Happy Mother's Day

We'll watch the Tigers, with continuing disinterest. For one thing, it's Mother's Day, and it calls for a cookout around here. Nothing fancy. Just steaks, baked potatoes and some grilled veggies. Simple but nutritious.
But back to the Tigers: It's not the fact that they are losing, but the way they lose.
I imagine Leyland must be going crazy, and yet I do like the moves he is making. Other than playing Sh**field at all, the switch between Cabrera and Guillen is a no-brainer, despite what national media were saying yesterday.
Eric Karros was saying on yesterday's Fox broadcast that part of the Tigers' problem was they were playing many players out of position, and he mentioned Cabrera and Guillen. Then Ken Rosenthal had an in-game "feature" moments later about how Cabrera was a natural first-basemen.
Again, I just love such insight. Who produces and directs these games? It's like an Adam Sandler feature, I swear.
