Detroit Tigers Ongoing 2016 Thread

Timing....Tiger's offense needs to put up more than 4 runs today. To expect Pelfrey to hold Boston to 4 is not rationale. If the Tigers win this one...you'd have to consider it a steal.

Off to a good start, pretty sure were going to need all 4 of those runs and then some.

Well in one swing of the bat Pelfrey again blows.

 

[Lions=TeHsUcKs]

Pelfrey is agonizing to watch, like Brad Penny several years back.

 

[themuzzer]

Good bats in the 5th but 10 plus runs is probably going to be needed to win this one.

 

[Iffster]

A simple system really. Score 9 runs when Pelfrey start and 10 runs when Sanchez starts. Tigers should win "a few" of those games.

 

[Lions=TeHsUcKs]

Close games. Still need more consistency. I hope the lineup improves when JD comes back and Collins can be an asset for now on.

 

[Lions=TeHsUcKs]

I want to add another thing. If Miggy has another month long slump, this team won't survive. It is CRUCIAL that it doesn't happen again this season. Who else agrees?

 

[Howie115]

I was joking with the wife when she told me the score was 4-0, saying "If Pelfrey is pitching, I won't be comfortable until we have 8 runs." Okay, I was off by 1.

Heading to da U.P. for 5 days. Won't be checking in as much.

Looks like a Tigers' sweep from my perspective. I suppose, if the Red Sox and Tigers can't find a way to both lose the series, the Red Sox getting swept is as good an outcome as any.

 

[themuzzer]

KA-BOOM!!!!!!!!!MIGGY IN THE TOP OF THE 9TH TO BREAK THE TIE!!!!!!!! DON'T BLOW IT DETROIT!!!!!!!

 

[themuzzer]

HUGE WIN FOR THE MOTOR CITY KITTIES!!!!!!!!! INDIANS LOSE JUST PUTS THE ICING ON THE CAKE!!!!!

 

[themuzzer]

Time for management to make a move, we didn't fade away at the trade deadline, we closed the gap......Need some pitching relief big time!!!!!!!! Once JD gets back we have the bats, just need some arms!!!!!!!!

The Tribe are losing ground to Detroit. Hopefully the A's win the series in Cleveland
