Greinke hurt

orcinus · Post by **orcinus** » Thu Apr 07, 2005 6:23 pm

Drilled by a Carlos Guillen line drive just above the wrist on his throwing hand and left the game (after throwing a few test pitches).

Dammit.

Nate Field and his gas can to the rescue.

I was wondering why he went out so early. Atleast Field isn't getting lit up like he did on Monday. Pena's had to use his 'pen quite a bit in this series...losing Greinke after less than three innings isn't going to help matters. Johnson's pitching well today...he threw a great game to start last season as well. It seems inevitable that the rubber game of this series would be low scoring after each team traded blowout wins in the first two.

Did Guillen get the hit or get thrown out?

Shoalzie · Post by **Shoalzie** » Thu Apr 07, 2005 6:45 pm

The boxscore says he got an infield single for it...got him on your fantasy team or something?

Cueball · Post by **Cueball** » Thu Apr 07, 2005 6:49 pm

Yep, stole him last year late. Any chance he stole 2nd?

orcinus · Post by **orcinus** » Thu Apr 07, 2005 6:52 pm

The box score actually said he tripped over his own laces rounding first and collapsed a lung.

Had to be airlifted out of the park.

Asshole.

That sucks, did Jason Smith replace him and steal 3rd?

orcinus · Post by **orcinus** » Thu Apr 07, 2005 6:57 pm

No ... Smith was eaten by an escaped tiger during a pre-game promotion that went awry.

You're right...nice smack on Jason Smith.

Farnsworth rolls back to the top of our lineup in the eighth.

Gotta get through the bottom of the 7th first...Tigers are back to the top of their order too.

It's going to be a long year for Affeltdt, at this rate.

Might as well bring in MacMuffin and let him hit someone.

Shawn Camp is really struggling out there.

Dammit, full meltdown in play in the bottom of the seventh. Fuckers are going to miss their flight if they don't get some outs.

PS: Should I contest my own trade for Greinke?

Shoalzie · Post by **Shoalzie** » Thu Apr 07, 2005 7:29 pm

The Tigers seemed to be hitting everything to Teahen during that inning and couldn't make any plays. It snowballed quickly into a huge inning.

Prototype · Post by **Prototype** » Thu Apr 07, 2005 7:37 pm

There's one back thanks to Sweeney's powerful groundout. Anyone else think we should dump him and have a payroll less than $25M?

Shoalzie · Post by **Shoalzie** » Thu Apr 07, 2005 7:38 pm

Damn, the shutout is broken up...Ugy hasn't looked too hot in his two innings of work so far this year. Hopefully Tram brings in Percival for the 9th.

Cripes...Pena using the whole 'pen...is Affeldt the only arm left after MacDougal?

Prototype · Post by **Prototype** » Thu Apr 07, 2005 7:47 pm

He is already up to last years form. Walked Infante to lead off the inning (4 straight?), why the hell would Guillen swing at anything that guy throws? He must have been defending himself. MacDougal is Irod's wet dream, the guy loves shitty pitches and MacDougal has as much a chance of putting one in the dugout as he does across the plate, single to center.

How the hell do both runners advance on a grounder to the mound? At least he got an out. Logan better have his helmet on snug, someone is due to get HBP.

What's up with him not playing with the big team...he always wears out Tigers pitching.

Did he try to steal home? Why the hell not. Buck play the hide the ball trick on him?

Greinke had an x-ray. Nothing is broken just a bad bruise.

Can't we just go ahead and cancel the season? I don't know how much longer in my life I can take this :(

At least a little good news then.

With how bad the Tigers' pen has been recently, they had to get one of the closers that were available. I don't know if they ever pursued Benitez. Percival wanted to be in Detroit from the moment he made his visit. As long as he doesn't blow many saves, I can look past his salary. The Cubs and Mets would love to have him right now...that's probably why the Tigers had to sweeten the deal.

(as Tony Bruno) It's a final...those Detroit Tigers win, 7-3!

I have him in Omaha in 2005. Went and got me a Free agent and the Video game version of myself. Atleast were hanging around .500 in my own fantasy world :(

I have Buck's sorry sack of shit ass down there as well.
