Max

Max was really good for the Tigers last night again.  Scherzer was awesome again last night and now stands at 10-0 on the season.  If not for Papa Grande he would be 11-0.  after 6 innings last night Drew Smyly came in and shut the door with 9 up and 9 down 3 innings of no hit ball.  What a find Smyly has been in the bullpen.  Time will tell if it continues. 

Miggy hits a bomb on the first pitch he sees after returning home from the road.  He now has 71 RBIs on the season.  AJax is also a welcome back addition to the lineup because of his return to spur the offense and he was 3-4 and is 7 for 17 since his return last Friday night in Minnesota.

Avila to the DL is a blessing in disguise I do believe.  This allows the Tigers to send Alex on a "rehab" assignment to Toledo without disgracing him with a demotion to Toledo.  We will see if Bull Durham can work some magic with Alex.

5 games up on June 17th...can't be that!  GO TIGERS!
