[Mitchrapp]

I guess Baddoo was called up.

 

[gotime909]

For fucks sake skubal. These fucks just can't let us enjoy an easy win

 

[gotime909]

I guess Baddoo was called up.

Probably just until Manning comes up Monday.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Those were the first pitches I didn't like called by the ump. Both were high.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Oppo for Carp.

 

[biggunsbob]

Boom stick to LF. KC !

 

[gotime909]

Not wise to throw 3 straight fastballs to Carp lol

 

[Mitchrapp]

Keith been hitting today.

 

[gotime909]

Colt is looking much more comfortable at the plate lately

 

[gotime909]

Hahahahahaha altuve just struck out on a fastball over his head

 

[Mitchrapp]

Hahahahahaha altuve just struck out on a fastball over his head

I'm 6'5" and that would have been over my head.

 

[gotime909]

Even tho we don't have any errors, the defense isn't really helping Skubal

 

[jas5lf]

Looks like Skubal may be our lone all-star this season.

*Placed RHP Kenta Maeda on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to May 8, with a viral illness.
Baddoo is recalled for Maeda..Manning will be recalled to start on Monday a corresponding move will be made on that day to make room..

Hmmm, either there is something in the works given the Tigers' recent slide in win-loss column or that virus that hit the Tigers hard is now in Toledo.
Matt Manning, Jace Jung and Akil Baddoo all scratched from Mud Hens starting lineup tonight.

simple facts..managers leverage matchups to put players in the best odds to succeed..thats the job..the results ..are less than 100%..fans then ignorantly WHINE when it doesn't work because they think they're smarter....newsflash..you aren't..players need to perform.

Oh Shelby..

 

[gotime909]

Shelby miller sucks. Get him out now

 

[gotime909]

McKinstry with the worst throw to first I've even seen. Tork is so underrated defensively

 

[Mitchrapp]

Thank goodness..

 

[Mitchrapp]

McKinstry with the worst throw to first I've even seen. Tork is so underrated defensively

Except that -5 DRS.

 

[gotime909]

Except that -5 DRS.

95% of his plays are receiving throws and he's got some horrible throwing infielders. He's a plus scooper. Defensive metrics are so flawed.
