They play the Royals but you show the Twins. With that being said the Royals starter is absolute trash. ERA near 7 and 0-11.

I was in the middle of editing the post. :shrug: I wanted to get it on the books. It's all correct now.

It?s Jordan Lyles 15th start of the season today.
The Royals are 0-14 in his starts.

Torkelson has a 1.016 OPS in his last 10 games.

The Tigers are hitting .280 (99-for-353) with 17 home runs over their past 10 games, an average of 9.9 hits and 1.7 home runs per game.
In the first six games of June, the Tigers hit .124 (23-for-186) with two home runs, an average of 3.8 hits and 0.3 homers per game.

Andy Ibanez in June
361/425/666

Kerry Carpenter since returning from injury:
.400 batting average
.948 OPS
He has gotten at least one hit in 7 out of the 10 games he?s played, with four multi-hit games as well.

For all the rough stretches, the Tigers are 12-8 against the AL Central. With six more division games coming at Comerica Park -- three against the last-place Royals, followed by three more against these Twins -- the Tigers have a chance to build on this momentum and chip away at their deficit.
They could get reliever Beau Brieske back from the injured list next week, and will likely get rehabbing starters Tarik Skubal and Matt Manning back within the next few weeks, letting their bullpen get back to standard operations after a heavy workload over the past several days.

So this 0-11 last 14 starts pitcher has turned into Cy young sgainst the Tigers.

 

[biggunsbob]

Tigers trail 1-0. Solo homer given up by Olson.

 

[tomdalton22]

another HR. 3-0

 

[biggunsbob]

Olson sucks. Trail 3-0.

 

[tomdalton22]

Olson sucks. Trail 3-0.

he fits right in...almost every player on the team sucks

 

[biggunsbob]

Pretty ridiculous we can't hit this stiff.

 

[biggunsbob]

97.1 yapped all day about the Tigers. Figures they would come out flat sgainst this stiff. I've seen enough of Olson.. short with a terrible throw makes it 4-0. Awful.

 

[biggunsbob]

Miss played by by kc left fielder gets tigers on the board 4-1. Then next batter pops out on first dang pitch.

 

[biggunsbob]

Tigers need some runs. Good thing Maton bats 3rd this half inning.
Maybe he will hit his June homer.

 

[biggunsbob]

Terrible at bats in the 6th by the Tigers.

 

[biggunsbob]

Miggy 3118 hit to right to lead off the 7th.

 

[biggunsbob]

Schoop is another hitter who needs to be left go. It's a miracle if he can get on base.

Hey a double.

Runners on 2nd and 3rd no outs !

 

[biggunsbob]

Roger's 2 run single 4-3 !

 

[biggunsbob]

Freaking short swings at first damn pitch pops out.

 

[biggunsbob]

To close to take Spencer

 

[biggunsbob]

Kaboom !
