DEEPER DISCUSSIONS.
Totally Tigers
Last week, Tiger players were seen laughing during a game in which infielder Kody Clemens was once again asked to pitch in a game. He struck out Shohei Ohtani with a 68 MPH pitch. The Tigers lost the game 10-0. Less than 48 hours earlier, they lost 12-2.
Clemens has now pitched 3 times in less than 7 days.
The Tigers are again on their way to another 100-loss season and 1 of MLB?s 3 worst teams.
When a team is playing that poorly, is it OK to be laughing in a game in which you are being thrashed and embarrassed? When the roster is so poorly constructed that players are being used in unusual situations?
Or is this a chance for everyone to use laughter as therapy and help relieve some of the stress?
What do you feel is appropriate?
