Good thing seasons are 162 games, eh? I think there are a few issues, to be sure, but there is too much talent in Detroit to not have a deep playoff run.

Offensively, the Tigers have fallen off a cliff the past week and a half or so.

This is true, sadly. I choose to look at it as an aberration. lol.

someone explain to me how a 49 yo pitcher who can barely throw 82 mph can put up a 2.28 ERA

Magic, pretty sure he signed that document down at the crossroads.
When he is on he is marvelous to watch as he baffles hitter after hitter.

He hasn't exactly pitched against any high power offenses.

Looks like Darvish may be for real, at least for one game

Michael Pineda has a torn labrum. The best the Yankees can hope for there is that he'll be ready for major league action in May 2013.

Pretty huge loss for the Yanks.

It's too bad that they lost somebody they figured would be an important part of their team, but it's not like they gave up anything to get him.

this goes all the way back to spring training. Everyone knew something was wrong with Pineda. Its the same with this Lincecum situation. Id say in 9 out of 10 cases with pitchers, when there's smoke there's a big fire.
