But with his buddy Tony gone, I seriously doubt he'll be back.

The guy is a ****ing genius - like Frankenstein putting good pitchers together out of the spare parts of bad ones. And I'll never forget in Game 7, where Carpenter was getting lit up early - Duncan went out to the mound, said something to him, and he was lights out for the rest of the game. Don't know what he said, but it clearly worked.
Spot on....if Duncan isn't back the pitching staff is taking a HUGE downgrade.

I felt the same way when Leo Mazzone left for Baltimore and was replaced with McDowell. It actually turned out well for Atl, as Mazzone is now out of the game and McDowell and he has a damn good starting staff.

If this is true, now my $12 dixie cup sized mixed drink will now cost me $15....

The Nationals stadium have the most obnoxious price gouging. I prefer driving an extra 20 minutes to Camden Yards even though the O's suck right now.

He was gone during pretty much the entire month of September when the starters had their most consistant stretch of baseball all season.

It will hurt but lets not get carried away.

So, he'd be a DC Fat Cat.

Someone just tweeted he officially signed an 8 year deal with the Nats.

Is it Detroit or Washington?

Detroit makes no sense with Cabrera.

The real @JonHeymanCBS says Prince deal is for $214. That's over nine years.

He's hashtagging it #tigers.

They better hope he can stay healthy

KC_Connection 01-24-2012 02:28 PM
Yeah, Heyman's a legitimate source. Fielder is a Tiger...for a long time apparently.
