For the benefit of Mister I
The Tiges will give another try
At a Series ring
In the race four times before
Then they’re always shown the door
Damn, it stings
.    But with Cabrera and two Martinez
.    The hits should still be raining in Motown
.    If God wills, Alex Avila doesn’t get hurt
Yeah, Max Scherzer hit the road
The Nationals can bear that load
(He will be missed)
David Price might have the stuff
But does the bullpen have enough?
Let’s check the list:
.    Phil Coke is gone, and Rick Porcello,
.    Which leaves Soria, Albuquerque and Nathan
.    Climbing higher? Dumpster fire? Who the hell knows?
Castellanos will be there
We’ll marvel at Cespedes’ flair
In center field
Ian Kinsler leaps and spins
Let’s hope Iglesias’ pins
Have really healed
.    Twisting the government ’round his fingers
.    Is not enough for Detroit’s pizza king
.    Which is why Mister I keeps spending his dough….
