[Article 15]

Hard to win a NL triple crown with Howard around.

True but if anybody is going to do it in the NL it's Poo Holes.

Miguel Cabrera is a house of fire right now!

Miggy is da man!

Between him and Pujols in the NL one of them is going win a Triple Crown in the next few years.

hasn't been done since Yaz in 1967.

 

[Xenophon]

NY wins again behind a beautiful effort from petit and new folk hero Nick Swisher.

Certainly from each league they have to be the two favorites.

 

[Article 15]

Oh, man ...

The Angels are letting all their emotions out right now and it's ugly.

 

[Article 15]

Hunter is ejected. It looks like they threw out Scioscia, too. They might've tossed Speier, I'm not sure.

And now Youk and Drew have gone back to back.

 

[Article 15]

Yep they tossed Speier and Mickey Hatcher, too.

Nice comeback by the Tigs today. A six run eighth giving them a 6-4 win for a 3 game sweep of Texas. Brandon Inge and the bullpen the heroes - whoda thunk it?

Over .500 for the first time this year, and leading the AL Central. Whoo-hoo!

Grats to the Tigers. They're a year late but I'm sure Detroit fans aren't complaining now.

The Central is going to be a fun division to watch this season.

Long way to go yet, but it might be a fun season. White Sox up next, which will tell us more about how good we are or aren't.

We couldn't go today (Easter Day lunch with the family) so we gave the tickets to my daughter's best friend and her family. They went but - get this - left at the top of the 8th because the Tigs were down 4-0 and showing no signs of life!!! Oh, how they must be kicking themselves!!!

Looking forward to seeing the Angels game highlights on Sportscenter tonight - WTF happened???

There was a really late time call with Abreu at the plate, Beckett threw through it and the pitched buzzed Abreu's head.

Hunter, Speier, and Hatcher went completely berserk. I think they had a ton of pent up emotion and it was the little spark they needed to let it fly.

I've been there before, I could tell they were seeing red.

Yeah - I saw it. It didn't look like there was anything bubbling under between the teams before that, and there didn't seem to be anything malicious in the pitch - just one that got away.

Giradi blew the game yesterday, over managed and ended up on the losing end, so no sweep of KC.

On to the rays!

Think they miss Joe Torre? I think Girardi's days are numbered.

No.

Torre was a horrible field manager, what Giradi did is exactly what Torre often did, over manage.

Torre is a good PR guy, he was ok on teh field when Don Zimmer made the baseball moves, but after Zim was fired you could see Torre was clueless.

I can't believe they fired Lou Piniella.

Cubs are 5-2. Yippie!!

 

[Article 15]
