Motor City Sonics Posted Monday at 06:20 PM Posted Monday at 06:20 PM You ****ing BUM. You have this guy at 1-2 and you throw a ****ing piece of meat like that. **** this guy. He sucks and I don't want him anywhere near the rotation in the postseason. Quote
Motor City Sonics Posted Monday at 06:20 PM Posted Monday at 06:20 PM Great trade, Scott. Great trade deadline, too. Quote

No, although that’s a good one. My favorite one is After Hours the one with Ann Francis, and the mannequins. In the end she remembers who and what she really is. 1 Quote
Motor City Sonics Posted Monday at 06:22 PM Posted Monday at 06:22 PM I am so ****ing pissed right now. He throws a cookie right down the middle to SOTO ? What the hell was that? You couldn't get him with that even before your AARP day. Quote
gehringer_2 Posted Monday at 06:22 PM Posted Monday at 06:22 PM (edited) Hinch seems to be losing his touch. He's waited one batter too many a bunch of times recently. Sharpen that hook up AJ. Can't let optimism get the best of you as a manager. Edited Monday at 06:23 PM by gehringer_2 Quote
Motor City Sonics Posted Monday at 06:23 PM Posted Monday at 06:23 PM Twilight Zone time for me too. Maybe it'll chill me out after that. I mean, right down the middle to Soto. Moron. Quote

Sports_Freak Posted Monday at 07:26 PM Posted Monday at 07:26 PM Sommers shouldn't have been used for multiple innings. Lazy managing. Quote
gehringer_2 Posted Monday at 07:30 PM Posted Monday at 07:30 PM (edited) The pitching staff is starting to reach critical failure mass - which is what happens when a manager loses so much confidence in his bullpen arms that he leaves starters out too long. The result is failed starts and failed relief, and it all snowballs into outcomes like this. Edited Monday at 07:32 PM by gehringer_2 Quote

gehringer_2 Posted Monday at 07:37 PM Posted Monday at 07:37 PM what little hope is left is Melton away... Quote
Sports_Freak Posted Monday at 07:58 PM Posted Monday at 07:58 PM I wish Hinch would have used Melton in the 6th instead of Sommers. Quote

It's just Sommers has now given up 6 runs in his last 7 innings. Forget lefty-righty match up, the guy is a AAA pitcher, at best Quote
Sports_Freak Posted Monday at 08:12 PM Posted Monday at 08:12 PM Dingler with a 3 run walkoff home run. Yeah, I called it. 😆 Quote
Sports_Freak Posted Monday at 08:20 PM Posted Monday at 08:20 PM And today was our best chance. The next 2 Met pitchers are pretty good. Scoring 8 runs should win the game for you. Quote

Forget lefty-righty match up, the guy is a AAA pitcher, at best One of things I have finally begun to understand about bullpens is that in the modern game, managers don't really decide who they are going to use out of the bullpen, GMs do, because you have to use everyone - there are too many BP innings needed to hide anyone or just save them for mop up. You just don't have the spots with starters' innings constantly falling. So if a guy in on the roster, he's going to pitch - and you are going to take your lumps if he isn't any good.

gehringer_2 Posted Monday at 08:52 PM Posted Monday at 08:52 PM (edited) This Tiger season is beginning to remind me too much of last years Lions' season. Great team that takes on too many injures by the end of the season to remain great. Though with the Tigers it not just injuries but also pitchers just lost to ineffectiveness - Brieske, Hurter, Holton, Edited Monday at 09:36 PM by gehringer_2 Quote
