It's so annoying when every other guy is retired very early in counts when the guy just before him worked the counts or took 4 pitch walks then the next guy swings at the first pitch inning over. The Braves have a top notch starting rotation they should have an overriding goal to make him throw as many pitches as possible and get him out of the game as early as they can but NOPE! Braves already making solid contact again today. The tigers are just not good enough and since we're in such a weak DIV they'll end up getting absolution nothing for Skubal and no WS. lose/lose.
 
FV gets out of a two out jam with runners on 2nd and 3rd.
Nice change up for the k.
 
Torres .234
Tork .216
Carp .220
Vierling .190
Rogers .148

That's more than half the lineup full of not good enoughs. Not going to win a lot of games with that kinda inefficiency.
 
It feels like a long day for tiger hitters…..I hope I’m wrong.
 
So this jackass hits a batter on a 1-2 count.
Then gives up a damn 0-2 count hit.
Valdez in trouble again.
Next guy F-7.
Single trail 1-0. Right down the middle
Valdez gets Acuna and Baldwin to strikeout
Keeping score at 1-0.


Every team they can should sacrifice with runners on 1st and 2nd against us. Because chances are our pitchers will throw it away.

Braves having no issues at all timing up our soft tossing lefty this game will be up a blow out by the Braves. 15-17 very unimpressed.
 
Rogers is batting .143.
Again why does he have a roster spot ?
Nido hit the ball better when rogers was hurt last year.
 
Tigers 3rd

Rogers K’s
Kevin M. BB
Torres singles
Keith sigh 3-1 Two outs
Greene. k’s

Tigers 2 more lobs
 
Lots of base runners, lots of full counts, nothing to show for it. The only guy you have any confidence in at all to come through in a clutch is a 21 year old rookie. sad.

The Tigers are Anti-Clutch.
 
Tigers 4th
Tork singles
Carpenter check swing 5-3.
Vierling F-9. Warning track
Lee F-9. On a line


Last two batters see 4 pitches



Same old crap with these platoon hitters .
Just warning track power.
 
Finally get some decent contact with RISP but can't get anything by Acuna. it's all just a lost cause.

Torres and Tork have excellent on base percentage. I wouldnt group them with the other 3.

Yeah true but is any hitter really doing well with runners on base ?
Few and far between getting runners in with this club.
