In the two games the Tigers have lost this series, Detroit has managed just two runs total.
Tigers fans are feeling pretty good about their team right now.
Justin Verlander (10-10) allowed two runs and five hits in seven innings, walking one and fanning five.
So as mad as I still remain about the Fister trade, I thought it would be good therapy to take a look at all the players that DD dealt away and how most of them have failed to succeed.
Last night in the 10th inning of the Tigers vs Yankees game, Joba Chamberlain plunked his former teammate, Derek Jeter on the left elbow with a 93mph fastball.
Avila does have some power. His 162-game average as a major league player over 5-plus seasons is 16 home runs.
"I'm happy it's over and I'm happy we won," David Price said after the Tigers beat the Yankees, 4-3. "I finally feel a part of the team."
David Price struck out 10 in his Detroit debut and was long gone when Alex Avila homered in the 12th inning to lift the Tigers over the New York Yankees 4-3 Tuesday night.
Who is your No. 1?
It's a far cry from the last thing we saw out of the Florida media about Price, when the FOX affiliate there Tweeted something nasty about the local scene.
The Detroit Tigers have signed reliever Jim Johnson to a minor-league contract, according to Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports.
The 23-year-old Turner, whom the Tigers drafted 9th overall in 2009, had a 5.97 ERA as of Monday, when the move was announced.
Even future hall-of-famer Derek Jeter was shown on TV saying, "wow."
It definitely gives credence to the idea she's a distraction for the ace, who isn't exactly having his best season.
As well as Price has thrown the ball lately, some have pointed to his relative mediocrity in the playoffs as a downside.
