I agree about Inge. I'm to the point now where I would rather see the pitchers bat and use the DH for Inge.

Inge has become Mr. Automatic Out on this team. This is unfortunate, since he sure has the talent. I am not sure what it is with him, but he needs to get his head on straight. Otherwise he'll be shipped outta here faster than you can say "strikeout".

That is actually against the rules. I didn't know that, but looked it up, and the DH can only be used for the pitcher's substitute.

Sent him straight from KC huh? Didn't even have time to fly back to his apartment or "extended stay" unit in Michigan to pick up his personal items...

I guess we will see if the next experiment in Vasquez will work tonight. Maybe the bats will come out to give him some run support??

Tigers lose in what should of been a win. They blew a 7-0 lead and end up losing 8-7 in 10 innings. Just a bad loss. It's September and there is no room to be blowing games like this, especially when the Yankees AND Mariners lose and what could of been picking up some ground in the wildcard. Only good news is Kenny Rogers is coming back and starting Wednesday against the White Sox...

This team missed a golden opportunity on Sunday by not winning.

Worst loss of the season IMO...leading 7-0 midway through the game and then losing the game even after knowing the Yankees, Indians, and Mariners had already put up L's before the Tigers even took the field.

Rodney and Todd Jones cound not retire their first five batters and JL stuck with them...oh well, blame the pitchers and the coach on this one. Of course the bats went silent for the last 5 innings tooo............

Only 2.5 back now in the Wild Card race as the Mariners beat the Stinkees. Wild card still attainable; division a pipe dream with Cleveland up 6.

I think this whole season is a pipe dream. The team has too many holes. Looks like they overachieved last season. Looks just like White Sox when they got their 'ship.

The real Tigers lost to a .500 team during the World Series. The team that cleaned up during the American League playoffs just got lucky.
