They didn’t kill Zach when they hit his hand with the ball did they?

Nice nine pitch clean first inning by Montero

I noticed the Tigers have a .615 winning PCT. compared to the mighty Red Sox at .500. Detroit also boasts a run differential of +34 compared to Boston’s -5, and the Tigers are averaging 4.46 runs per game, barely less than the Red Sox 4.57. When I think of all the attention in the Red Sox get, the Tigers are doing comparatively pretty good.

Even though this game was not a slam dunk a lot of good things happened.

A win is a win is a win is a win.

Tork bomb

Don’t blow this Holton.

It’s the top of the lineup so if they get a man on, he will be up.

This Perez guy who’s pitching now is my kind of Orioles pitcher with an ERA of 11.32.

More runs please

Nope

My ding a ling….

This Baker guy has been good he’s due for regression! Score

Where’s my 26 runs?

I was really looking forward to the team kicking ass tonight.

It’s too bad they can’t just go next door and play indoors at Ford Field. The Dodgers played initially at the LA Memorial Coliseum and it had strange dimensions, but they made it work. Sort of…

Well, heck.

Thank you. I appreciate the response

I don’t doubt that this is true but can you elaborate on this a bit? I don’t tend to pay too much attention to off-season news about other teams.

FYI - Sunday’s game w/Skubal pitching is the free MLB.tv game of the day.

The guy who does the general wrap up at the end of the radio broadcast of the last game said this series was taking place in Baltimore and the Tigers were “going on the road.” He said it twice. Since the Tigers don’t have a mega TV contract and do like ticket sales I am presuming he heard about this mistake.

Indeed, we are very fortunate. It makes the team intrinsically more exciting than it used to be. So nice to know that his strategy and tactics go beyond always batting a slender Latino infielder in the second slot just because that’s what you’re supposed to do.

So often through pinch hitting and defensive replacements, AJ ends up using most and sometimes the entire 13-man position player roster. From what I can tell, all of these are calculated moves, not something done casually, and that there’s a method behind it all. It’s fascinating to watch this unfold. Maybe this has always been happening and I’m only now beginning to pay attention to it, but whatever is happening it seems to yield results that appear more fruitful compared to the payoffs that I used to see under other managers.

I wasn’t even aware he existed then so you are cool.
