Going to the 9th inning with a 2-run lead. Gee, I wonder what Valverde is doing these days?
WHY ???
WHY ???
Just wanted to point-out that he's no longer scaring the crap out of Tigers fans. For Halloween I'm going to put on a Valverde jersey and walk down Woodward Avenue. Talk about fright night!!!
Don't know how many people have seen this bit of info ....

Jhonny Peralta moving to left field
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com
Tigers infielder Jhonny Peralta will report Wednesday to the team's spraing training complex in Florida, the Detroit News reports. Peralta is 10 days from finishing his 50-game suspension.
Peralta will work with the coaching staff and is expected to transition to play left field for the Tigers. That is where the Tigers would most need his production upon his return.

Left Field? Good move or bad move? Regardless, the Tigers are going to have a formidable starting lineup at the plate come playoff time:
Jackson CF .275
Hunter RF .296
Cabrera 3B .350
Fielder 1B .281
Martinez DH .299
Infante 2B .316
Peralta LF .305
Avila/Pena C .225/.306
Iglesais SS .313
Hell, they won't skip a beat with the bottom half of the lineup.

Not sure how to look at it with Peralta ....
Can he really be expected to learn LF in 10 days adequate enough to play in the playoffs ?
I take it that the PED players are eligible for the Playoffs ...
Have they given up on thier prodigy Castellonos playing LF ?
Will they re sign Peralta in the off season to play LF ?
A quick look, I thought Peralta was 34-35, but he's not, he's 31 now.
I say IF he doesn't want the bank and plays LF well, resign him.

My immediate concern is the upcoming playoff season...I want to win now and worry about tomorrow another day. Given the option between Peralta and Delmon Young, I'd take Peralta sight unseen any day. I think he'll be find in LF, but you can always platoon him with Andy Dirks until he gets the swing of things.
If the season ended Today ....
The Tigers would play Oakland in the first round ...
This is the team that worries me the most.

I'm not worried about Oakland. We're going to pummel Oakland, Boston and whomever the victim is we're playing in the World Series. I'm counting both my eggs and my chickens, and getting ready to pump my fists high into the air in celebration. Getting to the World Series is nice, but losing felt like getting bend-over and drilled repeatedly by a gaggle of sexting depraved politicians. We're going to win this year, and we're going to destroy whomever is in our way!
Magic Number 7
Sanchez is pitching for the Tigers this evening. You gotta believe the odds are better than 70% that the magic number will drop by at least one this evening. Go Tigers!

Sanchez is pitching well already with 7 strikeouts but it's still scoreless going into the bottom of the 4th. Tigers starters are on-track to break the record for most strikeout by a pitching staff by the 2003 Chicago Cubs.
Miggy finally hits one out; 2-1 Tigers bottom of the 6th. Need Prince to hit one back-to-back.
Iggy bobbled a double-play ball (something we haven't seen) and now it's up to Phil Coke to pitch himself out of a jam.
