GAME 107 - Detroit Tigers vs. Baltimore Orioles, Monday, July 27, 2026, 6:40 PM

Every game i see you complain about how this team sucks with runners in scoring position(which they do). Tork is the one guy that has been elite this year in that and you still take shots at him. People have to get over the fact he was drafted #1 and just see him as the inconsistent solid player he is. Not many 30 homer guys on this team.
Has he? Yes, in some instances. He has been great with a runner on 2nd or a runner on 3rd (.428 and .500), and good with runners on first and third (.294). He has been bad in all the other versions of risp (1st and 2nd- .167 with 5 walks, 2nd and 3rd- .000 with 6 chances and 2 sac flies and 2 walks, bases loaded- .111 in 12 chances, with 2 base on balls). He has also done poorly with a runner on 1st (.185 in 66 chances, with 9 walks). He is a solid enough player to not make the lineup most of the time on a World Series bound team. Not the biggest problem on the team, but one that needs to improve if we are to compete.

The tigers are not really very good in the hitting department. They are very inconsistent with a lot of holes.

Ive defended Torkelson plenty of times.

We have gone over this over and over. Every poster on this board roots for him and we really need him but he has struggled in July
Not counting tonight’s game he is 13 for 73 in July (At least 5 of them are homers so that’s good. He has 13 RBIs. >>>>>Yikes 26 k’s 8bb.
.178/.256/.384/.640. It’s not good enough. But we have a few more days to get that average up in July. We really need him to be better.
 
I would still be shocked Harris trades the players he is suppose too.
My fear is we have a lot of games left in the division. Harris will probably mess the deadline up. I do not trust him.
