Jake Rogers becomes unlikely hero in Tigers’ win.
BYBTB

Tigers' Melton has career-high nine strikeouts in win over Athletics.
It’s been an emotional week already for the Tigers.
On Tuesday, the club and impactful third base coach Joey Cora suddenly, mutually, parted company.
Before the game Wednesday, Hall of Fame-bound Justin Verlander announced that this would be his final season. Not completely unexpected for the 43-year-old, but still a lot to process, for the organization, for his teammates and for the fanbase.

Troy Melton deals, Jake Rogers homers off bench for streaking Tigers.
On what was supposed to be a night on the bench, Detroit Tigers catcher Jake Rogers unexpectedly had to step up and deliver Wednesday, July 8.
The Tigers' backup catcher had to spring to action in the bottom of the second inning after All-Star Dillon Dingler exited with an apparent right-hand injury.
Rogers quickly turned on a 91 mph fastball from Athletics starters Jeffrey Springs for a two-run home run, his second of the season.

MID-SEASON GRADES: THE OVERALL TEAM.
Totally Tigers

We are down to the final grade evaluation for the Tigers at the halfway mark. It’s time to give the team an overall grade taking into account how you voted in all the other polls and how this organization looks overall. The votes you gave to each player and the overall total should be reasonably aligned with the final grade you give the entire organization.
Once we have all your votes, we’ll pull together and publish a final summary of how you voted for all parts of the franchise tomorrow.

What mid-season grade would you give the entire team?
A
B
C
D

VOTE

Overall, I gave them a very low C.
