Saturday morning, Keider Montero will wake up top 30 in WAR and ERA in MLB,
with a 1.7 fWAR, which would be tied for 27th, and a 3.39 ERA which would be 25th!
Can we get over the idea that Keider Montero isn’t one of the 3 best Detroit Tigers stating pitchers in 2026, and please, no more bullpen.

To put the Tigers season in perspective, they are 13 games below .500 and they have added a ROY candidate with Kevin McGonigle and Dingler has become a top catcher in baseball.

 

[biggunsbob]

Well this game has started poorly .
Valdez throws a hanger.
It was crushed .
Trail 2-0.
Greene made a diving catch to end the second.

Tigers got two runners on in the second .
But
McKinstry. .176
Outman. .163
Rogers. .147
All suck.

Top third Valdez getting hit hard. Trails 3-0 now. .
Bottom 3rd.

81 more games of this shitty offense, pitching, defense, and up and down bullpen.

In the mean time, the smartest guy in the room will keep finding retreads off the waiver wire, and **** up the trading of Skubal Mize or anyone else.

Looks like more and more it will be a strike in 2027, and Manfred will become the new shithead baseball commissioner with bud selig passing the torch of huge shithead to a more deserving shithead with manfred.

Tork gets hit after letting a hanger go by.

Greene fouls out before him on a nice play by the 3b.

Carpenter has bases loaded.

 

[biggunsbob]

Kaboom!!! 390 Feet !

Carpenter has bases loaded hr !!!

 

[biggunsbob]

Outman swings right through a 83 mph sweeper. Looked like another hanger to me.

 

[kalinecountry]

Grand slam for Carpenter, at least for now they lead. Was the pitch a meatball?
Up to Valdez and the bullpen.

 

[biggunsbob]

Valdez gets a break catching that bunt.

 

[gotime909]

Framber is a turd. Hes our #4 starter

 

[biggunsbob]

Valdez blows today Peña singles on a 0-1 pitch.
He failed to get over to first on the play before.
4-4.

 

[gotime909]

Framber is a turd. Hes our #4 starter

I forgot Mize. Valdez is our 5

 

[biggunsbob]

Who on this team hits more balls right at players.Seems like colt Keith is hitting liners right at guys all the time.

 

[biggunsbob]

2 out Base hit by Tork ! 5-4 Tigers.
Pitching change lefty coming in.


Pitching change lefty.
Kerry bounces out to 1st.

(Man oh man all of our eyes went wide on that 1st pitch to carpenter)
Man it looked good to hit.

 

[biggunsbob]

Kaboom
Lee !! 369 Feet !! To left. His 3rd.
6-4 Tigers

 

[biggunsbob]

Rogers flys out deep to left. . He just cant hit any homers
anymore. ……Kevin flys out deep to left to.

 

[gotime909]

With 2 outs how does old lady Riley Greene not score from 1st on that tork double. Embarrassing

 

[biggunsbob]

Hold breath time.
Tiger pen time.


Yes they have been a tad better but I don’t trust them.

 

[biggunsbob]

Anderson always gets 2 outs Then walks a guy.
So freaking frustrating.
Seems like he should be pulled AJ.
Come on.
Clown pen strikes again.
All with two outs. 6-5 now.
