So we've scored a minimum of 7 runs in all 4 Obaldo starts and are likely going to 1-3 in those games. Detroit made it through their bad relief pitchers with only 2 runs. They got their two good guys now so they should be ok.

I think people are now finding out why Colorado traded this guy.What they will never understand is why we wanted jim.

Alex White got called up, he'll make a start for Colorado this week. Pomeranz had an emergency apendectomy after his great start and his season is done. (Antonneti had inside info on him getting a bad appendix!!)

4.2 shutout for Smith, Pestano, Sipp. Shame Jimenot couldn't hold them to 6!!

That game was going to be devastating for somebody's psyche. Rather Cleveland than the Tiggers.

All things being equal.....Wedgie left Jimenot in just long enough to give up that 8th earned run in 3.1 innings, otherwise it's tied.

Seriously...I think Acta gets a 5 million doller bonus from Detroit should they win the division.He certainly isn't on our side.

By and large I don't have too many problems with Acta. A few odd decisions, he didn't make this trade though. The team rarely packs it in during a game. I think he sets that tone. I can see trying to get an inning or two more from Obaldo...the team does have 4 games in the next 3 days. It's not his fault the guy blows.
