    Fielder for Kinsler trade

    Jon Heyman is reporting this rumor. Would love to see it happen. Solve our lead off hitter problem, can steal bases, and hits for power. Also allows us to let Infante go and frees up some other cash to upgrade. Kinsler makes 13M a year on his current contract so that would free up around 10m...

    The current Yankee lineup

    Talk about blast from the past or a case of this ball park being a perfect fit for all these castoffs. Here are 5 of the 7 top hitters currently in the Yankees order: Hafner, Boesch, Youkilis, Vernon Wells, and Lyle Overbay. I could care less about Boesch doing well I just think it's funny...

    Avila flying under the radar

    I've hardly heard his name this spring with all the outfield hoopla and 5th starter debates. He's quietly putting together a nice spring hitting just over .300 and bloated .422 OBP. The slugging is down a little bit giving him a still solid .830 OPS. Either way this is a good sign with...

    Inge signs with the Pirates

    Minor league deal only but this seems fitting. Another blue collar town just like Detroit. Could never see him playing for a glitzy team. Good luck on making the roster Inge!

    Verlander Sighting

    Can't wait for spring training in the meantime we get to hear stories like this until there's some game action. I used to be "professional" caddy in the winter at high end golf clubs in Florida and other uppity locations (Martha's Vineyard). Well my caddy buddies still hit me up now and again...

    Miggy inching closer to batting crown

    As of right now Trout is 0-2 early in this game dropping his ba to .335. Miggy finished today 3-4 and raised his ba to .329. Closest he's been to him. Expect a September run like last year when he came outta nowhere to snatch it from Adrian Gonzales. The long season plus intense pressure will...

    Keith Law's (ESPN) top 5 MVP ballot

    1. Trout 2. Cano 3. Verlander 4. A. Jackson 5. Felix Hernandez Wow! Miggy isn't even 2nd best on his own team. WTF!?!?

    Miggy quietly chasing the Triple Crown

    After last night's game it's looking like Cabrera has a legitimate chance at the Triple Crown this year. Two months ago it looked impossible due to the huge home run deficit to guys like Hamilton and Bautista. Well one guy is injured and the other is terrible now. Adam Dunn leads the league...

    69 year-old Tigers article found in wall

    Some of the old timers might get a kick outta this so I posted some photos of the article on a Tiger's 3-2 loss to the Indians. My cousin and I found this old newspaper behind a wall he was demo'ing in his old house. It's from April 25, 1943 and apparently Tiger's rookie Dick Wakefield was on...

    Inge more 3 run hr's than the Tigers

    Im not sure about this but I think Inge has more 3 run bombs with Oakland that our entire team on the season. Anybody know how to look this up?

    Konerko-Dunn vs Cabrera-Fielder

    The Whitesox are packing a potent punch in the middle of their order and I thought it would be fun to compare their 3-4 hitters with ours and see where they stand at this point in the season. Konerko-Dunn: .317/.429/.626/1.055, 27 home runs, 70 RBI Cabrera-Fielder: .310/.370/.490/.860, 16...

    Inge hits a monster home run

    3 run shot to take the lead against Tampa.. You should've seen how he just flicked it out

    Inge signs with Oakland A's

    Apparently he's gonna start too. This should be a disaster for Oakland

    Fielder

    I'm not complaining by any means because his numbers are damn good overall. I was just wondering what happened to all those violent swings that resulted in 500 ft home runs I've been watching regularly on Sportscenter highlights for the last 5 years. I haven't seen him take one violent hack...

    Holy Brad Eldred!

    Wow is this guy ever putting up some eye popping numbers in Toledo. He's on a Chris Shelton like run. Might be worth riding him out for a month till he cools off. 12 home runs and 34 RBI in 19 games. 3 homers in last night's game after being named International League player of the week...

    Strieby to DH?

    If this kid tears it up all spring and shows the potential he did in 08' before the wrist injury when he led A ball in home runs, what are his chances of landing the full time DH role? I only mentioned it because Leyland made a little comment about it so it got me to thinking. He's built like...

    Brandon Inge is not Brandon Inge

    I don't know how many people know this but I certainly didn't. His name is actually Charles Inge. My friend works at Fifth Third bank in Novi and he came in to deposit a check last Friday. She didn't know who he was and took some flak from her managers for ID'ing him. Apparently his check...
