Detroit Tigers Ongoing 2014 Thread

[Howie115]

Another "rookie manager mistake" by Ausmus. Comes out to the mound with the score 3-1, Verlander had just fallen behind 3-0 on the #8 hitter before giving up a single, then walks the #9 hitter. He's at about 115 pitches. And Ausmus lets JV talk him into letting him stay on the mound??? You know the rest.

You're in charge Brad. I don't care how much more JV makes than you do, trust your gut and yank him.

He did the same thing with max the other day too. Left him in to face big papi. The all stars are running him.

Baseball is getting so depressing. Its like i know theyre gonna lose before it starts. Losing to the sox even sucks more. This team is boring. The OF cant hit for shit. If they do its with 2 outs and none on. Avila continues to just look lost at the plate. How holaday doesnt get more starts amazes me. Kinsler seems to pop the ball up alot. Davis just cant hit in the clutch. Sometimes i feel ajax's bat is too skinny. And we havent even spoken of the pitching staff. I stuck up for JV for awhile now, but im starting to believe he mightve lost his mojo. Pitchers get the count 1-2 then end up throwing 5-7 more pitches. Pitch counts get high then they either tire and get rocked or we go to the BP....just start drawing straws to see who comes in. Not ONE guy in the pen do i trust in a big situation....WHEW!!!! Thats all.....thats been building up.....this team took 2 steps back....better turn it around soon....the whole central is on our ass.

And now we get sale tonight. Watch the garbage our team will swing at. No patience at the plate. Too bad for max having to go against sale....wonder how long before the tigers stop giving abreu good pitches to hit. We keep challenging him and he keeps making us pay.

If we get swept, imma have to go into hiding over here. Definitely turning my phone off.

Maybe i should bet ALL my vcash on the sox tonight.

 

[Cleaves2000]

Just bet it ALL on the sox tonight. 599 big ones. Hopefully i can jinx them and get the tigers a win

I slapped 175 down on.... not really on Max and company, but on the CleevesReverse. Rip on Torii early and often, woulda cleeves!?! POG. Maybe Kinsler can surprise me tonight. He hasn't done much of anything lately.

I don't like AJ sitting. .....he is coming around lately. ......Davis is sucking. .....let AJ leadoff shake things up a bit....

 

[burfboy]

AJ a career 2 for 30 with 12 K's against sale. Brad basically protecting him. Jackson going good the past week, no need to mess with his confidence.

 

[burfboy]

Just having fun....shake it up baby.....not a whole lot of fun happening on the Field...

 

[Cleaves2000]

Ajax + sale = multiple K's

 

[Cleaves2000]

Great rajai. Way to get picked off AGAIN

 

[broncosmitty]

He's sloppy in every facet of the game. But, man is he fast.

 

[broncosmitty]

Could this be Maxie Poos first ever complete game!?! Im almost starting to think it will be.

 

[Cleaves2000]

Way to go ian. I see u have trouble with men on and less than one out

 

[broncosmitty]

Thanks Gordon Beckham. Shades of 2013 White Sox right there. (No way in hell should Cabrera get two RBI on that.)

 

[broncosmitty]

Leave him in there Brad! No Joe Tonight!

 

[broncosmitty]

Kelly comes in for defense, gets on, steals second AND scores. There's his value, off the bench. BH with a career game tonight. Seriously no need for Joe now.

 

[burfboy]

really nice job by Max last night......coming home for some home cooking sure hope it turns out to be a good thing.....gotta keep that one game win streak.going....

 

[gvsulaker82]

Great job max. He is definitely stepping up his games against the american leagues better pitchers. Lester twice and now sale.
