Every time I think the wheels are going to fall off for the Tigers, they go out and smack people around and win a bunch of games.I was worried with Rogers pitching poorly and Verlander's arm being "tired," but why? As my Aussie friends say: No worries, mate. If the pitching goes a little soft, the hitting carries them. If the hitting is off, the pitching is on. It's amazing how this season has played out. When Pudge hit his walkoff the other night, I felt that was the final sign that this is the year of the cat.
Now some stats: Craig Monroe is .400-6-18 over his last 18 with 1.184 OPS. Todd Jones has given up 2 ER in his 19 appearances since June 16. He's 1-0 with 14 saves during that time.
