Pudge will be off of the books next year, and the way that Renteria is playing, he may not be back either. Last I heard, K-Rod of the Orange County LA Angels of Anahiem and surrounding environs had not signed a new deal. Since everything that Todd Jones throws up there these days gets ripped, we need to throw some dough at K-Rod. Oh, and don't tell me the the next great closer for the Tigers will be Zumaya.

The should be in more of a hurry to close out a game they are ahead in the 9th first...

To say the least, something is gonna have to be done about the closing role. Todd was not the answer since he came to Detroit. The man was just a band-aid. It's way overdue that Detroit fix the closing problem, we can't afford to lose anymore games in the top, or bottom, of the ninth. I hear Barowski is out there now...
Oh god, I just said that...

Leyland looks like he's lifting his **** cheek to let a Marlboro sented f a r t.

Stick a fork in the Tigers, I think they're done.

It really doesn't matter, you're still in Detroit!

Slow down Detroit Free Press. Maddux has yet to even come close to uttering a word about wanting out of San Diego. Plus, if you look at the details of Maddux's contract, you'll realize he may not want to go to a city not exactly known for its great golf courses.

Getting 'huffy', Jim Leyland is?

Do not bother with old man Maddux and his variety of slow pitched junk balls. If he ever pitches in the playoffs again he will fool no one and get shelled.

EastCoastKeith, you obviously have never been to Michigan, nor do you know $#*^ about golf. Michigan has been ranked the 3rd or 4th best state for golf for several years. They have some of the country's top public golf courses as well as some very prestigious and nationally recognized private clubs. Not to mention the Buick open every year at Oakland Hills.

Detroit is only 7 games out right now, and Minnesota and Chicago both have holes. The Tigers need to get another starter and some bullpen help, and go for it. Remember the Cardinals in '06? The Tigers are better than them, aren't they?

They weren't in '06. :)

The Tigers are FINALLY back in the race. Not a good time to disrupt whatever chemistry they have now -gotta wait things out for a couple of weeks.

TiCal07, are you trying to compare the golf courses, landscape, and year-round climate of Southern California to the state of Michigan? Come on now...
