We need to pull this one out. The team has shown resiliency so hopefully they can do it. First place is on the line so hopefully Shields can show why we traded for him.

First place is on the line so hopefully Shields can show why we traded for him.

IMO, hes already proven that. Its the offense that hasnt shown up for him.

I cant hold losses against him much if hes making 2 or 3 bad pitches a game. YOu cant expect a guy to be perfect every outing.

4-0 Detroit shuts us out.
Moose goes 0-4 with three K's.
Frenchy doesn't get a ball out of the infield.
We strand eight or nine guys in scoring position.

Line ups are out. Frankly, I'm surprised that Moose isn't getting the day off. But if you're going to play him, Ned, why in God's name is he still in the 6th slot? Flip him and Salvy, you moron!

Detroit Tigers:
1. CF: Austin Jackson
2. RF: Torii Hunter
3. 3B: Miguel Cabrera
4. 1B: Prince Fielder
5. DH: Victor Martinez
6. SS: Jhonny Peralta
7. LF: Don Kelly
8. C: Alex Avila
9. 2B: Omar Infante

Kansas City Royals:

2. SS: Alcides Escobar
3. DH: Billy Butler
4. 1B: Eric Hosmer
5. CF: Lorenzo Cain
6. 3B: Mike Moustakas

The fans in Milwaukee said Ned's biggest problem was he was overly loyal to his young players, and would stick by them even if it hurt the ballclub. It cost him his job with the Brewers.

Not gonna do the whole spiel, but I'll toss in the usual "lineups are almost irrelevant" comment here.

The only thing that matters is your best hitters should be in the top 3 or 4, and a high-OBP guy might be marginally good at leadoff. Aside from that, its been shown that lineups don't really matter.

After the first 4, draw names out of a hat for all I care.

Do you have a problem with Frenchy and Moose going back to back when they're both hitting like complete shit? How many base runners have been negated because of two guaranteed consecutive outs?

Even Gold Glovers don't make that play every time. There's probably nothing harder than diving for a groundball and fielding it. Especially when it's hit that sharply.

I agree. However, he needs to get his ass to Omaha where he can work on his game at the plate. We can't use the Big League Club as an instructional Team.

One year the Royals gave away John Buck T Shirts, and on the night of the giveaway, Buck's batting average was .125.

Lovely. Maybe that's why the only bobblehead for a player this year is Butler. The other bobbleheads are mustard, ketchup and relish.

At this point, what would we be giving up if we let Tejada start a few games in a row at 3rd? Even his old ass can't be any worse than Moose

Hopefully Big game James is ready to finish this game strong because the chance of scoring anymore seems very low.

We had a Tony Pena Jr. bobblehead once.

Hosmer unnecessarily cut the ball off on its way to home and allowed the sacrifice fly to work. Hosmer was only about 20 feet from the plate. He definitely should have let it go.

Maybe Shields will throw at Martinez or Fielder and we'll get to see James knock either of their shit out pending a mound charge.

Both hits today have come with two strikes. Nothing wrong with hitting it to the opposite field in those situations. But he does need to turn on some balls more.
