Tigers medical update.
A.J. Hinch on Tommy Kahnle's struggles: "He doesn’t get to pitch for free. The situation is going to dictate whether the innings are there for him. We try to get him in as low-leverage or low-pressure situations as possible so he can work on things...But we’ve got to compete on the field. This is not practice."
Since July 2. Kahnle stats: 15G, 1-3 W-L, 11 IP, 20 ER, 21 H, 13 walks, 8 K 16.36 era,
3.09 WHIP thats definitely DFA material.
Why haven’t the Tigers put Kahnle on a the fake IL for two weeks. He’s already thrown the most innings in a season since 2017 and we still have 8 weeks to go and playoffs. He’s 36 years old.
Kahnle last 16 outings 13.2 IP 25 H 22 runs.
3 things the T
igers did at their best as AJ Hinch cornerstones.
1. play clean...solid defense solid baserunning.
2. quality relief pitching.
3. Exploit mistakes.
That baseball has been missing for 65 games. Their POBO made zero effort to add pieces to recapture.
Important missing pieces by injury of self implosion: Parker Meadows, Matt Vierling, Jason Foley, Beau Brieske, Sean Guenther.
How many garbage day pickups have been picked up, and how many have provided any useful outings. The smartest guy in the room is always the last guy to know..he isn't really smart about everything.

Over the past decade, playoff teams have accumulated a benchmark of just over 33.0 WAR. The Detroit Tigers need to up their numbers.
The Tigers are 7-17 in games started by Jack Flaherty. From the fifth inning on, Flaherty has a 6.97 ERA. The Tigers are scoring just 2.8 runs per game in his starts. Not exactly a winning formula.
We might see Alex Lange soon. Threw really well last night for Toledo and has put together multiple solid outings.
The Tigers promoted their No. 10 prospect and potential major league third baseman Max Anderson to Triple-A.
