All it took for Javy to draw two walks in one game was to face the favorite for CY. Can't make it up!

Because we are the Tigers and they are the Blue Jays

They would be leading the Central with the Blue Jay lineup. No doubt about it.

Wow

Miggy is also a veteran lol

I really liked the approach for the first few batters. Probably won't like Javy's tho lol

Roboumps yesterday Seriously, Brieske wasn't getting those calls

Roboumps, like, yesterday

Meadows has kickass sunglasses...

Lol, Gibby talking about taking the governor off... Has he seen who is pitching for the Jays today?

Victor plays acceptable outfield defense. Big distinction

To be fair to the fans, it's fair to wonder about the confidence question as it pertains to Tork. Having said that, I trust AJ to know if / when that time comes.

Good for the Giants? I guess the question I have for all the folks clamoring to send Tork down, aside from the fact that it's debatable that it would do anything at all for him developmentally, is who he gets replaced with. Miggy isn't starting in the field everyday, nor should they be moving one of the better second baseman in the league defensively to 1B most games. But if you do does that mean we get more Willi and Kody in the infield? None of that improves the situation at all. And I dont know what it does for Tork who, for all his struggles, doesn't appear to be lacking confidence.

If Brieske can replicate what he did against NY, he may keep it respectable pitching wise. But I'm having a hard time seeing this club scoe runs against Gausman

If you count his time in Salt Lake, Brendon Davis would be two fwiw Point still is well taken though

I'm OK with this, even though Greene would have been the sexier pick.

Would not be shocked to see him beat everyone's expectations, yet fall to 0-6 because the offense can't score runs against someone like Gausman. He's like a glorified Mike Maroth lol

Bear in mind a clean sweep means getting rid of AJ and Chris Fetter. And a whole bunch of guys they hired from other (more successful) orgs in the offseason to revamp their minor league development team. (ie. Ryan Garko, Gabe Ribas, etc.) It's painful, and I'm certainly on board with canning Al, but they've also made a lot of changes within the areas you are complaining about within the past 12 months. And I don't think firing Ryan Garko or Gabe Ribas after just hiring them away from the Angels and Dodgers is a smart idea at all.

Beau Brieske must feel cursed drawing this matchup.

At least it will be a bat... this team has availed itself of 14 pitchers longer than it probably has needed to.

First win as a pro... (yes, I know W-L don't matter anymore lol)

What blows my mind is that they havent been shutout the most in the league - the Royals have. (IIRC) The lack of home run ball really hurts... if you're in a situation where you need 8+ hits in a game to score 4 runs on a given night, you aren't gonna score a lot of runs and win many games in this league.

Obvious move. They need to go bold and bring up Reyes or Greene

Happier times 45 mins down I-75

Greene needs to be here tomorrow. Enough already. EDIT: although they will call up Reyes
