Detroit Tigers Ongoing 2014 Thread

I don't blame Dombrowski, though. Nathan was coming off a great season, even at age 38 last year. I loved the signing when I heard about it.

Egh. He's old. And a closer. I never liked the signing. Mostly because he's old, and a closer. That he also now points fingers and sucks isn't helping to win me over any. Wouldnt mind seeing him head to the DL tbh.

Wednesday night at Comerica Davis Kinsler Cabrera Martinez Hunter Jackson Avila Nick C Romine and Ricky on the hill.
Why was Worth the one to go?

 

[broncosmitty]

So DD hasn't thrown two players away for lousy options at short? And Suarez is brought up to sit? He's usually hard to criticize, but Dombrowski has left a lot of room for doubters recently. I wonder who will go when Dirks returns?

Miggy miggy miggy

So Worthless got the old DFA. Guess if ya lose 2 pop ups in the sun your gone. Give the NEW guy some time, after Bromine flubbed that grounder in the 9th, time for someone NEW (and doesn't strikeout 31% of the time).

KA-BOOM!!!!! IAN!!!!!

 

[themuzzer]

Ouch, good catch by Bautista.....

 

[burfboy]

when the Tigers were winning the bottom of the order was chipping in could happen here Jackson and Avila on base....

 

[burfboy]

you have to hit for Romine

 

[burfboy]

bases are full of tigers.....

 

[themuzzer]

Big Walk by Nicky C with a 3-2 count to load the bases....That's a mature at bat.

 

[broncosmitty]

JD Martinez?

 

[broncosmitty]

And he strikes out. Followed by a first pitch foul pop up. Ugh.

 

[burfboy]

Oh fuck again.....

 

[Cleaves2000]

Same old tigers. Load bases no outs. No runs. Smdh

 

[aar000n]

Its bases loaded choke time!!!!!!!!Its bases loaded choke time!!!!!!!!Its bases loaded choke time!!!!!!!!
Bases load with a yack yack yack

Bases load with a yack yack

Also why doesn't jackson every dive for the ball?

 

[themuzzer]

And Pop goes the bullpen....No secret, we all knew it before the season, no shocker here.

 

[broncosmitty]

I've heard AJ talk before about how diving for a ball isn't worth it to him. More bad than good can come of it, in his opinion. I kind of agree with him, but there have been a few over the years I thought he could get to. Never heard of anyone trying to teach a player to dive either.

CLOWN of the GAME AWARD. Tonight it goes to Brad Ausmus. How do you load the bases, no outs, and not score? EASY. PH JD (who Houston cut) and let him strike out. Bromine could have attempted a bunt, and IF it didn't work, better than a strike out. Davis (who also left runners in the 8th)and Kinsler flubbed up. SO, Jimmie LEE-Lands, I am so sorry that I EVER bad mouthed you.
You were the man.

 

[themuzzer]

We have a Knebel appearance .....Never heard of him but I'm sure he's taking a SS spot on the roster.
