Bless You Boys Podcast 7 is on the air!  Actually, it's only available on the airwaves if you throw your MP3 player in the air. But the BYB Podcast is live on the interwebs for your listening pleasure.

This week's roundtable includes editors Al Beaton, Kurt Mensching and Allison Hagen, who discuss the past week of Detroit Tigers baseball.

Topics discussed this week include:

• Road trip woes.
• Brandon Inge and Ryan Perry recalled.
• The return of Brad Thomas is imminent.
• Justin Verlander is unlikely to pitch in the All Star Game due to his pitching schedule.
• What's with Max Scherzer?
• Jim Leyland's lineups during road interleague play and his lame duck contract status.
• Tigers' prospects Jacob Turner and Francisco Martinez picked to play in the All-Star Futures Game.
• Twins have won 15 of 18, the White Sox are only 4.5 games out of first and the Indians aren't going away.
• National League style baseball, to put it bluntly, blows.
• Kurt Gibson and Alan Trammell return with the Diamondbacks for a weekend series.

We also answer several questions from the Bless You Boys community. We LOVE to hear from you. So remember, if you would like to have your question on next week's podcast, please email us at BYBPodcast at Gmail.com.

It's Bless You Boys Podcast number 6...well, actually 7, if you count the show we lost to the podcast recording Gods on Thursday! But since we're only counting "released" podcasts...6 it is!

This week's roundtable includes editors Al Beaton, Kurt Mensching and David Tokarz,  who discuss the past week of Detroit Tigers baseball. (Matt Watson and Allison Hagen had other commitments...though Allison did participate in the infamous lost show!)

Topics covered in episode six include:

RIP Jim Northrup.

Tigers in 1st place!

Justin Verlander is good.

Who should be the Tigers' 3rd sacker against the NL?

Alex Avila is an All-Star, and other Tigers who shoulder get serious consideration.

Anyone encouraged by Magglio Ordonez's performance since his return from the DL?

Max Scherzer has nine victories, but his peripherals have been lacking. Are wins overrated?

Brandon Inge vs. mono.

Joe Maddon was screwed by a call, and now wants replay!

MLB realignment, will it ever happen?

It's the 5th Bless You Boys Podcast! This week's roundtable includes editors Al Beaton, Kurt Mensching, Matt Watson, Allison Hagen and David Tokarz, who discuss the past week of Detroit Tigers baseball.

Topics covered in episode four include:

The editors (minus Kurt, who HATES draft talk) discuss the MLB draft and the Tigers' top pick James McCann, a catcher out of the University of Arkansas.
Are there other draft picks fans should keep an eye on? (Kurt is still recused at this point, hanging out on Twitter)
Brennan Boesch is smoking hot, and Andy Dirks and Casper Wells aren't playing too badly either! (Kurt's back!)
Magglio Ordonez elects to stay in Toledo for a few more days, but who will go down when he does return to Detroit?
Brandon Inge has the kissing disease, Don Kelly and Danny Worth don't.
The Tigers are out of compliance with MLB rules regarding debt limits, should fans (and Mike Ilitch's kids) be worried?

As has quickly become our standard practice, the editors also answer several listener questions. Remember, if you would like to have your question on next week's podcast, please email us at BYBPodcast at Gmail.com.

Final thoughts: David wants the Tigers to think outside the box, Matt despises all things Cleveland, Allison is bummed she's not at the Rangers - Tigers game, Kurt fills in the blanks, and Al tells Gene Lamont to "Stop it! Just stop it!"

Topics covered in episode four include:

The Scott Sizemore/David Purcey trade: Why? Thoughts - Good, bad, indifferent?
The roster fallout from the trade – Ryan Perry, Adam Wilk down, Danny Worth, Andy Oliver up: Who'll be back, who's here for good, and just what has happened to Perry?
The Ryan Raburn “situation”: And it's definitely a situation. But what to do with him?
CBS Sports rakes the Tigers over the coals in their power rankings: It's funny 'cause it's true!
ESPN drafts franchise players 1-30, Verlander drafted 16th, Cabrera gets snubbed: HUH? Seriously? Snubbed?
