Tigers sweep the Whitesux

Been a while since I actually cared about this team. Certainly they have disappointed nearly everyone up until this point. Finally they take it to a team they NEEDED to beat. The Tigers finished up a sweep of the division leading White Sox tonight in clutch fashion when Miguel Cabrera hit a walkoff home run. Another stellar outing from Kenny Rogers went unrewarded with a win, however, but nobody can complain about a win.

Speaking of Kenny Rogers... He has been stellar over his last 4 starts. Going at least 7 innings in all 4, and allowing only 4 ERs over the stretch. He has not gotten a decision in any of those games.

Considering the loss of Bondo, the demotion of Dontrelle Willis to Single A ball, the starters have really been pulling their weight lately. Even though you thought the books would be out on Armando by now, he has still held his own in the rotation. The hitters on the other hand? Same old crap. Explode for a day and go back to minor league talent the next. Placido Polanco though is on a real tear with about 4512414 hits in the last couple weeks.

Can they please turn this around now?
