OK, Kenley, this is what we hired you for.

[gehringer_2]

I wanna million back every time he walks the lead-off hitter in the 9th.

[monkeytargets39]

Ok I’m done with Kenley.  Let Vest do it

**** you

[gehringer_2]

have I said before that I really hate bringing in old relievers at the end of their ropes?

[wolverinefan]

Ugh.

[monkeytargets39]

And we waste yet another great Skubal start

[IdahoBert]

I hate baseball…

Yup, I wasn't a big fan of this signing.  He is the kind of reliever Dombrowski used to sign

BOOOOOOOOOOO

[Motor City Sonics]

Stop bringing in over-the-hill "closers" please.    Didn't work for Al Avila either.       Congrats on getting into the top 3 of all time Kenley - now go away. 

[kdog]

same pitch in Arizona, Cincy, and Atlanta...definition of insanity etc. I don't know what their bullpen design is about. Nobody misses bats consistently..I just don't get it.

[IdahoBert]

He’s not going away. They’re gonna do this all year until it’s obvious to everybody that it’s unworkable.

Can someone quickly get a ‘27 Draft thread going?  Looks like we’ll need it.

[Motor City Sonics]

I didn't think they'd win a game in this series because the Braves are a very good team and the Tigers just aren't.   We should be extremely thankful that our team is in the AL Central.

Watching the Tigers with no sound on while the Pistons are on the big screen. As soon as Jansen walked the leadoff hitter, I thought he was gonna give it up. But the Pistons held on and Skubal scared the bile outta me!!

Joe Nathan...exactly. And the Angels DFA'ed their closer after blowing several 9th inning save chances. They must have seen enough of Jansen. They knew....

But the Tigers think they can get something out of these older guys - like Charlie Morton.      And now - for the first time that I can remember in a VERY long time,  the minors are not loaded with potential pitchers........well, not ones that could help them THIS year.

Use Finnegan or Vest as a closer? JV?

[motownblues]

A little sooner than I thought,but Kenley has already turned into Kahnle.
