IdahoBert Posted May 21 Posted May 21 I am absolutely amazed, especially after that first game. Wow. I would’ve been totally OK with a 1-2 series in St. Louis and the idea that we go and actually win the series 2-1 is just astonishing. 1 Quote

lordstanley Posted May 21 Posted May 21 Series win against what had been a red-hot St. Louis team. 4-2 road trip. Tigers can do little wrong. Quote

But to expand on it? I mentally resigned myself to the Tigers losing this game. As a BP day and against a very good home team, I didn't see how we could win. So a victory here is pure joy, as it was unexpected. Quote
IdahoBert Posted May 21 Posted May 21 I wonder how collegial the Tigers and Cardinals Live group broadcast is going to be. Quote
chasfh Posted May 21 Posted May 21 It's always good to beat a good National League team two of three in their park—especially one that is arguing our biggest rival over there. 1 Quote

IdahoBert Posted May 21 Posted May 21 Is Dingler really tall and Daniela really short? He is towering over her. Quote
gehringer_2 Posted May 21 Posted May 21 Even with the BP game today the Tigers have 6 BP arms available and a starter that has gone at least 5 in 7 of 9 starts. AJ and this staff are pretty much re-writing the book on how to design and manage a pitching staff. 1 Quote

And what is really remarkable is they're doing it (last year and today) with the 3 hitter minimum rule. Pretty amazing. Quote
IdahoBert Posted May 21 Posted May 21 Against Cleveland will be going with Flaherty, Jackson Jobe, Chaos, then Skubal. Quote
gehringer_2 Posted May 21 Posted May 21 (edited) Cleveland does not have a RHB with an OPS+ >101. Edited May 21 by gehringer_2 Quote

IdahoBert Posted May 21 Posted May 21 I’m grateful that when we play Cleveland we don’t have to share the pre-and post game with their FanDuel counterparts. They have their own network thing going on. Quote

gehringer_2 Posted May 21 Posted May 21 (edited) In addition to Skubal, both Reese and Jobe have negative platoon OPS against splits - they have been handling LHH. The good part about a staff that throws the change-up. Edited May 21 by gehringer_2 Quote
