Tough loss for the Tigers this afternoon; Twins win 3-2.
Standings are the least of my concern...just as long as we're playing well, everything else will take care of itself.
Whats with these 2 game series, we had one with Cleveland last week ...
Jhonny Peralta is quietly having a fantastic year at the plate; 4 for 4 this afternoon with 3 RBIs. Tigers are up 5-3 in the 7th inning.
I was gonna bring that very issue up earlier but forgot about it.
It's quite amazing how he can be playing soooo much better at the plate this year vs last.
It's like he alternates good and bad years at the plate. We should bench him next year because he's going to suck once again. Go figure!
Well, others wanted them to go with Santiago at SS this year and dump Peralta, maybe they can play Santiago next year and put Peralta on the DL for the year ... (incapable of playing like the even numbered years) think MLB would question this at all ?
They said Peralta lost a lot of weight over the off season and that he felt much better, and so far the difference has been STUNNING.
I talked to my mom a short while ago. It's been raining all day in the Metro Detroit area and they are forecasting more rain tonight. It's beginning to look like tonight's game against Pittsburgh will be cancelled, which always makes for a strange schedule later in the year.
Yeah it has been absolutely pouring today in Fenton. It takes me about 45 minutes to an hour to get to Comerica depending on traffic but if this keeps up I wouldn't expect them to play tonight. The sun is peeking out a little bit for the first time today though.

Somewhat surprised the Tigers are playing tonight, but even more surprised the game is scoreless going into the 7th inning.
