I know I am late with this, but I was in transit from work to home when this happened. If you give me a hard time about it, I will look for you, I WILL find you, and I will stare at you disapprovingly.
THE BUS WAS LATE, BUT THE BUS IS HERE
I am starting to understand why Anderson has been pitching in Japan for the last three years.
But it sure doesn't seem like any pitchers in Toledo are showing major league stuff.
This team, the way it is now, isn't going to scratch and claw for anything. They're the softest Wings team since the 70's.
Las night they could have gone out and played for pride, but instead got destroyed because they have no pride.
Mo is the only one I care about. They can trade every other player and I wouldn't care, because they don't seem to.
Having fun with A.I. image generator for fictional MLB teams that I will use in OOTP.
I present, the eventual expansion team............The Indianapolis Ignition
Too young to remember 1968
The 1987 final two weekends. Four in Toronto and then 3 in Detroit. All 7 games were 1-run games. Tigers lost the first 3 in TO. Bill Madlock got death threats for his slide that broke Tony Fernandez' arm. Going into that week against the Orioles it was over. We were asking the O's right fielder for the Blue Jays v. Brewers score because we could not see the big scoreboard. I went to all 3 games that last weekend. They were all one-run games. Friday night Scott Lusader made a game-saving diving catch. Jim Walewander scored from second in the 12th inning to win the seond game. Waited in line all night outside the stadium for tickets to Sunday's game. And you know how that one went. Man, you talk about tense. My heart couldn't take that now.
They were spent for the Minnesota series. The last hurrah for that amazing 80's group. It was wonderful. I am not, nor have I ever been a religious person. Tiger Stadium was the closest thing to a Cathedral for me.
From 14 wins to 60 in two seasons - without getting a superstar - that's incredible. J.B. has to get coach of the year this year. Should have had it last year.
