Make it a trend

Where have you gone, Andy Van Slyke? — Wandy Rodriguez is starting against Yovani Gallardo tonight. Gallardo is a righty, but Brandon Inge is starting at third base anyway. This is unacceptable. John McDonald is on the disabled list with a severe case of the olds, so Jordy Mercer is starting at shorstop.  First pitch tonight is at 7:05.

Brandon Inge's first two weeks (or: where is Travis Snider?)

Where have you gone, Andy Van Slyke? — Couldn't watch yesterday's game due to blackout, so I'm not going to write anything up. Looked ugly. Instead, let's talk about something else.  When the Pirates signed Brandon Inge this winter, the idea was that he'd essentially take Josh Harrison's role on the club; pinch-hitter, utility infielder, maybe spell Pedro Alvarez against tough lefties, etc. I wasn't particularly happy with the signing, but there are worse 25th men in the league than Brandon Inge and as it stands, getting upset over the 25th man on the roster is generally a futile thing to do. Brandon Inge came back from the dis...

GIF of the Day: Brandon Inge fan catches foul ball, parties like it's 2006

Bless You Boys — Prince Fielder fouled off a pitch in the top of the 12th inning of tonight's game. No big deal, right? Wrong. The ball takes a fortuitous bounce to a Tigers fan who raises his new trophy for all to see. However, that wasn't all for our friend, who proudly sported his Brandon Inge shirsey and rally cap in hopes of bringing the Tigers some winning magic. The fist bump with the Astros usher was a nice touch, but the rest of the celebration might have been a bit over the top. And here's a guy catching a foul ball with a baby in his arms. I leave it to you, readers: which one is more im...
