You might notice that Millar is playing and Snider isn't. No I don't understand in the least what is going on with Cito. Bautista plays, Snider doesn't, Millar plays, Snider doesn't. And they wonder why no one is coming to the games.

Hill's back.

Title is from Gordon Lightfoot's "Black Day in July", the only song about Detroit that I could think of in short notice. Unlike most of Lightfoot's music, that one hasn't aged well.
