Ozzie Guillen fired from Miami Marlins...

Was there an obscenity laced tirade from Oz afterwards? I can't seem to find one on the interwebz. He doesn't seem like the type to quietly clean out his desk and leave the jobsite when pinkslipped.

They'll be paying him to do nothing for the next 3 years.

After his glowing praise of Fidel Castro, it was inevitable he would be gone.

If he got hired by the Yankess, he would praise Adolph Hitler as a leader. He can't help himself.

GO TIGERS!!

Like Bobby V, Ozzy will be fine and will continue his career in baseball for many years to come, whether it be as a manager or whatnot. He just needs the right team and the right players and he'll be fine.

Tigers!!

Ahbroody · 10-24-2012, 03:02 PM

Having played ball through High School superstitions get the best of me.
I think some of the bay area boys need to get over here and break up this Detroit bromance. I will be working tonight but listening in the car at work.

Got Heeeeeeeeeeeeeem!!

Ahbroody · 10-24-2012, 10:11 PM

Got heeeeeeeeem!

Funny all day national media had this victory penciled in for Tigers.
Giants stronger pitches don't pitch till games 3 & 4. This will likely be a long series. Worried as Giants tend to play better when backs against the wall. Hope they don't get ahead of themselves.

ESPN maybe, but the MLB network has shown footage for the past few days of Verlander getting lit up by Giants hitters in the All-Star game. I think they knew what was up. Tigers are still very much alive, just need to get their offense going like business as usual.

That was JV not taking the AS game seriously. It was fairly obvious and he admitted as much later. He was tying to put on a show and throw 200 mph.

The thing that was back breaking was Kung-Fu Panda, who had 12 HR all season, hitting 3 bombs and totalling 5 RBIs I believe all in game 1. The Papa Grande recovery experiment is over. At least we'll never see him take the mound again with a Tigers uni again.

Tig's better get game 2.

Not a knock on Verlander at all here, but not sure I buy his excuse after the AS game.
As for Sandoval, that's just the nature of the postseason.

With all that said, Go Tigers!

Detroit doesn't want to see this guy again

icehog3 · 10-25-2012, 12:40 AM

Giants outhit, outpitched and outfielded the Tigers.

One blown, four to go. Go Tigers!!

kelmac07 · 10-25-2012, 06:56 AM

WOW!! Giants put it on the Tigers last night.

Did they? I hadn't heard.

icehog3 · 10-25-2012, 11:41 PM

Giants firmly in the driver's seat. Outpitched again, masterful job by their staff.

I am a Tigers fan 'til the end, and still hold out hope that home cooking turns this around...but I know 4 out of 5 from a good team on a roll is a longshot.

357 · 10-26-2012, 10:44 AM

Brutal to watch. Every last bounce, roll, and call is going the Giant's way. Fister pitched well despite taking that hit off the noggin that landed in center field. Think about how hard it had to hit to still have enough momentum to carry all the way into center. Man that had to hurt.

Anyway, still clinging to hope. The Tigers record was fantastic at home this year. Those bats better wake up. For the life of me I dont get why Dirks isn't in the lineup. I get R-L thing but Dirks has proven all season he can hit lefties. Garcia didn't give them anything through the first 2.

lol.
Every last bounce call and roll? This implies these games were close and could have gone either way. As to bounce in game 1 you got that two run fortunate bounce off the glove. It was a mistake to put the rookie in and he gave up 2. That game was 8-1 in reality. The tigers and your ace got destroyed in game 1. Destroyed did you miss the Panda taking your ace behind the wood shed? I have yet to see any questionable calls which could have gone either way. Fielder was out. Replay is very clear.

How about the Tigers start hitting the ball? How many hits did the Tigers have last night against a pitcher that had been benched?

How about in a 0-0 game you make the play at the plate to keep it 0-0. Not make the double play because your thinking your just going to magically start hitting.

You sound like that nightengale guy who is eating his hat. The Tigers have been out hit, out pitched, out coached. To say its coming down to bounces rolls and calls is such Crap.

Bottom line...the Tigers just haven't hit the ball.
