2012 MLB Season - Progressive Rock Music Forum

Wow!! I did not see this one coming: http://www.tsn.ca/mlb/story/?id=409433

Those NL/AL blockbusters can be a thing of beauty. Or perhaps I'm way too nostalgic for the Carter/Alomar trade. LOL

A fun place to review and discuss metal: MetalMusicArchives

Swisher is a solid player, and he has a good eye and can be very stubborn at the plate. I really would miss him, but he's just a total playoff bust. Not a great player but could be a decent pick up. Just dont spend much LOL

If I was a team in desperate need, clearly the Tigers are not one, I'd sign him.

Soriano doesn't have much of a resume, and I'd find it ironic if someone gave him big bucks and he flops...but if he keeps up that play, it'll hurt to see him go. Still I think the pen/Robertson can cover.

I really hope they keep Ichiro.

Granderson has taken a lot of flak after the WS, with many read to send him packing. Even I am shocked at this level of fickleness! Give the guy at least another year. I like him.

And A Bomb....you miserable wretch what the hell is gunna happen with you? Talk about lose lose. Either he goes back to his spot and plays like he's been playing, or they keep screwing around and make another circus. I'll hold naive faith that this will all inspire him to not suck but I know better Cry

Huzzah! With power back I can unleash all my pent up sports rage!

While that used to be a sad joke...it seems perfectly reasonbale now, at least on paper.

Yanks seem dedicated (at least in word) to lowering budget : O : O

Soriano has been let go, I think we can cope and frees up $13mill and Swisher will most likely go. I like him but would 100% support the move, and frees another 10 mill I believe. And hes a post season flop.

Baby steps in the right direction.

There are rumors about bringing in Josh Hamilton though....great player but gotta be concerned with his addiction issues in the biggest stage of them all. For his sake almost seems wrong to do

And so ends a pretty exciting, tense, and wild season. Even if the scheduling in the post season was a little whacky.

Im sure there will be grumbles about the Giants being in constant playoff mode while the Tigers had to sit, and there could be validity to that but thankfully most seem to not be saying that.

Hey I'd love another fight with your O's Jody, was nice to see my Yanks finally have to really play for once! We all know they will implode come post season anway, even if this one was extra fail.

Sorry about your Tigers Scott. Ouch

Matt Weiters,Adam Jones and JJ Hardy won Gold Gloves! Clap

Ya'll better watch out for my O's next season.

At the July trade deadline the two 2nd baseman that were most rumored to becoming to Detroit were Omar Infante and Marco Scutaro. I had no interest in Scutaro so I was quite happy when we got Infante; although not thrilled to give up our number 1 pitching prospect in the process. Infante played decent, but it looks like we got the wrong guy, and how ironic that he gets the game-winning RBI to clinch the series.

Also, avatar is now updated.

It was sooooooo cold last night. I was dressed like Randy from The Christmas Story and I was still chilled to the bone. All that I can do is tip my hat to the Giants. They were definitely the better team in this series. The Tigers' bats just never got going the entire series, and the Giants' pitchers just shut them down.

Sorry Scott...but still...

Yay Giants!

Dig me...But don't...Bury me
I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive

Congrats to the Giants!
Certainly did not expect a sweep.
