UCFKNIGHT

I hate it when the Tigers have to play at Tropicana Field. At least Detroit won this series. Now, they have to focus on beating Kansas City.

I wonder if Parker Meadows is thinking about his brother Austin's mental health issues? It's just a thought. Austin Meadows mental health issues didn't surface until he was traded to Detroit. The Tigers should send Parker to AAA so he can hit the reset button at the plate.

It’s obvious the Tigers don’t want the sweep against the Rays. Want the current road trip to end and just going through the motions tonight

Tigers defense was a little shaky when Kenta Maeda was in the game, however he definitely looked more relaxed on the mound tonight.

Let's win this series and game 2 tonight!

I was too young and didn't see the Tigers win the World Series in 1968. I knew Dwight Lowry and Bill Fahey. I was a batboy for the Lakeland Tigers from 1981-1985. Dwight Lowry was our starting catcher in 1982 and Bill Fahey was our field manager in 1984. Dwight and Bill, two very good guys. Easy to get along with.

All-time backup catchers: Dwight Lowry, Bill Fahey and Sal Butera. Dwight(R.I.P.)

Parker Meadows, Javier Baez and Jake Rogers went 5 for 11 tonight against the Rays.

Another solid outing for our pitchers in this game. 12 K's and only 2 BB.

Feeling good about the Tigers win this evening. Great to have our beloved Tigers back in the win column. At this time, I believe the Tigers may play 135 one run games.🤣

Would it be possible to acquire a cather 19 games into the 2024 season? Jake Rogers and Carson Kelly are automatic outs these days. I liked the hiring of Scott Harris, but my patience with his decision making is being tested.

Should AJ move Kenta Mazda to the bullpen for a few weeks? Moving him to the bullpen is an expensive move. Paying a pitcher 12 million to pitch in low leverage situations may also appear to be a panic move.

The Al Avila administration wasted a first round draft pick on Spencer Torkelson. The Scott Harris administration knows this. The only reason Torkelson is on this roster is because he was the first player selected. Parker Meadows should also be sent down to AAA.

Would Buddy Kennedy be a better option than Zach Mckinstry?

Torkelson reminds me of Bob Horner. Both guys were drafted out of Arizona State. Horner knew how to frustrate Braves fans and Torkelson is currently frustrating Tigers fans. Horner would often have 3 or 4 doubles in a game and proceed to have 5 strikeouts the next night. Torkelson does basically the same thing. It's only a matter of time before Torkelson begins to gain weight and end up playing in Japan.
