Detroit Tigers Ongoing 2016 Thread

7-5 Tampa. Top of 9th

Shane Greene made his first rehab appearance, throwing 42 pitches over three scoreless innings. He allowed just two hits and a walk while striking out five. Beau Burrows came on and pitched five more innings of no-run ball

The Mud Hens lost a close one on Friday night in painful fashion, allowing the game-winning run to score on an error. Matt Boyd pitched a solid six innings and struck out nine batters while allowing six hits, two runs, and a walk.

Melvin Upton hits game winning homer. Brother Justin? Collects Major League leading 64th strikeout.

Ausmus? Sits on his hands and keeps taking orders from the top to play J-Up..no matter what. (Tell us again Brad how contracts don't influence who you play!)

Boring repeat repeat repeat repeat.... tell us something we don't know.??

What have been nice to have seen Maybin at the start of the season.

 

[Lions=TeHsUcKs]

Is maybe a sign that Fulmer can be our 3rd starter? Hopefully? Doubt it right?

No doubt.

Such names!!!!!! lol.....who would do that?

 

[burfboy]

Holy shit Upton just struck out....

Hey I have a question, do you consider K-Rod a Hall of Famer?

 

[BUD]

Fulmer is 3-1 The Tigers stopped their 1 game losing streak

 

[aar000n]

Who else can we play other than upon? He cant field well and he is just reaching historical bad numbers batting. 2 more k's today.

Hey I have a question, do you consider K-Rod a Hall of Famer?

Maybe.

Depends on how much career he has ahead of him. Two more years as a decent closer and a couple as an eighth inning or short setup guy, he could be.

Barring injury he'll pass Cy Young in games pitched later this summer. (He's 33rd Alltime right now.). He'll need to pass Lee Smith in saves though. And he'd need to be a closer for a couple more years to do that.

Rivera and Hoffman are the only relief sure things imo.

Moya?

Another question:

Can the Twins put pressure on our '03 Tigers for worst AL team ever?
