With the DH, think Francisco, C. Johnson and Freeman will all be in the lineup?
Do you think it will be that way every game (3 RH scheduled pitchers for Tigers)?
I think all three will be in the lineup and I hope so for every game.
I would like to see Francisco as DH and C. Johnson at third, but I have a feeling our manager might not take that approach for every game…

Not able to watch the game tonight. What the heck?
April 26th, 2013 at 10:17 pm
@77 me neither, started watching it was 0-0. Ate, came back it was 10-0. My fault- sorry!

Only two more years left on Uggla’s contract after this year. Thank God. What a disappointment.

I was bored and decided to search mlb.com video database. I came up on some Andruw Jones videos and realized he turned 36 a couple days ago. Here some videos to bring back some memories.
The walk off

Wow
http://losangeles.angels.mlb.com/video/play.jsp?content_id=20227695&c_id=mlb
Never seen this
http://losangeles.angels.mlb.com/video/play.jsp?content_id=25781067&c_id=mlb
Ive seen this
http://losangeles.angels.mlb.com/video/play.jsp?content_id=20030483&c_id=mlb
According to Baseball reference, he also has the highest defensive WAR of any outfielder in MLB history. 400 HR + best defensive outfielder of all time = HOFamer to me.
Japan stats

Ok enough of my random Andruw Fandom. Blame BJ
April 27th, 2013 at 8:21 am
@78 so nice to have somebody to blame.
April 27th, 2013 at 12:19 pm
I’d really appreciate it if BJ, Uggla, and Simmons started to hit a little bit sometime soon. We can’t have half our lineup batting under .200
April 27th, 2013 at 9:33 pm
@ 80 oops i did it again…
April 27th, 2013 at 9:38 pm
@82 Would you stop! I promise if you weren’t half way around the world…
April 28th, 2013 at 5:18 pm
@79, hopefully we’re not saying that about BJ in 3 years.
April 28th, 2013 at 6:33 pm
@84 – I’m getting ready to say it about BJ in by the trade deadline this year.
April 28th, 2013 at 7:26 pm
Gattis seems like he can’t hit outside pitches
April 28th, 2013 at 7:28 pm
Curt is correct. Strike outs are bad.
April 28th, 2013 at 7:29 pm
Seems like Uggla can’t hit breaking balls.
April 28th, 2013 at 8:45 pm
Love the Reed Johnson story about having t-shirts made for the team. “Suffer in silence”. Don’t know if I agree with the slogan but like the action.
April 28th, 2013 at 9:01 pm
I want Infante back.
April 28th, 2013 at 9:19 pm
This game went bad fast. Thank god for Mad Men.
April 28th, 2013 at 9:31 pm
not fun anymore
