We split... We win sanchez's start but verlander gets rocked again and Gonzales baffles tigers hitters.

This will probably be one of Verlander's starts where we're tricked into thinking he's back.

[LionsFan..LOL]

I was thinking the same as GS. Verlander will surprise everyone expecting a terrible performance and dominate the Nationals. Sanchez will be the one that gets lite up.

[lizardking13]

I'm so torn rightnow. I jhave Strasburg on my fantasy team... But... I love my tigers. Not sure if I should just bench him and hope he gets shelled.

[LionsFan..LOL]

Well that's not an ideal start

[lizardking13]

what the hell happened? I just put the game on.

[LionsFan..LOL]

Harper tripled and Zimmerman knocked him in

[lizardking13]

hahaha of course.

[LionsFan..LOL]

Not a good start by Sanchez. Luckily the damaged is limited to just one.

[lizardking13]

I know our guys like to swing at the first pitch, but Strasburg is too good for us to continue doing that. Only miggy is allowed to do that.

[LionsFan..LOL]

I've complained about that for years but it doesn't change. Why continue to make the pitcher's job easy by hacking away? Take a pitch or two and make him work.

[lizardking13]

I hear ya lflol. I can understand hacking against some guys, but not studs like Strasburg. I mean there's a reason the tigers are near the top in most batting categories, we can hit. But jeez... Strasburg will be able to go 8 or 9 innings if we keep this up.

It's one of those cases when it works it's the best thing ever, when it's struggling it looks lazy.

I actually was putting this together and looked at ESPN for stats we are #1 in runs, B.A., and OBP. 3rd in slugging.

I like reading those stats. Just don't **** us over in the playoffs offense!!!

Miggy with the gold glove over there at third! haha
