reason 5347 I've never had a desire to pick up a golf club.

Of course, if you were listening to to Dickerson and Monroe late in the game, you heard the discussion about Soto, where they described that he denied he was having trouble with his slider in conversations with both of them despite both of them remaining convinced that he is. He has a great fastball but he's still not going to have much success long term if he can't start throwing his slider for strikes with more consistency.

I wonder what he would bring. He's not a guy I have ever been able to have confidence in since he went to the BP, but that's me, maybe he'd rate high with some GM.

for all the good their 'exposure' did, both are still in office....

LOL - nothing more dangerous than the last minute of the period. Tampa not dead yet.

What are the choices? Kreidler, Clemens or Short? Kreidler apparently still having pain in the hand.

yup - Iggy got old fast.

and a big reason the D fell short? Your 3B went down on his first chance of the game. It's beyond tragic at this point, their luck is pure farce. As fans we can vent about Al and Hinch all we want, but unless they are sticking pins in voodoo dolls of their own team, the truth is it wouldn't/doesn't matter who is in charge.

man this team is putrid. How can they take 4 of five from Minny and lay three egg like this? Of course that took 2 SOs.

you have set up the force at home here. One time to use the iBB.

man on 2nd and a tiger can't put a ball in play. Bringing Soto out for a 2nd IP is probably the white flag on this one.

We got to the end of 9. Can we have credit for 3 losses and tie for the series?

first victory, Soto gets the leadoff man.

yankees have roughly a 70% better chance of scoring in a given inning than the Tigers.......

Lavarnway is hitting 290 at Toledo - is Haase still a better choice?

Harold and Haase combine for a futility play.

the old dude can still straighten out 98.

he's on a 1 for 17 but he had 50PA at a 900+ OPS before that, so I don't thinks he's going anywhere for a while.

Willi comes up with a double!

Meanwhile, Greene and Meadows both with hits today, but Kreidler not playing again.

A stolen base allowed and brain freeze by an infielder are going to be the difference. Amazing the pitching holds it close enough for those things to matter.

I've always thought that the best time to make the pitching change is after the 2nd out in a tough extended inning as it seems it's inevitable that the pitcher lets down after the 2nd out.

Still have a chance...

tigers just have no room for error. Walk, dumb play and straight into a hole.
