Hell of a start again tonight. 11 K's no walks. I'd say 3-4 more starts like this and the AA chatter will begin

Wait a second here, Brackman is in High A as a 24 year old and you're getting excited for a promotion to AA? Haha yeah I understand that.

I'm excited for Charlie Furbush, so I understand a little bit. That could be because the Tigers system is pretty barren at this point, but still.

Ehh I know he's a 1st rounder but to get excited for 6 starts and a promotion to AA as a 24 year old seems a bit depressing.

Yeah that's what I figured obviously. I think we have what it takes but that would be too much.

Future set up man Jenry Mejia, future 4th outfielder Fernando Martinez and future Jason Donald esque Wilmer Flores for Dan Haren?

Ummm, correction. Future CLUTCH 4th outfielder.
Fernando crashed a game-winning Grand Slam in the bottom of the 9th tonight.

Hey, there's nothing wrong with a Jason Donald-type. Their above average speed will have even the umps with the best reputations missing calls in no time.

Haha no, I won't give you the satisfaction anymore. It looks like I'll be going to Mets/Tigers next week.

Torri Hunter just gave Casey McGehee a HR. Would have stayed in the park, but he knocked the ball over the fence with his glove.

Burrell hit a homer tonight and has been great for the Giants (haven't seen him play the field).

1. I'm sorry, does .236/.300/.641 break the sound barrier nowadays?
2. If Mejia ends up in the bullpen, you'll just be jealous because he'll be better than Kyle Farnsworth Jr. otherwise known as Max Scherzer.
3. 4th outfielder you say? Quick, what do you think Austin Jackson's going to be when his BABIP regresses and he's nothing more than a singles hitter with no power or walking ability?
4. Good year for future fringe 4, #5 Rick Porcello huh?
