I think the Red Wings were the first team to put ads on the boards, by the way. At least the first in the NHL What's really interesting is the ads on the walls behind home plate are different for the opposing teams feed. When the Tigers win, I sometimes rewatch the opponent feed to hear the other announcers voice of depression. 😅 Quote
Tigermojo Posted July 8 Posted July 8 Brieske warming up. Hinch is trying to give us all heart attacks. Quote

IdahoBert Posted July 8 Posted July 8 I was reading a book and following this on gameday when four runs were scored in the sixth, so I’m watching it now. I didn’t realize that all the damage occurred with two outs! Wow! Quote
gehringer_2 Posted July 8 Posted July 8 I thought Hinch was going to blow this one sitting on his hands while Anderson self-immolated, but he got away with it. Good win aside from that and a couple of terrible AB by Tork. Waguespack looking like a nice pick-up. +1 Harris. Quote

Of course Hao Yu Lee could have just fielded the ball also. Anderson is going to give his manager ulcers though - plenty to like about the stuff but reliability is lacking.

gehringer_2 Posted July 8 Posted July 8 Guardians and Palehose fall. 6.5 games back. They've made up 5 games on the division lead in 31 games. Quote

BABIP of .103 seems unsustainable. Quote

Also only 5, out of the first wild card, 5.5 out of the 2nd, and 9 out of the first. (They made up 5 games on the Yankees in the last 10) Now tied with Oakland, and within a game of Baltimore and Boston). All without a real hot streak. it sure would be nice to see an 18 out of 20 win stretch like the White Sox had earlier, but keep winning series and they will continue to make up ground. Quote

Shelton Posted July 8 Posted July 8 The Tigers really are quite lucky that their outlier injury situation corresponded to an outlier season in the AL overall, where only three good teams are having success. Outside of the top 3, it really is quite tight. Compare this to the NL, where five teams are above 75% and the next team is at 40%. It can be tough to reconcile the odds with what the standings show from a games behind standpoint at this point of the season. That’s going to be the tough part when we get to the end of July. 1 Quote

Getting closer to that 33% range. Quote

I would say only two are preforming well, and that second team is going through something the Tigers went through in May right now. The Mariners are only two over .500 but have high odds because of a weak division and strong projections. Quote

Strength of schedule I suppose(?). Quote
