Well, RSN did its job. Now if the weather will just cooperate. -

Interesting. CC is batting 6th and J.D. 8th. Makes sense, but is still surprising. -

hey Joel, what's doin?...i saw this weather piece about Motown tonight...Here's what's coming at Motown tonight
By Peter Abraham, Globe Staff
DETROIT — As the radar map from Weather.com shows, we've got some major bad weather coming this way.
There's a tornado watch for this area and the tarp is already on the field weighed down by 11 tractors of varied sizes.
We will keep you posted as to the status of the game. -

Yup - Drew batting 8th behind CC AND Sutton and only ahead of Tek.....I guess it's OK to have a 14 million dollar per year man bat 8th but 20 million is too much....What is the rule of thumb here? 17 and half??? I know I am no Theo Esptein but I thought his OBP and OPS guys were meant to bat higher than 8th? Oh well, that's what he gets paid the bucks for!!!!!!!! Give them all huge raises and pass it along to the fans! -

Look for a long rain delay. Detroit radar shows big mass of rain over Eastern Michigan. Radar futurcast shows it probably won't clear 'til after 9pm. Darn! -

So when Drew is gone next year will you still be ragging on him or can we look forward to your letting it go?
And BTW, how do you like your Red Sox now or are you still holding off recognizing this team as the real deal? -

I can live with that. I worked hard in the yard today and deserve a game two as my just desserts. -

Drew's in the 5th year of his contract, of course he's had a decline. -

Anyone got this game on DirecTV? It is not allowing me to watch it on NESN and isn't on one of the Extra Innings channels.

I hope Beckett calms down after this, we may need it with Verlander on the mound. -
