Get StartedKC and Minnie loses and we can not gain ground! This was a bad loss.
Had a chance but came up short. Not a good start by JV...bull pen sucked.

I am thinking of calling you Mr. Negativity.
How can you say Verlander didn't have a good start? He hasn't pitched in a ML game since the end of last year. Everything else has been spring training, bullpen sessions, the DL, and two starts at Toledo.
Oh I forgot, in your eyes and mind because he is making 28 Million a year he needs to throw no-hitters every start or at least a CG shutout.
not at all. I watched the game. Although he only allowed 3 hits and 2 runs he only went 5 innings and he was bailed out by his defense (Gose robbed triple and another double robbed by JD). He had very few swings and misses & poor command. The result (3 hits and 2 runs in five innings) was fine but his actual performance was not good IMO.
read my post again.....you are completely ignoring why his line was what you just posted. It's his first friggin' real game since 2014. What do you want his first game back from injury and the DL.
If Verlander is pitching like last year by September, then you have every reason to be disappointed in him. In the mean time he needs to find his command as he throws harder, and get his stamina back, where he labored after the 5 innings and 87 pitches which was in line with what they were going to cap him at, 85 to 90.
I understand all of that...I just don't think it was a good game.
