I realized that I never answered this question: Brad Havens (L) and Dan Schatzeder (R). Havens is the only player from my HS (Royal Oak Kimball) to play in the major leagues. Schatzeder was traded one-for-one in the deal that moved Ron LeFlore to Montreal. Sparky wanted no part of LeFlore, and he knew that LeFlore was going to want a large increase in salary in 1980.

It the Tigers don't light up this pitcher like a dry Christmas tree, I got nothin'.

 

[tigermud]

Should light this guy up but flaherty will probably get lit up too. I have zero confidence in flaherty.

Twins 12-8. It’s somewhat nice out today can’t stay indoors to watch this shit team.

 

[biggunsbob]

Greene and Carpenter blow so far this year.


Greene k's (He fails to move runners over)
Carpenter K's
Tork deep fly out.
My God this team can't hit with runners on.

This pitcher for the twins has been bad. If we can't hit him that doesn't bode well for Detroit.

 

[biggunsbob]

Lol
Jack already in trouble.
He gets the double play he needed.

 

[biggunsbob]

Lmao
2 innings in a row this clown team gets 1st two runners on fails to even move runners over.
My God have Meadows try and get a bunt single. Something to move runs over.
Already 4 strikeouts for tiger hitters.

 

[biggunsbob]

Walks a hitter hitting 3 for 21.

 

[gotime909]

This is embarrassing

 

[biggunsbob]

Frustrating.

 

[biggunsbob]

Just a matter of time before jack caves in probably.

 

[biggunsbob]

More Lobs for Detroit.

 

[biggunsbob]

What's probably funny is we will trade, cut or lose guys to other clubs and they will leave and become better hitters after leaving Detroit with our luck. I hope not but this is getting bad..
we can't hit With anyone on. We have ro shake things up.
Somehow.

 

[biggunsbob]

Can't throw Bell that pitch.
Trail 1-0.
Listening to Dickerson. He hates the new challenge system.

 

[coulomb]

Hopefully these guys swallow the fact that they just got swept by a team in total rebuild mode, I cant think of anything else positive from this series.

 

[gotime909]

Trade skubal yesterday

 

[biggunsbob]

Marlins are really hitting on offense. With our bats next series may get ugly to.

 

[biggunsbob]

Tigers fail again with a runner on 2nd base.
5 times in 6 freaking innings tigers strand a runner on 2nd base..

 

[kalinecountry]

Guess who is tied for 29th in HR? our Tigers with 7..SEVEN damn HR.
Dingler has 2 Kerry has 2 and the rest of the team has 3.

Riley Greene has refused to use his ABS on high ball fours back to back nights Hadn’t attempted a challenge this year.

This team gets zero breaks. It’s like every team plays the tigers hitters perfect in the outfield.
