Thanks Dnt. Beat me to it. If I may be so bold:

***** The Special Word of the Day is:

Optimist. Anyone using this word in this thread at least once automatically joins the Game Thread Ring of Honor. I may even post a nice photo of some sort of ring to honor YOU. :-)

I think so

by **British_Pharaoh** » Wed Jun 22, 2011 8:38 pm

I couldn't believe it cost us both Karsay and Reed for Rocker. Karsay was having a great year.

by **FortheWin** » Wed Jun 22, 2011 9:16 pm

Damn, cut our lead in half.

by **googleeph2** » Wed Jun 22, 2011 9:17 pm

Ya know? Our pitching is pretty awesome. Ty Wigin-freaking-ton or not.

by **dazindiansfanuk** » Wed Jun 22, 2011 9:20 pm

The streak continues for Tomlin.... 27 straight starts with 5 or more IP.

Daisuke Matsuzaka has it...something like 28 or 29, I think.

Katie Witham is growing on me.. don't mind her at all anymore.

by **dazindiansfanuk** » Wed Jun 22, 2011 9:55 pm

Down on the farm Lonnie Chisenhall is back in the lineup for the Clippers after missing some time with a concussion.

3-for-3 with a 3B and 3RBI so far.

Agreed. I'm sure the judgement is not fair, but she does benefit by the extreme loyaly of any guy-fan who likes her.

by **FortheWin** » Wed Jun 22, 2011 9:57 pm

Josh Tomlin hasn't had someone attempt to steal in his last 15 starts!

AMAZING!

by **googleeph2** » Wed Jun 22, 2011 9:59 pm

And a K.
Tomlin, you filthy optmist! (heh)

by **FortheWin** » Wed Jun 22, 2011 9:59 pm

Back to back days someone has a double HR game.

STAY OPTIMISTIC YOU OPTIMISTS!

by **dazindiansfanuk** » Wed Jun 22, 2011 10:00 pm

Wow... that was an absolute hanger!

by **googleeph2** » Wed Jun 22, 2011 10:01 pm

OK, Wigginton gets hit next time up. He deserves it for having been a Det Tiger in the first place.
Prolly is a Wolverine-lover.

I hate Michigan.

by **googleeph2** » Wed Jun 22, 2011 10:05 pm

I mean, I hate Michigan completely. Like, as if they had a good football team. Hate.

People say Vinnie has an offspead pitch. But he threw 157 fastballs to Chris Freakin Nelson.

So does he? Or not?

by **Symbolic47** » Wed Jun 22, 2011 10:08 pm

Damn Wigginton. Still a solid effort by Tomlin. Need the pen to come though tonight.

Vinnie has a nasty slider. He uses it quite often.

Does it again

One thing though, I've never seen him try and front door the slider to righties.

If he could throw that slider to break over the inside corner he'd be unhittable.

by **Symbolic47** » Wed Jun 22, 2011 10:14 pm

Agreed. The guy is only 25(I think). With his success this year, id love to see him develop that in the offseason. Well have a lights out set up man for years. Im really a huge fan of Vinnie. Just love his attitude.

by **Symbolic47** » Wed Jun 22, 2011 10:16 pm

Really? We just made Rex friggin Brothers look like Billy Wagner out there.

by **Am I Here Again?** » Wed Jun 22, 2011 10:19 pm

I'd really like to be an optimist about this game but I don't have a good feeling... I sure hope we don't snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. We NEED this win before we hit the road!
