8/1/25 6:45PM Tigers @ Phillies

[Motor City Sonics]

Yep, the GM with no Balls goes Yzerplan on the baseball team and gets a bunch of stiffs for the bullpen.   It would not have cost your best prospects to get some decent arms.    Yzerman has an out - his team is not close to being a Cup contender.   Harris needed to do something significant and flat-out failed.     Not using them in this close game tonight.   First game after the deadline and it bites them in the ass.   

It's idiotic to assume everything will go right again like it did this year.    And they wasted an opportunity to really go for it.   

 

And that play just now.  I think the guy might have been safe.

Exactly
And Flaherty got pulled as he should have at that point

Agreed

[Tenacious D]

He’s gonna be safe, but Javy made a great play.

What bullpen?

[Sports_Freak]

Game over. Philly traded for a real closer.

[IdahoBert]

Well heck. 

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

I was very confused for a second when FDSN forgot to light up the two outs after the review.

But at least we have 50 great minor league players who may be in the major leagues some day....or not.

SCORE RUNS DUMMIES 

[Tenacious D]

Need some 9th inning heroics because a loss will really suck with the pen giving up all of the runs.

wasn't much more Javy could do. That's probably only an out if Andy can come up with it.

The ball is in play..no swing and miss...I've heard that before.

[Sports_Freak]

A very winnable game. Those hurt more than getting blown out.

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

trolls coming in with fIrE hInCh in 3... 2...

[TigerForever]

ARGHHHHHHH!

[Motor City Sonics]

Who is going in next,  the electric Kyle Finnegan and that breathtaking 7.4 K per 9 rate?   Luke Jackson and that shutdown WHiP of 1.46?  The incredible Raffy Montrero?     Oooh,  goosebumps with that haul.    Can't wait for that Charlie Morton call, maybe his kids can go to the game, if they can get out of their college classes.  

[lordstanley]

Loss. Closer Duran retires the Tigers on 4 pitches.

Maybe Hinch should only use Vest in the 9th inning? Last week against Toronto;
