Tiger Geist

Espn magazine had a fantastic article about Greg Maddux this week.  Normally I think espn mag is a turd of journalism, but this article is well worth the trouble.  I’ve always been a Maddux fan, but this helps show the genius behind the man.

Oh, the Tigers?  I’m almost speechless.  I think the weather sucks and they are getting killed by it.  I think most of the players should be ashamed to pick up their paycheck this month.  I also think all of their big contracts and veteran players have given them some roster inflexibility to bring in some hot bats.  Raburn gets his first two at-bats and responds with a hit and a walk, but there is no guarantee he’ll still be with the team next week.
