Detroit Tigers Ongoing 2016 Thread

[Iffster]

I see Tigers are making their second tour through the Toledo bullpen as Bobby Parnell is back. I guess Bruce Rondon and Logan Kensing will be in Detroit sometime soon.

And the wheels come off.....

Come on Tigers!!!!!! Bases Juiced and No outs!!!!!!!!

 

[themuzzer]

Well screw it.

Damn....

Good news. The top 12 teams in the American League are all separated by only 6.5 games.

Bad news. Detroit is the 12th team. (At least they are ahead of the other 3.)

Old School Iffy Av....


Nice.

Takes me back to the CBS days.

Lack of clutch hitting and the blowpen .... damn. Very winnable game.

We have seen some good starts lately just wondering if the pitching is being mismanaged? I am looking forward seeing Greene and Norris.

I appear to be correct as Blaine Hardy gets yet another shot as he is called up from Toledo and Kyle Ryan is handed a Mud Hen's jersey. Logan Kensing is pitching well in Toledo, I'd guess he'd be in line for another chance. Bruce Rondon is pitching like garbage in Toledo....but I am sure he'll get another shot sooner or later. Tiger's just have to wait and make sure all the truck scales are closed between Toledo and Detroit before they call him back....or send him by tug up the Maumee to the Detroit River, drop him off near Zug Island and have a flat-bed waiting for him.

This season reminds me of 2010.

Here we go. ....bullpen time

 

[themuzzer]

Little bit of run production.....Division games are crucial....Detroit needs these AL Central games to contend and have lacked in that category.

 

[broncosmitty]

Bases Loaded, with Upton and Aviles due up.

 

[broncosmitty]

What happened to Miggy?

10-3 Zimm gets the win..

 

[burfboy]

After the game, the Tigers announced that Shane Greene had been activated from the disabled list.
To make room, the Tigers sent reliever Buck Farmer back to Toledo.
Although Ausmus didn’t say it was official, it appears that Greene will work out of the bullpen — most likely as a late-inning set-up man, stepping in for the struggling Mark Lowe.

Sale vs Pelfrey.......I'm betting the farm on the White Sox today......Chicago gets to hit 9 innings of bullpen today, no way they could lose is there?
