Add V-MArt and a few other changes and they should be right in contention again.
As we have mentioned a month or so ago, theres alot of Tigers that won't be back or we expect won't be back.
So next years team could be quite a bit different and even stronger next year, can't wait for April !
Guys. Thank you for a great civilized conversation this series. This was a hell of a last game. And the series was incredibly well pitched on both sides. Tigers had a great run, but I think the layoff ended up costing them more they they were willing to let on thus far.
Reds fans are gonna have nightmares all offseason- they had 3 killshots at home on the Giants, and now they're champs again.
THIS is why you must not waste any opportunities in the baseball playoffs.
Another thing I learned- the Giants do not die. They are unkillable. SIX win-or-you're-dead games and they won them all.
They just don't know how to lose money games in October.

I run a huge west coast community for gamers and everyone went on crazy!
SF GIANTS BABY!
On a total unrelated note, I wish our local NBC affiliate would stop playing the " Bless you boys" theme from 1984, it's really annoying, especially the past two times the tigers have been to the World Series they have lost
Congrats though to the giants

The Giants reminded me of the 2011-2012 L.A. Kings' postseason run. From game 1 of the playoffs it was their destiny to win. Amazing. Congrats to all Giants fans.
I wouldnt change that much of the team because they did make the World Series.
Congrats to the Giants. They played hard and were very resillant. Every game it was somebody different. Kung Fu Panda, Scutaro and last night Ryan Theriot. I had thought the Tigers got a break when Fielder stepped on first base and had I think, Scutaro in a run down. I think it was in the 7th inning. In fact, Roberto Kelly, 1st base coach of the Giants, thought Fielder didnt touch the bag.
Congrats to the Giants and all SF fans. Being from NY I still meet old folks who miss their NY Giants baseball team. They were clearly the best all around team to win it all.
Another baseball season is in the books, and it's this day that my mind reflects to the late, great Bart Giamatti and this poignant poem:
The Green Fields of the Mind
by A. Bartlett Giamatti
It breaks your heart. It was designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone. You count on it, rely on it to buffer the passage of time, to keep the memory of sunshine and high skies alive, and then, just when the days are all twilight, when you need it most, it stops.

My favorite quote is:
"People ask me what I do in winter when there's no baseball. I'll tell you what I do. I stare out the window and wait for Spring!"
Rogers Hornsby
