Santana takes too many good pitches. I don't think I've ever seen a batter jump away from so many strikes over the inside corner of the plate.

Detroit:

Friday = Tomlin 12-5 vs Scherzer 12-7

Saturday = Huff 1-1 vs Fister 4-13

Sunday = Jimenez 7-9 vs Porcello 11-8

Another pressure packed series to weather. I'm hoping to take 2 of 3 but 1 will be acceptible. With a little luck, a sweep is not out of the realm of possibility. Here's hoping that Santana and Choo bring their "A" games with. Some interesting matchups in this series. Nice stepping stone series to build on heading towards September. Gotta take advantage of the fact that we won't see Verlander in this series.

Good game last night.

To respond to KenM post about LaPorta. If you record his at bats and play them back slowly one can notice that he sometimes does not follow the ball in with his head and eyes and swings hard at where he thinks it is going to be. Most good hitters follow the ball to the bat contact. La Porta has power and when he makes contact it can fly but somehow he has to train his following the ball to the contact point. Late movement makes him look pretty silly. I wonder if training with a machine that starts slow and picks up speed later would help.

1-5 gb/fb ratio through 2. That's not a good sign...

I remember going to a reunion game against TB awhile ago -- Westbrook was pitching, and he similarly had a lot of fly balls.

I told Denver Winterhaven Cleveland Lou that we were in trouble.

We were. That's the game Coco botched a sac bunt. Don't remember the year....I was with Donna, and I think JR was there also.

Donna got us into the Loge for a bit!
