When Baseball Was Fun

Let’s begin with the “DAY’S OFF” practice of today. WOW! We say WOW, because
today’s players all claim to be in better shape than the players of yesteryear. They
even have their own personal trainers. Why not? They certainly can afford them
with the millions of dollars that they’re paid.
The baseball players of [...]

Tiger fans…we lost to Baltimore on Tuesday, August 4, 2009, by a 10-2 score which
should have been just opposite.
But, don’t worry about JARROD WASHBURN. He’s going to be a steady winning starter.
But, if you’re going to worry…worry about Marcus Thames. We ask you when has he

WBWF has come up with an amazing new statistic to measure how deep the

we do!
He does it over and over. Too many times to list them all here. And, if you
follow [...]

JARROD WASHBURN gives pleasant dreams to JIM LEYLAND. Why? Because he
gives Jim a starting rotation that’s the envy of every other MLB manager. And,
right now they are all jelling.
ARMANDO GALARAGA has found himself and he likes it.
JUSTIN VERLANDER never lost himself and is doing just fine.
EDWIN JACKSON, a Dombrowski steal, is the cream of the [...]

UNBELIEVABLE! Writing about “Mags” Ordonez a Detroit Tiger’s beat writer actually referred to one of his home runs as a “Pop Fly”. We immediately emailed Lynn Henning with the news that never in the history of the game has there ever been a pop fly tater, unless it’s hit in the new Yankee [...]
