis needs time at the position to set his clock. That throw was rushed when he had time. Plenty of time to set his feet and make a good throw.

Shoulda just run this version of Kepler out there too while they were at it.

I don't think that a statement like that needs anything added to it!

Im going to ask this again.

 

Why is Cole Sands rostered?? He goes 5 days+ without pitching and when he does its blow outs and hes terrible

DFA and get Funderburk up here

Coulda played em both Jocko. I would not have sent down the rookie after reaching 8 times in a row. Why mess with that? If you would've, that's your prerogative.

We could use more like it around here

I'm just guessing, but I'd say it involves service time

Not gonna happen.  He had a great inning and he is in the role he needs to be in tight now.

It's the mustache.

Also it's only one run due to a passed ball, he can do that three more times. Calm down.

Good Start,  for 33+  million a year he needs to a better hitter

Concur.

The game thread would be a better place.

Nothing is, in fact, the additive identity.

Fine to add it all ya want. Danger is when you do it no times....

Is there a better direction?

 

[RpR]

I am surprised Kep hit that one out, he did not seem to be really into facing this gent.

North.

Sands is not going to be DFA'd. He threw a great inning in the role he is supposed to fill. Give him a break

[wabene]

Wallner is a ballplayer. I like the edge he brings to the team
