chasfh Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 Has anyone established the over-under on when Lorenzen goes on the IL with a shoulder injury? He has missed 68 and 107 days in each of the last two years with that. Let's say fifth inning. Who wants that action? 😏 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sports_Freak Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 The opposing teams have the book on Maton. Ship him out already.....why is he hitting 5th? 3 pitch strikeout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sports_Freak Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 You just KNOW the announcers are really bad when I turn the volume up just to hear Johnny Kane. C-Mi should never be allowed in the booth. Like fingernails on a chalkboard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gehringer_2 Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 (edited) They're fielding an offense that would not even be average in the International league. Edited June 3 by gehringer_2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romad1 Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 i'm in a bad mood after my daughter's softball game. This was a rough season. I shouldn't take it out on the Tigers...they are trying their best. [gack] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gehringer_2 Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 (edited) Torkelson has made strides since last season but he's over doing the team mantra. He's not just waiting for pitches to hit, he's waiting for perfect pitches. It's going to get him a lot of walks but he's not going to be much help against good pitching until he's willing to be a *little* less picky early in the count.

C-Mo says "good swing, that's what you want to do". Yeah, Craig. That's just about the most stupid thing you could say. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good enough? I say no. How long do we give him? 2 more years? Remember Harris didn't draft him. There's not going to be any loyalty from the front office.

That's just about the most stupid thing you could say. This goes back to my ongoing criticisms of Craig Monroe: he talks like he’s still in the clubhouse, using clubhouse nicknames for the players, which makes me roll my eyes; he’s a “let’s go, boys!” rooter behind the mic, which makes me roll my eyes; and he’s basically a PR manager for the players, spinning anything that’s suboptimal into bland positives because hey, he’s gotta be around those guys the next day, so he's gotta watch what he says. Actually, "'he's gotta watch what he says" may not be even exactly true. Maybe he doesn't have to watch what he says at all because he's been steeped in elite jockocracy since probably at least high school, with all the language and thought processes attendant to it, so he's probably hard-wired to say the thing that most supports the guys. Either way, it's pretty amateurish. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On que Monroe says "Badoo needs to make Graveman work " and after Badoo flys out on the first pitch the next statement by Monroes is "Badoo trying to impact the game with his elite power"...
