Posted By: <b>Frank Wakefield</b><p>There we go!!!!<br /><br />Glad you Tigers fans got one into the win column. Congratulations.<br /><br />Edgar Renteria, my dear former Cardinal shortstop, had a good night. I'm glad he's on my fantasy team, even if he isn't still scooping grounders in St. Louis.

Posted By: <b>Matt</b><p>Detroit pitchers yesterday achieved the equivalent of every position player getting a hit; every pitcher gave up at least 1 run. <br />But who needs good pitching when your offense can score 6 runs!

Posted By: <b>Todd Schultz</b><p>but problem is Dan, that's their first win against the Royals--they're 1-6. They also beat the Twins earlier this year 19-3. Impressive, but they're only 5-10 against Minnesota on the season. Last I looked a few weeks ago, they led the majors in being shut out.<br /><br />They COULD turn it on enough to take the division, only because the Twins are young and the Sox have Ozzie Guillen. Still, they likely are outside looking in, and they've got no shot in the postseason under any circumstances. They'd be better off trading Mags for a pitcher, and dumping Pudge and Sheffield at year end, earlier if they can get a decent return.<br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Frank Wakefield</b><p>Alright!!!!!<br /><br />They've won 2 in a row. If they can tack 2 more wins onto that, they will have reached .500 !!!!!!<br /><br />Then look out central division. No telling what could happen in Septpember.

Posted By: <b>Frank Wakefield</b><p>Greatest Team update...<br /><br /><br />A 6 run 5th inning propels the Tigers past KC, for a 6-3 win. Improving the Tigers' record to 65-69. Still a shot at reaching .500 with a good, no a great September.

Posted By: <b>Bob</b><p>Guess my April 8th pick of the Twins and Sox, not the Tigers and Injuns is holding up <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br />It's going to come down to the wire in the AL Central with whomever has the better bullpen (both have been horrible lately) winning it. Still a chance the loser can edge out the Bosox for the wild card and watch the tv executives dive out the window if the Yanks, Red Sox and Mets don;t make the playoffs :-P

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>Bob, I haven't been on top of it but what was the consensus about the Twins waiting so long to bring Liriano back? From the outside it seemed insane...especially if they lose the division by a game or two.

Posted By: <b>Dan Koteles</b><p>bonderman exited early and Willis was a flop. Carlos Guillen injured and Leyland was so far from managing what was thought to be the best lineup in baseball. The Tiger brass needs to focus on a speedster in LF, sign J.J.Hardy to play ss as my inside source states they are going after him and get the big name pitcher they said that must happen. Other then this.........wasnt I close?

Posted By: <b>PC</b><p>As the saying goes, close only counts for horseshoes and grenades. The Tigers are a bomb, which could describe a grenade, so perhaps you were close.<br /><br /><br />Also, if "not possible to be more wrong" = close, then yes, you were close. Better than close.<br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Frank Wakefield</b><p>Right you are, Robert, they fought their way to last place.<br /><br /><br />But it wasn't easy. I think they had the second highest on field payroll in the game this year. Players that good at picking agents that good at negotiating salaries... well those players would win at least half of their game, many (I was going to type 'one', when I thought of tape worms) would think.

Posted By: <b>Frank Wakefield</b><p>The season was scheduled to end on Sept 28th.<br /><br />And those glorious Tigers were still at work on the field<br />on Sept 29 !!!!<br /><br />A real die-nasty. <br /><br /><br />So what is the payroll/standing results?? The Yankees had the<br />largest payroll, they're not in the playoffs. The Tigers had<br />the next largest payroll and they're out. Anyone know who was<br />third and fourth? And the payroll ranks for the teams that made the playoffs?

Posted By: <b>Mark</b><p>Frank:<br />In reference to your post above, the Mariners were the first team EVER to spend over 100 million in salary, and lose 100 games. Perhaps even more overpaid than the Tigers.... at least a worse "salary to win" ratio. I think Sexson made over 17 million, and check out his stats...<br /><br />Dan:<br />Not to pile on, but I think you meant to tell Robbie "I wouldn't HAVE had to look it up..."
