Tigermojo Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 This is what happens when you give mediocre guys the closer role. It's not a save situation so I'll just go ahead and walk everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigerbomb13 Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 (edited) Kerry Carpenter is going to make it from Toledo by the end of the game and his two grand slams for the walk off. Book it. Edited August 7, 2022 by Tigerbomb13 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdog Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 At this point, the results don’t matter. Manning had the best outing of his career. The offense sucks and Soto imploded in a non save situation. But they have to use him because the bullpen is overtaxed. Good bullpens are a waste on a horrific team. Avila thinks he can get more value for them at a later point in time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The uproar will be deafening if he’s still the GM by Halloween. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romad1 Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Hey, hey. Ho, ho. Al Avila is mediocre at his job and is destroying a proud franchise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dtrain72 Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Soto making the allstar team just shows that nobody has really watched the Tigers this year...both him and Fulmer have been no where near as good as ppl seem think. The eye test/results dont lie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdog Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Al is not surviving. The question is if they go outside the org to find a replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though he had a rough game a couple nights ago, I was shocked at how good his numbers are (I hadn’t been laying close attention). Exhibit #754367 on why the save stat is dumb and antiquated.

Sports_Freak Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 I remember Leyland saying once that if you keep marching pitchers out there, eventually one will have an off-day and give up multiple runs. He was/is correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
