THE DETROIT TIGERS HAVE LOST 20 GAMES WHEN LEADING IN THE 7th INNING OR LATER!!
Over 1/4 of Tigers losses this year they were leading in the 7th inning or later.
Fire Harris.

Manager-Adjusted Wins per 162 Rankings.(estimates manager impact using situation-adjusted pinch-hit WPA, bullpen-change WPA, “leave the pitcher in” danger-spot WPA, late-game conversion, challenge success, lineup adjustments, & defensive adjustments). Look at where Hinch is!!!

Even Dillon Dingler's horrible slump probably won't stop him from securing Tigers Silver Slugger

Dillon Dingler is the clear frontrunner for a Silver Slugger, if he can just finish this Tigers season strong.

Even Dillon Dingler's horrible slump probably won't stop him from securing Tigers Silver Slugger.
Come on, Ding.

The Tigers had leads in both ends of a doubleheader. They lost both games in walk-off fashion. The lapses bring up a hard truth: The Tigers have given about $128.75M to FA pitchers over the past two years. Those players have combined for only 4.8 fWAR.

Why Tigers should already be considering this change for Eduardo Valencia in 2027

Eduardo Valencia's bat might be for real, but how are the Tigers going to get him more reps?

Greene finally hits his first HR in what seems like absolutely forever

AJ’s follies with a 1-0 lead that will probably hold up for only 2 mins

 

[tigermud]

Greene responsible for all 4 runs tonight this far, couple of lousy solos while dingler continues to chase pitches below the knees and miss it’s painful watching him struggle so badly.

 

[tigermud]

Tigers win 6-0 and…

Nobody cares

20- 1 is still alive !

Michigan offense stinks !

65-77 might go 19-1, but IDK if 84 wins can make the playoffs. At somepoint you would have to win 10+ games in a row, unless you win the next 9 then lose 1
