Kevin McGonigle after yesterday’s game is now batting .359/.432/.590 with six doubles batting 1st.

Is this good company? Kevin McGonigle is the 5th player in MLB history with 30 or more hits, 10 or more doubles and less than 15 Ks in his first 25 games at 21 or younger, and the first in 90 years when Cleveland's Roy Weatherly and New York's
Joe DiMaggio.

It's early but still.....WAR Leaders - Shortstop.

What a start for young Tigers star, Kevin McGonigle! Tiger legend and now special assistant, Alan Trammell has been a part of every step of the kid’s development and tells us on Ozzy and Keats what makes McGonigle’s “arrival”, unique. It’s available now!


Dillon Dingler is the first catcher in Tigers history to reach 19 RBI before the end of April. On top of Gold Glove-caliber defense, he leads AL catchers in RBI while ranking 3rd in OPS (.854), 3rd in SLG (.513), and 4th in OBP (.341).

Riley Greene has been one of MLB's top hitters over the last few weeks. Dating back to April 11, he ranks 2nd in batting average (.417), 2nd in OBP (.533), and 6th in OPS (1.228). As a team, we've posted a 9-3 record over that span.

Big news: DET's #3 overall pitching prospect Kelvis Salcedo has been reinstated from the IL. The RHP posted a 1.83 ERA over 18 APP (10GS) across the FCL and Single-A levels last yr, while ranking second in MiLB in BAA and WHIP.

Fudge muffins Waste a 1st and 3rd one outs.
Dingler dp.

 

[gotime909]

**** aj

 

[gotime909]

This bullpen isnt good enough to go 4+ innings. Insane not to let Valdez work through that

 

[biggunsbob]

What the hell is wrong with these guys with runners on all the bases and zero or 1 out
So far tonight.

Dingler
Baez
Carpenter

Just a fly ball is all we need. Have we missed anyone? These at bats are so bad. They all fall behind. It's ridiculous how we fail all the time.

 

[gotime909]

Here we go

 

[biggunsbob]

It's 5-3 now.

8 hits and 5 walks and all we have is 5 runs.
Tigers a pitiful 3-11 risp.
Sac Flys are to much to ask for with this group.

Offense has scored 5 runs. Ill take that every game.

I totally agree. He was pitching good enough, especially if Dingler would have challenged the two pitches that were strikes and called balls. The next pitch was a called strike and would have been strike three, but too late because the next pitch was hit for a 2 run HR. That was totally on Dingler, not Valdez. Dingler or Valdez should have challenged two other pitches also.

 

[Oldenslow]

Rain delay and I am out of there. How annoying to listen to these grown men laughing hysterically at something that is NOT remotely funny. Johnny Cane is especially annoying. Boogernose Spaghetti has annoyed me since he appeared on the scene. He loves being on camera. He just can't shut up and will blah blah about anything but the current baseball game, just showcasing his vast knowledge of everything under the sun. Laugh away guys you silly teenagers.

 

[biggunsbob]

Jesus Jack ass pitcher hit Kevin on the hand.

 

[biggunsbob]

What has happened to dingler? Does he never challenge anymore ?

 

[biggunsbob]

Bottom 7th
This pen is awful..
vest in
Walk On 4 pitches i think
Homer 5-5
Single (too 2nd)
Ground out
Strikeout
Shitty vest yanked .
Hurter in
Lazy Baez with a lazy throw. Tigers losing 6-5. (Inning should be over)
Double score is 7-5 reds.

That’s what happens when you waste scoring chances.
Tigers should have 8 runs.


Why is Baez playing 2nd ? Game should be 5-5. What a lazy throw.
Torres was the DH tonight.
Baez should never play second base again. Just because it was a bad hop make no difference it was an easy throw he rushed badly.

 

[biggunsbob]

Just get into tigers bullpen we can't hold leads.
