    Cheap Sunglasses

    Just got new Oakley sunglasses today to replace the ones I got in 2007. Those were $120 as I recall. These were roughly the same with a Visa discount I had. http://www.sunglasshut.com/us/700285039152?cid=cse-google-pla-700285039152 They're awesome. Like a glove for my eyes. I'm curious...

    Mikel Leshoure sighting

    http://www.mlive.com/lions/index.ssf/2014/07/detroit_lions_rb_coach_anticip.html#incart_river "I think Mikel has a chance to be a big part of what we do," running backs coach Curtis Modkins said, according to the team. "As a matter of fact, I'm anticipating him being a big part of what we do...

    Josh Turley / Jason Krizan Erie Sea Wolves

    Turley is older than Jake Thompson but they were both promoted to Erie at the same time after both were solid in the first-half of the season. He got hit kinda hard yesterday after a good first outing with the Sea Wolves. With Thompson gone I think he is the heir apparent to be part of the...

    DD not planning on Hanrahan

    http://www.mlive.com/tigers/index.ssf/2014/07/dave_dombrowski_says_it_is_hig.html#incart_river We've all been wondering if or when. "At this point, I would say we're not counting on him at all," Dombrowski said. "It does not sound encouraging. ... There's another medical check being done...

    Cabrera on the road vs. LH

    I was clicking through statistics and noticed that Miguel's name didn't appear for Average against LH pitchers. I was looking for JD Martinez (who is only hitting .230 off LH the last 30 days and .402 against RH which defies the normal split). Miguel has also not always followed the split, last...

    Scott Boras on Eugenio Suarez

    http://www.mlive.com/tigers/index.ssf/2014/07/scott_boras_eugenio_suarez_ste.html#incart_river "Frankly, the young man they brought up is doing a good job," Boras said earlier this wekk at the Hyatt Regency in Minneapolis. "He's a good player." "Sometimes, there's games you lose because...

    Will JD Martinez get enough PAs to qualify

    for a batting title? Mathemagicians and people taking SWAGS welcome to speculate. He has 205 PA's with 91 team games played 3.1 x 91 = 282.1 so he is 76 PA's short. He needs 502(3?) for the season 162 x 3.1 = 502.1 He needs to average 4.2 PA's per game and play all 71 games to qualify by...

    Does Monroe start 2014 as a Piston?

    Yes or No? I say Yes. Bonus Question: What will his contract status be at the start of 2014? 5.5 million qualifying offer with Pistons Max contract with Pistons Max contract elsewhere in sign and trade 12M contract with Pistons 13M contract matched by Pistons 13M+ contract not matched by...

    Home Run Derby

    Since the game already determines home field in WS they should award a compensatory pick in the draft for the first, second and third place finishers. You get the pick in the corresponding round that you finished. Stupid idea right? Yet I think it is still less stupid than home field advantage...

    Trades

    Second half is approaching. Who are the players you would like to see the Tigers go after and who are you willing to part with. Everyone here is smart enough to not post a bag of ball trades for Tulowitzki. Ben Zobrist has a 7.5M team option in 2015. I wish Tampa Bay had stayed in the tank so...

    Erie Sea Wolves

    They are a little scary when you look at their pitching staff http://www.milb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?t=t_ibp&cid=106&stn=true&sid=t106 Bryan Augenstein is the only pitcher with significant time, and hasn't been moved up already, that looks like he is ready for a next step. The rest of the...

    Tigers reportedly 'quite interested' in Benoit

    Mlive LINK 7.75M which seemed like the right price to me for a premiere 8th inning setup guy who has proven himself in the role many times. The BP couldn't handle a subtraction. It needed Chamberlain, Nathan and Benoit to become a strength. What would you give up?

    D Kelly v. E. Carrera

    Dirks is coming back soon and the roster will need another spot. Seems DK is the most logical guy since JD is hitting the ball so well. Before his return would YOU as a fan rather have Carrera or Kelly on the roster? There are no wrong answers though I am sure there will be one person who...

    Ezequiel Carrera

    Ezequiel Carrera Depending on how much longer it will take for Dirks, Carrera is the left-handed bat the lineup and bench needs. JD Martinez has been a pleasant surprise and I'd like to see him go to Toledo and start working on playing 1st.

    Kevin Whelan

    He has been dominant all season at Toledo. Do you see him getting outs in Detroit before September 1st? In hindsight I would have liked to see them promote Whelan instead of Knebel and given Corey the closer role in Toledo to prepare for the Majors. I can't pretend I wasn't excited about his...

    Chamberlain as closer

    Ian Krol

    Ian Krol, LHP, Majors Like Cole, Krol was acquired from the Athletics this past January and has rejuvenated his career in the Nationals system. After suffering through injury issues as a starter, the A's moved the lefty to the bullpen in late 2012. Returning to the 'pen in '13, Krol has...
