Rasmus slide with Tigers commentary. They called it a good hard slide. Tigers however, ain't happy.

#Tigers angry over Colby Rasmus slide on Infante. Rasmus: “Obviously they’re going to be upset. But that’s just part of the game."

Rasmus on thoughts before AB: “If they hit me that’s part of the game, too. Take it, put some ice on it, and go about my business."

Torii Hunter on Colby Rasmus: "I thought it was a dirty slide, simple as that."
Max Scherzer on Rasmus: "We're really mad about that slide, that's a very dirty play in my book. ... I feel like he should be suspended."

Not a chance that was dirty. Good hard slide with his spikes down.

[KelVarnsen]

I fully expect Rasmus to get hit tomorrow, and/or a hard slide by the Tigers.

As a Tigers fan I didn't like the slide simply because Infante was hurt and it was a 6-0 game. I realize it's part of the game, just hate that we lost Infante as a result.

Verlander and the Tigers are getting revenge tonight the right way, by laying a beating on the Jays.

Jays struggling right now. Not a whole lot of positives coming out of the last three series.

3-8 since the 11 gamer.

Brutal.

Either red hot or ice fricken cold.

[KelVarnsen]

Ugly is the only word I have for that game.

Aside from Dickey the starting pitching has been really bad in that stretch too. They were the main reason we were winning games, they weren't dominant but they were at least going 6 or 7 full innings.

I still really really don't like JPA. He brings nothing. Bad defense, no arm, terrible plate discipline, passed balls, just abysmal. He has to be the worst every day catcher in the majors.

EDIT: Just read about his tirade regarding Hayhurst and Zaun, what a strange battle to pick. J.P. continues to unimpress.

They were getting quality starts from guys like Wang and Rogers during the big win streak. Now they aren't.

Thanked for the JPA part of your post. ^^
