Well, I'll have to eat crow about Verlander: He is a bum now

Yes and my fantasy team is suffering because of this. JV was just a flash in the pan I guess

 

[dougplayer]

great job again for Ausmus.


he let verlander give up 7 runs. but ... only let reed give up 5 runs before he pulled Reed!!


Verlander should have been pulled before he let Omar hit a 3 run homer.


BUT. Reed!! got no one out and let 5 runs in. HOW can Ausmus just set back and do nothing????? come on! 5 runs and he got no one out???? Ausmus hasn't got a clue.

 

[bksballer89]

You can't blame the manager for everything.

yeah flash in the pan. he is going through his worst 6 game stretch in his career. still 6 great years is just a flash in the pan. right jay????

Yes in terms of possible HOF career. Right now if he retires tmr, he will be known as a decent pitcher who had a few good seasons and 1 great year.

Yes, Verlander is usually always pulled after he has gone 5 innings. Damn Ausmus!!! Leyland got us some championships at least.

That Verlander/Miggy window is closing....slowwwwwwly.

 

[dougplayer]

3 great years...but whos counting?


had 2 big laughs this game.


any time you throw to Avila. if it aint right in his mitt...he cant catch it. this time he couldn't even block it..cost tigers 2 runs.


and Castellanos. the guy I said is over matched. and people cried. said he is just a rookie.
Varga pitching... threw 26 pitches. tiher had 2 men on. he just walked Avila. Miggy on 2nd. Castellanos had a 1-0 count. he chases a ball down in the dirt to end the inning. this kid has no idea about pitch counts. swinging at shit in the dirt down 5 runs. He is over matched.

Verlander already gave up 4 runs. had 2 men on. proved all night he he had trouble getting that 3rd out. He was going to be out any ways after the 6th. sso why not pull him?

because in Verlander's career, he has always bounced back and pitched more innings effectively, but the MRI should soon tell us why he isn't the same.

 

[navamind]

J.D. Martinez with the rally-killing grand slam! :rollseyes:

Holy LOL. This is one of the stupidest things I've ever read.

 

[navamind]

I look for Verlander to have a big game tonight.

Don't worry, broken clocks are right twice a day. Just keep predicting it and you're bound to get it right every now and then.

 

[Fountain City Blues]

Royals threw out all of their wounded ducks in the BP. Would have been less stressful the last two innings with a 2 run lead if Davis and Holland were pitching, good grief. Can't wait for Chen to join the bullpen at this point. Valencia coming back would be nice too for platoons.

 

[Fountain City Blues]

Royals win tomorrow and it will be the first time they are in 1st place at the 70 game mark since 1980...

 

[Nosferatu]

Royals win tomorrow and it will be the first time they are in 1st place at the 70 game mark since 1980...

If I piss my pants tomorrow it will be the first time since


1970...

 

[gandydancer]

I must be in gandys head. he wants my knowledge

What knowledge have you stated? Me and CSD fuck with each other. At least we state some stats and facts at times. The shit you babble is pure comedy. Only issue is you are the only poster on this thread that has no clue how clueless you are.

I am so glad Verlander had a great game. Thanks Dougie, I do thrist that knowledge you posess.

 

[gandydancer]

When is the last time he threw a quality start?

I think Jeter has struckout about 30 times since though.

Now I see why Ausmus is a bum in your eyes. Let me guess did Ausmus over run 2nd like JD did and take a run away early. Did he swing for the greatest hitter in game and GIDP? to kill early rally. Did he bobble shit or Saurez. Verlander has sucked balls his last 7 starts. Ausmus has shit to do with it.

Reed didnt get rocked by Twins other day. Ausmus felt bad for him.

And on June 17, it will mean ...
