Make the hurting stop....

The Tigers continue their death spiral. As of last Tuesday, they were on a pace to finish the season with a record of 40-122.

Of course, they've lost every game since. Alan Trammell is getting fed up with the Kitties' poor play, and is threatening more lateral moves to Toledo:

"We seem to be having a little bit of a pity party," Trammell said, disgustedly. "This is something that will never be acceptable -- sloppy baseball. That's why we'll be sitting down tonight ... There could definitely be more changes."

Prediction: Alan will be on suicide watch by game 95.

All of which means that wins over the Tigers are as remarkable as, say, sunrise.

At the rate things are going, the Tigs are making a strong move to market themselves as a contraction candidate.
