The Bryce Rainer injury domino effect.
TMLR

The Detroit Tigers have been at or near the top in OPS for most of the season. Now #8 as the team struggles for runs. Doesn't help that Riley Greene has returned to feast or famine mode w/4 SOs Saturday.

Greene has had the worst series I've ever seen a player have at the plate. Thankfully Tork picked him up. Pisses me off how quick AJ sits tork after a bad game, but just let's Greene keep striking out at a record pace. AJ just isnt consistent.

 

[gotime909]

Great scoop from tork on the old javy 1 hop cannon from short.

 

[@Stakesarehigh]

Hopefully that gets Greene on track if nothing else. Wish Kerry gave it a shot there

 

[@Stakesarehigh]

Bruh, two walks before the heart of the lineup.

 

[gotime909]

Great throw Kerry!!! I remember people saying he was a horrible defender. Ive never once felt that way watching him in right

 

[gotime909]

Throw strikes jack

 

[@Stakesarehigh]

Good thing he is six foot 5 lol

 

[gotime909]

Holy shit, parker almost cost us 4 runs hot dogging in center. No idea what he was thinking there. Wow

I see him as league average on a good day, not bad enough to waste DH on him most days imo.

 

[gotime909]

Baez had to be loafing on that ball

 

[gotime909]

I wonder if Greene is playing with a back injury of some sort. He's running like an 70 year old

 

[gotime909]

Greene is 2-2 since I shit on him. You're welcome guys lol

 

[@Stakesarehigh]

Not going to be many innings where a guy gets those 3 1 2 3 on the third time through.

 

[gotime909]

This bullpen will always get it to 1 swing away from losing.

This bullpen will always get it to 1 swing away from losing.

Need a little more consistency outside of Kahnle, Vest and Hurter but as a unit they're 6th in the league in era and WHIP is 7th. Could be worse lol.

Holy shit I was watching in the car on way home and told my son the same thing. He was so nonchalant and I told him he was lucky to be
