I don't get the point of playing him when the knee is not good. Completely pointless. I find it hard to believe he doesn't know once he warms up each day whether he is going to be able to drive off it or not.

I don't get it either.  I was content to see him getting on base couple of months ago...he wasn't blocking anyone...but that stopped a while ago.  Yes he should be capable of deciding that he isn't healthy enough to play.

Miggy fouls off a hanging slider right down the middle the pitch before K'ing. That pitch was put on a tee for him and he just couldn't barrel it up, story of the past couple years for him.

Miggy is the negative side of Tigers legends, on the positive side is Justin Verlander who is currently through 6 no hit innings against the Twins with 10Ks. At 91 pitches so unless they just let him empty the tank I don't know if he will be able to go the full 9 but he's been as good as ever tonight. Only Twin to reach base was off a passed strike 3.

You play him because he's a future hall of famer, Ballys has to show the milestone tracker in the stands, and all 9,241 people that showed up bought their tickets to see him swing a bat.
