good, now we have an asshole fan or something.

[chasfh]

Tommy Pham in the middle of some ****? Checks out.

[GalagaGuy]

Don't forget that Pham was suspended last month for getting into it with Angels fans.  Dude is Charmin soft.

Pham is going to start a riot.

[IdahoBert]

What was the guy in the stands doing? It’s unclear.

I agree.

Why not send Gleyber here?

Carpenter has been really bad in June at the plate so far. Hopefully he turns it around soon.

[Tigerbomb13]

That sucked 

[Tigermojo]

Series win!

[IdahoBert]

Loss. We won the series, which is the idea. And it’s a moral victory to come back from 4–0 but that’s not something to get the warm fuzzies about. It’s just baseball.

[chasfh]

Well, this was kind of worst of all worlds. We had to settle for a split after a rain delay that happened just as we had all the momentum. We come back flat and lose. We burned almost our entire bullpen, and now have to fly a red-eye to Florida to start a series tomorrow night against one of the few teams hotter than we are, hottest int he American League in fact.

Watch us beat them 15-2 tomorrow night, because baseball.

bullpen too short for many extra inning games. But what shouldn't be lost in all the noise at the end is that Holton is either broken or just coming down to earth after a season last year playing over his head. Either way, those are innings we don't have a replacement for if he can't pick it up.

[papalawrence]

Tampa has played 47 games at home and 28 on the road - after the Det series it will be 50/28. I don't recall ever seeing that. They're going to have a challenging schedule coming up.

he's a more than average streaky hitter. He'll win a game all by himself and then disappear for several games.

So we gained a half game on Cleveland but lost a half of a game to KC and the Twins. I'll take it.

And they're ahead in the wildcard race. They'll fold, hopefully starting this weekend.

[IdahoBert]

The Tigers still have the best record in baseball. In our own division, we have leads of 10.0, 10.5, and 11.0 over our closest competitors.

And although the Rays are a darn good team, they are slightly weaker at home than on the road. Then we play the Athletics at home with a day off in between. I like our chances.

[Tigermojo]

Carp probably should have been on the IL with the bum leg but there's no real lefty bat to replace him.

You haven't. It was deliberate - the  idea was to stay out of FLA during the summer monsoon.

I hope Flaherty was already in Florida? I doubt it though..

that's a good point. It certainly wouldn't be unusual to to send the starter ahead coming off the DH.   I wasn't watching but did anyone see him on the bench?

Wenceel could.
