Turn the page. Bounce back. And, maybe, try throwing strikes?

Last 7 days of Bullpen Issues

Harris is going to need to upgrade this by the deadline or we will flame out again 

[kdog]

I think there is a cascading effect of losing meadows steady defense in center…lots of guys moving around…plus Gleyber looks like a corpse.

offense and starting pitching will be fine in the macro…bullpen and defense I have no idea.

[Tigermojo]

Bone head throwing errors by Javy, De Jesus and Flaherty have cost them about half a dozen runs in the past week.

Good news is Melton may be ready for rehab soon.

Any stat that shows Burch Smith as your best BP arm is flawed. Or just cherry picked.

[Sports_Freak]

The strategy of these bullpen arms nibbling around the corners until they fall way behind in the count and then have to pour fastball over the middle of the plate? Yeah, it isnt working. Fix them, Fetter.

Or do we suddenly have an entire pitching staff (except for Skubal) who can't throw strikes? I dont believe that.

Flaherty pitching today.

Yeah, that was worrisome.

Well  this broadcast is on FOX and I couldn’t get it through YouTube TV - only the Dodgers, of course - but the Internet lied when I asked if I could watch it on MLB TV and the “Internet“ solemnly informed me that I could not watch it live and it would only be available 90 minutes after the completion of the game. But here it is on mlb.tv.

I'm pretty sure ESPN and AppleTV are the only services that are blacked out on mlb.tv.

[IdahoBert]

Oh boy, Fox is doing FanDuel odds. Yippie! Free money we’re all getting rich!

[Tigermojo]

Those uniforms are wow.

I think the games that Peacock shows on Sunday are exclusive, but I’m not sure. At least in the Detroit area people can watch this game on their Fox affiliate. 

[Tigermojo]

Bye bye bye.

ah, is Peacock new this season? I don't remember the Tigers being on one of those broadcasts yet.
