I did not know that was the record without Miggy. I guess not then. It must have just been a bad game, that night.

At one of the local cigar shops the other day, met one of the umpires from the crew doing the Reds/Cards ganes here in Cincy. Pretty nice guy (he likes cigars so that's a given right?) and had some funny behind the scenes stories. I now have a pretty good idea what sort of stuff gets discussed at those pitcher's mound conferences.

Must be taking the beating they got out on KC

CigarSquid · 09-06-2013, 09:02 PM

I won the bet Tom. My A's would take the series over his Tigers.

I got these awesome smokes as the win.

Weird thing is, he must had placed the bet with Fielder.. As that is who sent it to me.

AdamJoshua · 09-06-2013, 09:03 PM

Damn RS have 50 hits in the last 3 games and score 4 bazzillion runs!

They are on a serious roll.

CigarSquid · 09-07-2013, 07:28 AM

Tom, I opened the mail box and when I seen Prince Fielder, I just busted up laughing. If people were out side they must have thought I was crazy. I laughed all the way back home(have a apartment style mailbox).

icehog3 · 09-07-2013, 09:10 AM

Glad I made ya giggle, Garry.

AdamJoshua · 09-07-2013, 04:46 PM

Add in a 20-4 pasting of Detroit on Wednesday, and the highest-scoring team in the majors has amassed this four-game total: 54 runs, 17 homers and 64 hits.

They are just destroying pitching now.

icehog3 · 09-07-2013, 07:04 PM

13 more today? BoSox are just rockin' it.

AdamJoshua · 09-07-2013, 07:50 PM

A lot of comparisons to '67, a team picked to finish dead last, 2 starters gone, not including Josh B. being traded away, our closer out for the season then the next closer we got... out for the season, traded away crawford (no big loss) and agon (bigger loss), hell I thought we'd be dead last as well.

Impossible Dream II ?

icehog3 · 09-07-2013, 10:34 PM

If they hit in October like they have in September, they have a shot. If.

icehog3 · 09-08-2013, 10:40 PM

Headed to the Cell Monday night to watch Scherzer go for #20 versus Sale and the White Sux. Going with a guy on my hockey team who is a huge Sux fan, should be fun....for one of us.

CigarSquid · 09-12-2013, 07:26 AM

Good game for the A's. 18-3 over the Twins. Keep it up, now 3 games ahead of Texas. Got my step dad and uncle buying playoff tickets. Now, all I have to do is find out how to get out of work for 1 day.

357 · 09-19-2013, 12:28 PM

Tigers offense is sleepy. They need to WAKE UP!

icehog3 · 09-19-2013, 02:26 PM

Agreed, Mike, this is the wrong time of year to start getting sleepy.

357 · 09-19-2013, 02:32 PM

Tom, how do you feel about the idea of bringing Jhonny P back?

The talk is they're going to put him in left field. Not sure I like that idea. I think IF they feel it's worthwhile to bring him back, bring him in selectively off the bench as a pinch hitter, not in starting in LF. IMO, Dirks/Tui are each batting 265-ish. Jhonny's 295 isn't worth the lack of range/skill at that position. If Tui can't get out of his funk, get Castellanos more reps between now and October. Just my

icehog3 · 09-19-2013, 02:35 PM

I like the idea of Peralta getting his hacks, Mike, but I certainly understand your defensive concerns. Tigers' hitting is an issue now, wouldn't hurt to get his bat in the line-up. Maybe AJ can just shade towards left?

Yeah, they'll put a shift on; except not because the hitter pulls, because Jhonny can't run.
