Never mind my message . I just went ahead and deleted the one I made.I wasn’t sure if you were available.

Btw this is not a very good lineup.

 

[kalinecountry]

In 45 games Spencer Torkelson has:
The GOOD 2 Walk-offs 5 Homers in 5 Days 5 Multi-hit Games.
The BAD 5 Strikeout Hat Tricks 21 Hitless Games.

 

[biggunsbob]

Does Harris even watch this putrid offense ?

Crazy. I fear he will leave Detroit and get better hitting instruction elsewhere.

 

[biggunsbob]

McKinstry is batting .183.
Perez is batting .165
Rogers is batting .151

Why the hell are any of these guys on the tigers ?
Plus Jones, and Short

What Happened to Lee ? Or was it just a pinch hit.

 

[biggunsbob]

Even Kevin struggles with slow stuff sadly.
8 tiger strikeouts in 5 innings.

 

[biggunsbob]

Nice running catch by Greene in foul territory.

 

[biggunsbob]

Nice clean inning for Mize in the 6th.

 

[biggunsbob]

Kaboom ! Matt Vierling runs into one .
Line drive homer 364 feet.
1 -0 Tigers

 

[lonesometiger]

come on offense get with it!

 

[biggunsbob]

I know Mize is coming off an injury but he is only at 71 pitches.
Most really stress free. Why not give him another inning.

On cue oKyle gives up the tying homer on first pitch.
1-1.. My god his first Career homer.

This offense just likes to waste great starts.
I can’t stand this pen.

Then he gives up a damn 2 out walk.

Inning over tie game. F-off Kyle.

You know since Ive been watch the Jays have been extremely aggressive. Swing at the 1st pitch. Kyle just throws damn 87 mph BP splitter right down the middle and its a freaking 348 foot homer according to Espn.

 

[coulomb]

Overmanaging AJ..

Your FN Fired!

 

[lonesometiger]

as I type someone did thank you Vierling

 

[coulomb]

I swear to shit AJ has a script that he sticks to, regardless of what happens..

today was "Pull Mize after the 6th, if he is still in there".

But he has 71 pitchs AJ, they have 2 frigging hits off of him. They are not seeing him for absolute shit.

F OFF AJ!

 

[lonesometiger]

Finnegan despite his 1.66 era he had some bad spots!

 

[biggunsbob]

Tigers 7th
Tork. K’s (on ball 4). Sigh
McKinstry Safe E-3. Caught stealing .
Perez FO-2 (pathetic at bat) now batting .163
Rogers



Jason said tigers in business. Did he notice who is coming up ?
I hope I’m wrong but WP is now batting
Mc-cant-hit caught stealing .
Sweet Rogers leads off next inning .
Tigers are just a poorly coached team.

What Happened to Lee ? Or was it just a pinch hit.

Workman pinch hit for him with the bases loaded, and struck out flailing at three curves in a row.

 

[biggunsbob]

That last pitch was 95 from Seabold on the K.
