The guys swing is too wild, hard and out of control. If I were an opposing manager, I would scream at any pitcher that threw it anywhere near the plate.
That being said, I saw Vlad hit a pitch that bounced one time. Pretty amazing...and funny.
Why would any pitcher ever throw a strike to Baez? Bounce it or throw it head high. He'll give it a mighty swing either way. I have never seen such an undisciplined hitter. Kinda hard to watch.
The Tigers aren't even the worst hit team WRT injuries. Last I saw, there were 2 or 3 teams with even more players hurt. But our injuries to our SP has to be a record or something.
It's amazing the the Tigers pitching has actually kept them in most games and it's our hitting that has cost us. 12 starting pitchers used? That's our entire rotation and Toledos rotation. With a couple more thrown in for good luck...
So has Schoop at 2nd base. How long do we keep going with these guys? We have Clemens and Kreidler for 2nd base. And, with Grossman, we have 5 outfielders. I guess depth is good...
Daz brings the energy this team needs. A 4th outfielder and defensive replacement? With Grossman, Meadows and Greene, there may not be room for Wili and Hill? I wonder if they have options?
