The Knee Jerks - Eno and Big Al - Lions cardiac cats, Tigers slashing payroll

Approyo

During The Knee Jerks' last show, they discussed Detorit Tigers' GM Al Alvila's "Changes are comin'" press conference. This week, the guys give their takes on the first of those changes, the trade of starting center fielder Cameron Maybin in what appears to be a pure cost cutting measure. Eno and Big Al discuss the fallout, invcluding who may end up as Maybin's replacement, which Tiger could be next to go, and reports the Tigers will focus more on advanced metrics. The Jerks also cover the latest Detroit Lions victory, rallying from behind to knock off the Minnesota Vikings in OT, much in thanks to more 4th quarter heroics from QB Matthew Stafford. Eno and Big Al also play The Birthday Game and name their Jerk of the Week! Long-time Detroit sports bloggers and podcasters, Greg Eno (aka the man who knows a lot of things about a lot of things), and Big Al Beaton are The Knee Jerks! Eno and Big Al's podcast archive can be found the Sports Geeks Radio Network.
