I doubt he gets a chance the rest of the postseason. Leyland's been burned twice by this fool. He's going to end up pitching in mop-up, when the game's out of hand either way.

Funny thing here is that he can't get the loss or even get charged with a blown save, since it wasn't a save situation when he came in.

Hell of a graphic there:
Detroit starters - 41 IP, 5 ER, 46 K
Detroit relievers - 11 2/3 IP, 9 ER, 12 K

That's a 1.10 ERA for the starters, and a 6.94 ERA for the relievers.

I do not like Nick Swisher.

This is quickly turning into a worst-case scenario for the Yankees. Jeter just left the game with another injury and they just ran through their bullpen again. They are down 2 again, they would have been better off losing in 9.

Well, we won't be seeing Valverde next year.

All credit to the Tigers for getting up off the mat after Valverde collapsed. And a thumbs down to Swisher; he cost the Yankeees the game by missing that catchable rocket off Young's bat. As usual, he was too busy setting up his circus acrobat act...

Jeter is done for the rest of the playoffs. Damn..

He was there, maybe even past it, and didn't get his glove down. Got booed real good when he fanned in the bottom 12th. Great game to watch esp. for us. No palpitations, but still a dramatic roller coaster. I love baseball.

These playoffs have been excellent so far haven't they? I love playoffs in any sport but there is something unique about the high drama in baseball because of its slow pace relative to other sports.

Swisher is such a loser. He gifted Delmon Young two of his three hits in this game.

Too bad about Jeter. You knew something was seriously wrong. His leg was bent at an odd angle as he was helped off the field. And you know that guy doesn't stay down on the ground like that unless something bad happened.

Gonna be tough for New York to win this series with Jayson Nix at SS.

Goestogreen has gone to ****.

Anytime you get to see both a Valverde implosion AND a Yankee loss, that's a win / win in my book. Sad to Jeter go down for the rest of the post-season though.
