Your Detroit Tigers were out and about on Sunday for what
was game 4 of the World Series. This was probably the best game that
they had out of the 4 they played against the Giants. Now listen up. I am not
one for bashing any hometown heroes, but I am going to bring it up because you
probably were thinking it last night and throughout the entire World Series. Where was
Prince Fielder? Last time I checked, he doesn't get paid by the strikeout. The
guy is one of the highest paid players in the MLB and you, me, and the rest of
the Tigers players and staff, had to be thinking the same thing. He just didn't
show up at all in the games. As a matter of fact, check out his stats as
provided by ESPN.com below.
As always you are going to have someone who points
the finger at another player and goes to blame the loss on them instead. As
this may be the case, Fielder seemed to stand out the most as the one to put
the majority of the blame on. If you are still undecided at this point, you can
form your own opinions on who
is to blame by clicking on that link.
On a more positive note, I would like to thank the Detroit
Tigers for a great season overall. They made a hell of a run to even make the playoffs,
let alone make it to the World Series. Sweeping the Yankees is no easy task,
regardless of how A-Rod and Granderson were playing and the injury that Jeter
suffered as well was just icing on the cake. So raise your glass and tip your hats to your Detroit Tigers
on a well-played season! Bless you boys.

I was utterly disappointed with not only being SWEPT in the series, but the performance of some of our best players. Verlander suddenly reverted from cy young winner, to all star game loser, and prince might as well have stayed at home.
ReplyDeleteWhile I'm proud of the boys for having such a great season and making it all the way to the series, what good is it really to not even put up a fight? League pennants in baseball mean as much as conference championsips in basketball, nothing.
Wow, I couldn't have said it better myself. Did you check out the article I included in the post? I thought it was pretty interesting. Thanks for the comment!
