too easy to pitch around Riley there.
-
So Drew Anderson has been the loaded chamber in tonight's game of pitcher Russian roulette.
-
-
Either Gameday is hallucinating (which I have seen before), or the 3rd strike call on Tork in the previous inning was a foot low of the zone.

I use it... in concert with the warning labels and at the recommendation of the local extension office. If you do that, there is little risk to the environment. And down here weeds can take over and kill a lawn.
I worked in the chemical industry too long not to take a rebuttable presumption against all chlorinated aromatics.

Jobe
JV
Melton
Olson
Mize
Skubal
Carpenter
Baez
Torres
MeadowsVest, Brieske

the reason tanking is worse is because everything they have done to try to reduce tanking has had the result of increasing the number of teams willing to take a shot at the first pick. It's a counter-intuitive thing. Teams tank normally if there one player head and shoulders (in Wemby's case, literally) above the field. If they just went back to worst record gets 1st pick, there would one, maybe at least two teams fighting it out to be worst, and everyone else would play on because they know they have zero shot at #1. And the one team that tanked would get the player so it would be one time thing for them. The objective evidence is that the 'fixes' have all made it worse, but no-one figures out that the answer to that is dump all the fixes.It's the lottery itself that encourages more teams the take their shot at a ~10% (or whatever) chance.

Coincidence. They went through the shame **** at the end of last year without an injury to Skubal.
Freudian typo!

There's more pesticide use in SE Michigan? I've lived in the south for a while now, and there's a bunch more needed down here. Also, a lot of the anti-pesticide (not all) stuff out there is junk science, so I immediately have some skepticism when I hear them blamed for something.
we use too much 2,4D, but so does everyone. For my money it's a bit insane to plant grass and then put poison on it to stop things that naturally grow in grass from living there (e.g. dandelions). YMMV.
-
The only positive take away tonight was that Madden saved the BP for the next few days, if they can hit enough to take advantage.

The problem is the offense has weeks where they just don't do much.
No pixie dust this season for McKinstry or Jones, Javy and Torres down, Keith in some weird place, nothing from Jake, neither Torkelson nor Green have been consistent. They are what they are, which right now ain't much. It's been Kevin and the eight dwarves.

I'm sure surgery went well but I have never read a report like, "surgery was a failure and the pitcher will probably end his career now...."
No, in fact IIRC - they kept that fact that there had been complications in Bonderman's outlet surgery under wraps for years.
-
Strike one to McKinstry was also ball -.....😡
-
Non competitive AB by Torkelson there.
-
Madden out for a 6th inning. If he doesn't give up a run he will have pitched a quality start in relief.
EDIT: and there it is, 6 IP / 3 ER.
-
Matt chases two ball 4 fours to strike out.
-
Madden threw 4 great innings. Unfortunately he was in the game for 5.

The Tigers are a very good team
The are not a 'very good hitting team' though - they are a pitch 1st team, so when the pitching isn't there, it's gets pretty rough.
-
I think it's been the book on the Tigers for a while that they will take strike one most of the time. Certainly been true tonight - though Tork swung at the 1st strike this last inning.

Is there a doctor in the house? Can we check to see if any of these guys has a pulse?
I think they are already in the care of a registered nurse anesthetist.
-
Wenceel had two good pitches to hit in that AB, took one and fouled the other off. Too many Tigers getting good pitches and either missing them or taking them.
-
so any word on Carpenter?
-
can you even say the Tigers Threatened when there is so little chance they would have scored?
