chasfh Posted July 25 Posted July 25 Whoa, squeeze attempt! Not a terrible idea, but you have to know how to bunt, too. Wasting those first two pitches on that costs us an out, but at least he did not hit into a double play. Quote
chasfh Posted July 25 Posted July 25 Tork to pinch-hit? Wow, that's a big vote of confidence by Skip. Quote
Motor City Sonics Posted July 25 Posted July 25 damned bullpen, but the offense didn't help. Maybe it's time to move Lee up in the lineup and move Carptener out. Our outfield, other than Greene, is just pathetic. Quote
IdahoBert Posted July 25 Posted July 25 This was a winnable game, and I know all winnable games cannot be won, but darn it would’ve been nice to get this one. Quote

Motor City Sonics Posted July 25 Posted July 25 When Javy comes back in about a week - they're going to send Malgeri down, but they should be cutting Vierling. I used to really pull for that guy, but I've seen enough. He needed an opprtunity to show and he's completely failed. He had a GOLDEN opportunity this year and we get .206/.257/.584 - that is ugly. 1 Quote
Motor City Sonics Posted July 25 Posted July 25 When is Jackson Jobe going to pitch for the Tigers this year? Mid August? Quote

A surprise bunt on the first pitch woulda worked. But wasting 2 pitches, bunting like a chump? Inexcusable. Quote

He's pitching a rehab start tonight at Erie. But I dont know what their plans are. Many pitchers struggle for the first few months after coming back from TJ surgery. Quote

Tiger337 Posted July 25 Posted July 25 Blame the bats. Blame the bullpen. The real reason the Tigers lost today is Jimmy Outman was nowhere to be seen. With Outman 20-11 Without Outman 30-44 Quote

Well, when he does come back - if he starts - he needs to prepare himself for the fact that he'll have to throw a near-perfect game to get a W with this lineup. Quote
Motor City Sonics Posted July 25 Posted July 25 What is Lee hitting in his second stint, around .315? Let me look this up............Oh wow, .333. Nice ! Quote

With Outman 20-11 Without Outman 30-44 I know you're joking so I won't comment about cherry picking some meaningless stat. But the real problem? We're missing Wenceel Perez. 😅😅 Quote
