I blame the Zubaz.

Although they may not deserve it, the Tigers will be back in 1st or tied with KC in a few days. For now all they have to do is win a fuckin game for christ sake.

Wow most of you fans are ridiculous. All year long, tigers are winning all we see is praise blah blah on here. They lose some games and everyone is talking about how horrible they are, how bad management is, etc. dombrowski has did more for the tigers fans than any GM they have had. He has proven he wants to win and has done everything he can besides play the field. Has he made mistakes? Definitely. As have all GMS. How quickly we forget the days where higginson is the only guy on our team that can hit, and the 100 loss seasons. Geezus. The guy just brought in one of the best pitchers in baseball and a good closer at the trade deadline. Still not enough. The tigers have not been hitting, it happens, teams go through slumps.

If the tigers win the world series 1\3 of you will still find a reason to gripe. You should hit up the lions board, there is actually legitimate reason to grumble there.

Not dumb just need to take the homer glasses off. You never see the problems with this team. And theyre are many. With our staff we should be 20 games over .500. We shouldnt be losing series to SD or toronto when they dont have encarnacion. Or losing 3 to the beat up yanks. ..........just unacceptable. But the good thing is, once the postseason starts, its anyones game....just gotta get there....glad i wasnt one of the few that thought the tigers would run away with the central....KC has a BP. Thats huge!!!!!

San diego, I agree, they are awful, the jays have a decent offense even without edwin. Several of us, (howie, myself and you) for sure said KC would challenge all year and they have and thats ok. The tigers werent expected to run away with the division and they will be fine with that rotation and offense. Detroit is a legitimate world series contender, the royals are not. I agree, the tigers pen still needs help. They would probably be ok if soria wasnt shelved right away.

Should be 2 errors. Just lazy short arming the ball in the outfield and Cabrea just jogged over and the ball went for a double. And keep beating the ball in the ground.

 

[aar000n]

Blow pen comes through AGAIN.

 

[aar000n]

Thats out with 0 doubt.

 

[aar000n]

F you blue. Calling that shit 8 inches off the plate. Time to let the players decide the game please. and they call it on Martinez just as dirty and just as far off the plate.

You can scroll back to preseason for me where i complained about our offense and BP. People think im negative or another iffy but people who have known me on here havent heard hardly any negative crap from me over the last 3 years. Even when we played poorly i stuck up for them. Thats why me n iffy didnt get along. He talked crap when we were winning....i was mad before the season ever started. Didnt care for the rajai signing. Thought he was more of a platoon guy. We didnt sign any power. We lost prince peralta and infante. I liked the prince trade now but by trading him we no longer have a deep lineup. Vmart moved up and our 5-9 is bad. People think i hate nick but i dont. On a bad team he would be fine. Learning. But we been to 3 straight ALCS and we have 2 rookies starting on our left side of infield. For a team so close to winning it all, i said we took a step back.....

I love DD...i remember the randy smith days.....but this team needed a 5 hitter and help in the BP last season.....but yet we had fans on here talking how our BP was top 5. If the BP wasnt bad last yr, we might had won it all.....but too many people jumped on the "blame prince" bandwagon and forgot how bad our BP was. Now prince is gone and i feel this team is worse than last years team....maybe built better for the postseason.....but you have to get there first.

Im worried about the future. JV's contract. Tori and vmart free agents and old. Miggy signed long term, and he will decline. Prolly lose max....hopefully price stays. So thats why im so mad. I believe the window will close after this year to win it all....not to mention how depleted the farm system is now.

 

[Cleaves2000]

Miggy down to .309. Vmart down to .319. Yes good numbers for most players. But on this team they need to be GREAT. JD down to .299. Suarez down to .238. But hey nickys up to .260.

Cleaves 2 million, again, you understand the underlying short comings of the Tigers future. No Maxie, no Victor, oh Hunter will sign for a single year, BUT........


THE FUTURE IS NOW.
