The thing is Jason Grilli was kind of right about what he said. This team isn't the same team that made it to the World Series in 2006. There has to be something seriously wrong in the clubhouse when one of the best teams in baseball (on paper) has such a terrible record. Leyland most likely will not be back here next year.

I agree. I think Leyland is just too easy and players just don't respond to him anymore; and some of his decisions go against all logic such as continually batting Gary Sheffield in the number three spot.

On paper the Tigers should be in first place IMO.

I saw them play the Jays in April, they split the 2 games I saw... both teams are under achieving... was a crappy set of games to see live. So much talent being wasted thus far.

Haha best part, the hotel I was staying at was 99% Tiger fans for the weekend series in TO... good ppl though, never hassled me too bad... one time i went in an elevator with my Jays jersey on and there was probably 15 Tiger fans in it with me... was a long elevator ride lol

I checked them out last night for about 10 minutes which was about all i could stand while they were giving the celtics 0 credit for beating the pistons. Christ i thought weei was loaded with homers but this station takes the cake on that one, though i realize the night shows mostly have the retards on them in which case was true to form with this station.

Every local radio station is full of homers.

What about a national TV network like ESPN playing favorites? Because they certainly do.

As a patriots fan and espn's constant witch hunt over nothing with spygate, yes i understand this.

And like i said I'm sure the guys on during the day actually know what they are talking about, but those two last night brought new meaning to the word clueless!

He is to busy playing the race card, absolutely pathetic if you ask me. Yeah Herm Edwards did nothing but lose year after year mainly because of dumb coaching decisions. And it was absolutely laughable that he even dared to bring up Thomas in New York, the guy has ruined everything he has put his hands on for the last 10-15 years with also embarrassing the franchise with a lawsuit!

Willie no one gives a crap about your woe is me I'm black and discriminated against garbage, you suck as a manager, have one of the highest payrolls in baseball and constantly you do not deliver, go coach the royals if you want the big bad media to not question your decisions!
