Then it was that he wasn't going to hit, and he did. Then he wasn't going to hit for power, but he seems to be...... The glass was always half empty with Isaac. Maybe they will still be right in the end but they have egg on their face right now. This Tigers administration have had egg crusted onto their face for years running.

I have MLB Extra Innings so I can time-shift it back and forth. The MTF downside is that it puts me about a minute or so behind the rest of you guys. I like the radio announcers on 97.1 or the Auducy app. bummer it doesn't match the video... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdog Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 What was it...Paredes didn't the pull the ball? Every single homer is a bomb to left. Meanwhile Tork only hits on the ground to the pull field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Cowan Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Just to present the complete story on Paredes, going into the game his OBP was .242 and his OPS+ was 87. We still have lots of guys who can't get on base, and aren't really missing him that much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not kidding, I don't think he was getting the opportunity he needed here. He wasn't. But Candelario was the biggest reason for that. Now all the sudden Candelario looks completely lost. There is some bad luck involved there too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the beat writers tripping overthemselves to retweet Paredes big night tonight (including Stavenhagen) all seemed to be on the same page with the FO as well.

They didn't given him a position to play or and confidence he'd get another AB. Some guys that doesn't bother, but it clearly did Isaac. The give away was when he came out of winter league having won the batting crown and then couldn't do anything in Det. You knew there was a player there we weren't seeing, whether it was major league or not, it was better than we were seeing.

We still have lots of guys who can't get on base, and aren't really missing him that much. That was my first thought as well. But with the three homers tonight, he now has 12 for the year between AAA and the big leagues. That's an improvement over what we are getting, which is low obp and low power.

kdog Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 changeup->Tork popup....I can guarantee if you send him down he's going to mash at Toledo. He has to figure it out up here. The team is going nowhere. Young players have to show growth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motor City Sonics Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Nights like tonight make me feel like we will never play a meaningful game again under Al Avila's managment. Feels like the Red Sox are toying with the Tigers............... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gehringer_2 Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 (edited) It's perfectly reasonable that Hinch has started Greene off low in the order to start, but you have to hope he can keep his head above water well enough to get flipped to in front of Miguel .....soon.!
