I hate this pen. This is ridiculous. I hate the shift sometimes.
This pen cant catch a damn break.. soft infield single.
Strikeout
0-2 count <<<<<<<< To a BB.
Pitchers best friend .
Devers. 4-6-3 DP !

Lucked out that inning. Greene is due for a big hit. Hes been so awful

 

[biggunsbob]

Why are we swinging at balls ?
Torres K’s
Dingler K’s
Greene K’s. Ball right down the middle.
Why couldn’t we get this out of Smith when we had him ?

We are terrible at small ball games.

 

[gotime909]

Smith threw 17 pitches that inning. Only 9 were strikes. All 3 tigers struck out lol

 

[tigermud]

This team is depressing

 

[biggunsbob]

Did my eyes deceive me ?

 

[biggunsbob]

Great swing by Lee 3-2 count single to RF.
Scored greene
Tork singles Lee to 3rd. Tork out at 2nd
Max Safe Fc 3-1 tigers lead.
Valencia K’s
McKinstry BB
Kevin lines out RF.

Tigers take. 3-1 lead.

 

[tigermud]

[gotime909]

Good thing SF is out of ex tiger pitchers. Good grief

 

[tigermud]

[coulomb]

F yeah!

Now lets beat some divisional ass.

 

[biggunsbob]

Holton a clean 10th inning

Tigers win 3-1 in 10 innings !

 

[biggunsbob]

7-2 west coast trip !

We even won a 3-1 game !

I am so glad we did not blow Meltons start. He was fabulous.

 

[gotime909]

1 game back of the wildcard

 

[biggunsbob]

Foley
Holy crap i didnt even realize it .

 

[coulomb]

Tigers jump from 4th place to 2nd.

Was getting tired of 4th place, they have been there for 3 months.

I can't stand MLB anymore. My son has MLB.com and Disney+ so we figured we could have a cookout and watch the Tigers. Nope! ESPN unlimited today. Couldn't watch the game.

Now its painful to think of "what if"

what if they didnt trade skubal/mize the rotation would be:

Skubal
Melton
Mize
Jobe
Valdez

with Montero/Flaherty/Verlander standing by, or pen duty..

Cant sayit would be bad.

they still did the right thing

 

[coulomb]

they still did the right thing

I know they did, but cmon, that rotation could almost rival the

verlander/sherzer/price/sanchez/porcello rotation of 2014.
