I want you to sit down for this. They are going to suck again in 2023. But hopefully the GM is building an organization that can deliver more talent down the road.
Tigers paid down a portion of Joe's 2023 salary to get JHM. And they got a dude with a good walk rate who hits right handed(yuuuuge need). Maybe he turns into something or he doesnt; decent flier.
Tigers have 91 strikeouts and 2 HRs over last 7 games. According to @baseball_ref, that's the most K's by a team in a 7-game stretch with 2 HRs or less in live-ball era (since 1920).
Kopech threw 56 four seam fastballs the other day; Two were put in play. I would guess that the ability to hit fastballs is a contributing factor to hitting for power and not striking out.
