IdahoBert Posted Thursday at 07:14 PM Posted Thursday at 07:14 PM Another 100 pitch plus starter from the twins. Do they know something the rest of us don’t or are they just flying by the seat of their pants? Quote
IdahoBert Posted Thursday at 07:18 PM Posted Thursday at 07:18 PM The wheels on the bus may be coming off of Flaherty start today after allowing two hits in a row. Quote
Sports_Freak Posted Thursday at 07:26 PM Posted Thursday at 07:26 PM Tigers get good pitching? Yeah, sorry, no offense. Baserunners but 0 runs. Quote
holygoat Posted Thursday at 07:27 PM Posted Thursday at 07:27 PM What if they call up Max Clark, not to replace Parker Meadows, but Riley Greene? Quote

Everytime he gives up baserunners, I wonder if this is the inning he implodes. Hinch did a good job pulling him today. Quote

kdog Posted Thursday at 07:30 PM Posted Thursday at 07:30 PM It was always possible that running most of the same offense back might not lead to improvement. Quote
chasfh Posted Thursday at 07:34 PM Posted Thursday at 07:34 PM Oh my god, they scored a run in the blue jerseys. Quote

Fun fact: Tigers are a top ten offense in terms of wRC+ and wOBA, and top half in runs scored, right about where they were last year. Their pitching, however, is 22nd in strikeouts, 23rd in walks yielded, 18th in FIP, 22nd in ERA. Quote

Run prevention has been the bigger problem, both pitching and some of their defense. Edited Thursday at 07:43 PM by gehringer_2 Quote
IdahoBert Posted Thursday at 07:43 PM Posted Thursday at 07:43 PM So we’re tied, but on a sac fly nothing to write home about. I wonder if this team was figured out by “baseball” because they’re picking up where they left off in the regular season last year, regardless of showing some sparks in the playoffs. Or I wonder if it’s just baseball Quote
gehringer_2 Posted Thursday at 07:45 PM Posted Thursday at 07:45 PM Holton wanted no part of Buxton there. Quote
Hongbit Posted Thursday at 07:46 PM Posted Thursday at 07:46 PM It’s truly amazing they employ 3 guys as hitting coaches yet they miss so many middle, middle mistake fastballs. It happened all last year too. Quote
IdahoBert Posted Thursday at 07:48 PM Posted Thursday at 07:48 PM Got out of the inning at least. Right now I’m just hoping for a skin of your teeth, white knuckled, hold my beer Martha, one run victory. I’d take anything that results in a W. Quote

It happened all last year too. Or just take them. I find it an odd combination. As a team, they K a lot, but they are fundamentally not aggressive hitters, it seems more because they get behind. Tork esp takes a lot of good strike ones. Edited Thursday at 07:52 PM by gehringer_2 Quote
NorthWoods Posted Thursday at 07:58 PM Posted Thursday at 07:58 PM Jeezus that happens enough with Tigers OFers. You would think they learn to yell. Quote
Tigermojo Posted Thursday at 07:59 PM Posted Thursday at 07:59 PM He's going to the concussion IL for sure. Quote

GalagaGuy Posted Thursday at 08:02 PM Posted Thursday at 08:02 PM Parker got jacked in the jaw. Quote
Tigermojo Posted Thursday at 08:03 PM Posted Thursday at 08:03 PM He was able to get up and sit on the cart. Quote
