Lord Byron,
What mojo? I am merely having good thoughts for the Tigers and for the Indians' opponents.

[Although..., I have been sacrificing chipmunks and red squirrels to Orion so that the Tigers may win each series and the Indians' opponents may split each series.]

Granderson is one stolen base away from his 20th, which would put him in company with just Mays and Schulte." - usatoday.com *

*Actually: 36-2B; 21-3B; 20 hr
Granderson singled and stole #20 in the first inning on Sunday.

Careful, I believe that the order rodentia is a sensitive topic in these parts.

Opening weekend in the NFL and the Seahawks beat the Lions, 14-7.

Well, it sure looks like a football score. . .

Unhappy
Bad day for my home town of Chicago. The White Sox, the Cubs and Da Bears all lost.

I guess it's a good thing the Bulls and the Blackhawks didn't play.

Elbow problems, Mick. Bonderman could be done for the year.

Arrogance of youth !
He knew he was hurt, but figured he could help the team better than one of his healthy teammates could help.

Fox Sports reported he is suffering from Mickey Mantle syndrome. Too much elbow bending at the bar.

Jays at Tigers 4-1 bottom 9th
Tigers get a hit and Jays SS [McDonald] starts a *Sport Center* blow-your-socks-off DP.
2 outs.
Tigers score 4 with two out.

Yeah, I watched it unfold on MLB.com.

Fortunately, the Tribe came back after rain and spanked the hapless Sox.

13!

Hey, I'm back! (Here's a preemptive "shut up" for JR.) I've been in Orlando for most of the last week with my dad and haven't been able to check in regularly. Sox lost last night in a well-pitched game. How do we lose a 1-0 pitchers' duel to Tampa Bay??!?!

Sox still have the best record in baseball, but they now have the smallest division lead in the AL. Yankees are only 5 games back, after both teams went 7-3 in their last 10. They meet up for a weekend series starting Friday, which I think wraps up the regular season series for them. Dice-K, Beckett and Schill for the Sox; Pettitte, Wang, and Hughes for the Evil Empire.

Sox only have 17 games left and 5 of those are against Tampa Bay. Yankees have 3 against Tampa Bay, but 6 against the O's.
