                                I just sit here and lol. The dodgers have a better lineup this year alone. Go look at Boston's lineup...better than detroits with a lot less holes. With Miggy basically useless, detroits lineup just isn't that great.

It was very interesting. I think the right call on that would have been a double if the home team was in the field, and an out if the visiting team were in the field like they were in this case.

                                So if the Rays were going to let Ellsbury have 2nd without a play, why would they not try to throw out Bogaerts trying for 3rd on the 2 out hit to center on the previous play?

                                Seems like 75% of the players remaining in the playoffs are either fiery or gritty.
The only fiery or gritty players on the Reds are some of their pitchers.

                        They were probably going to. The players probably thought so for sure until a pitching change was made and Peralta with the huge leg kick came in.mhs95_06;1515248 wrote:So if the Rays were going to let Ellsbury have 2nd without a play, why would they not try to throw out Bogaerts trying for 3rd on the 2 out hit to center on the previous play?

And his hat looks like an old man that fell down with a hat on and makes his way back to his feet.

Granted I dont know Boston or LAD line-ups like I know Detroits (in terms of who played all year), but way to conveniently list a line-up who has played 3 total games together lol. Detroits bottom 3, any combo of Garcia, Santiago, Dirks, Kelly, Tuiasosopo, was terrible.
The LAD line-up is with Ethier in it, because he played almost all year. Not with Kemp, who was out over half the games.

                        But that is currently the Tigers lineup. I don't think that they're better than those teams but it's pretty damn even. If the Tigers were dominant they would have won 100+ games, and the reason they don't mainly is lack of speed and defense. Peralta is a below average LF, Miggy can't move, Omar has no range and Prince is well Prince. Hunter and Jackson are good but that's it and is a main concern since that is what usually wins tight games. However the pitching staff is pretty damn goodLaley23;1515261 wrote:I mean, lets compare to the 2 teams I mentioned.

Granted I dont know Boston or LAD line-ups like I know Detroits (in terms of who played all year), but way to conveniently list a line-up who has played 3 total games together lol. Detroits bottom 3, any combo of Garcia, Santiago, Dirks, Kelly, Tuiasosopo, was terrible.
The LAD line-up is with Ethier in it, because he played almost all year. Not with Kemp, who was out over half the games.
