Buster Posey absolutely killed a ball today. Hit the fucking scoreboard. Which is solid 40 FT above the 400' centerfield wall.

Destroyed it.

Also, MELKY made a ridiculous throw to nail a tagging up runner at home plate. If Melky doesn't have the best arm in baseball, I'd like to see the OF with a better one. He's got a cannon.

I went to a few games at Tropicana a few years ago. That thing is so ridiculously low that I felt like I could reach up and do pull-ups on it.

Other than that, I really like Tropicana Field. It's a nice small ballpark inside of a neat little dome, real cozy like. Would be nice to see them fill that place up daily with how good they play, and they've been playing well for years now so there's no excuse for that place not to be packed.

Ya it's a design flaw that really can't be rectified because all the cables holding up the roof are attached to the catwalk. Someone obviously wasn't thinking when it was designed. At least it doesn't happen all the time.

Really if the answer isn't Alexei Ramirez, it's wrong.

Alexei almost falls down when he fouls balls out of play. Shit cracks me up. How this man has ever hit a home run is beyond me.

Francouer/Choo/Ichiro all still have great arms.

And the Tigers offense is fucking pathetic. 2 straight innings they leave the bases loaded and now the Indians will take the lead this inning and win the game. So damn frustrating.

It's gonna click at some point PP. Fortunately you're in the Central and can get away with sucking for now. Cleveland and the Chisox aren't that good. They're not terrible, but they aren't taking advantage of Detroit's struggles.

Watching Cubs/Astros. Cubs gave up two runs when two Cubs collided breaking up what would've been the third out. It's a microcosm of the Cubs for sure. You see disaster coming and can only cringe as it the inevitable occurs.

Francour has the best arm from the outfield in baseball currently, imo.

Fucking saw this coming a mile away. Don't even wanna watch this team with as underachieving as they are.
