Defeat
I’m still recovering from the Tigers’ shocking defeat at the hands of the Cardinals this past week. The upside is that we saw a little consistency from Detroit. Yep, just like in the 2006 World Series, fielding by the pitchers was once again atrocious. And when Verlander gets knocked around the way he did despite the season he’s been having, you know it’s going to be a rough week. However, it’s even worse knowing what the price of that defeat will be.
But, it can always be worse. At least I’m not in Jason Jones’ shoes:
Iran: now that’s defeat. Happy Friday!

Don’t worry, Allen, your Tigers will still win the division this year. I mean really, who’s going to catch them? The Twins will be lucky to finish over .500 and the front office doesn’t like to make any drastic moves at the trade deadline. The White Sox have a lot of issues, and the Cleveland bullpen can’t even hold a six-run lead against the Cubs. So while you might lose some silly bet with Jeff, at least the Tigers will be playing October baseball.
