U.S. Oct death toll in Iraq rises to 103

Associated Press

BAGHDAD, Iraq - The U.S. military on Tuesday announced the deaths of two soldiers, raising the number of troops killed in fighting in Iraq this month to 103.

In a brief statement, the military said one Baghdad-based soldier was killed at about 5:00 p.m. Monday after being hit by small arms fire during combat in a western district of the Iraqi capital.

A second Baghdad-based soldier was killed at around 5:30 p.m. Monday when his vehicle was struck by a roadside bomb just south of the city.

The names of the soldiers were being withheld pending notification of their families.

October already is the fourth deadliest month for American troops since the war began in March 2003. The U.S. lost 107 troops in Iraq in January 2005; at least 135 in April 2004, and 137 in November 2004.

My hunch is that Guillen stays at SS and Casey is brought back to play 1st (did you see the kinda clutch hitter he was in the World Series?...Casey is also a great team mate)...To add more power I think The Tigers may go after Ramirez to play 3rd base...
