The team that comes north to start the season usually has some turnover. There are several Tigers who don't belong in the majors but there's not a lot in the pipeline.

kdog Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 Wentz pitched well Bullpen blew it...but Englert didn't implode further. Cisnero got some help from his defense. They gave their offense a puncher's shot in the 11th and Maton knocked one out. I'll take it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenacious D Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 Looking forward to the Cody Stavenhagen feature in the Athletic in August, when he waxes poetic about how the Baez incident was the turning point for the team and their climb into playoff contention. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dtrain72 Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 Wait, what happened?! I turned it off to cleanse my pallete by clamping jumper cables to my nipples and sucking on a 9 volt battery after SF took the lead...they won?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Wisler or Rosenthal if they can get into a groove down there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's done a much better job of staying on FBs in the zone this year but maybe because of all those barrels early, he's lost his patience.

This game was clarifying from a bullpen perspective - Cisnero joins Shreve, Lange and Foley off the **** list, Englert is fine but needs to be in a position to be used like he's a Rule 5 pick. They need to figure out the last two spots currently held by Hill and Wingenter. Easier said than done, but that's how I see it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you are comfortable about doing that during every extra inning game the Tigers play this season. For superstition purposes. Admit it, you kind of enjoyed it, didn’t you.

oblong Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 All of my bitching about the clock making the games too quick came back to bite me. We get a 3 hour game they 9 and we left because we are running a race tomorrow morning so numb nuts missed the 11th! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knocked around the minor for long time without much success but starting doing something better in '21 at age 28 when the Tigers picked him up. His numbers from last yr at Toledo were decent but the Tigers never called him up last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diaz has had walk troubles in the past. If we don't see him in one of the first call-ups it's probably because they want more evidence he can keep his free passes in check.

Jim Cowan Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 Tampa loses 6-3, giving up 2 bases loaded walks and a horrifically botched routine grounder to short. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtutiger Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 (edited) There's been a lot of discussion about how there are no easy series in the first month and a half - but the Giants are probably the weakest of the bunch and I'm not convinced they are that much better than the Tigers. We kinda saw that at times... if they aren't hitting homers, things generally don't go well for them, they are very one dimensional offensively. Also, we hired their former GM, so let's hope it's more Farhan than Harris who is at fault lol Edited April 15, 2023 by mtutiger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good, I don't want them going 35-5. I love that the Tigers hold that record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
