Where is the offense?

The Tigers just lost their third game in a row, 4-2, in Cleveland. The Indians did not play that great, but they outplayed the visitors. A rookie, Jeremy Sowers shut the offense down. Yesterday was ugly against the White Sox' Jon Garland, and the day before Freddie Garcia looked incredible against the Tigers. Bonderman gave up a lead for the second straight start.

These guys look exhausted, wore out, and disinterested in playing right now. It's almost like the Texas Rangers series last week-end took its toll on the Detroiters. Right now, they're not looking good, but they are still 4-1/2 games up in the American League Central Division.

Let's hope that the rest of the week-end goes well because it will not be easy in the Bronx next week!
