Detroit Tigers Ongoing 2016 Thread

[themuzzer]

Twins 17 Rangers 4 in the 6th inning.....WTF?

 

[Iffster]

Rajai Davis in LF or Justin Upton?

 

[Iffster]

Detroit's 5 thru 8 hitters...highest BA at game time = .228. (And Cabrera on bench).

Cleveland just DFA'd their utility player, Michael Martinez. He was batting .283. hhhmmmm

Id rather have our scrubs.

Martinez is having a career year with that .306 OBP.

I woulda traded them Lowe though.

Swept a two game series against Miami, going for the 4 game sweep of the Rays.....Roar!!!!!!!

Miggy sitting cuz he isn't hitting lefties well?

Ausmus said he was going to sit Saturday or Sunday. He chose Saturday because Miggy hits today's starter (Archer) pretty well.

That's a better way of putting it. Lol

 

[Howie115]

Wow, that top of the 1st was pathetic.

 

[broncosmitty]

Rays have 5 hits, two of em bunts, against Pelfrey thru six.

Really gotta push some runs across. Can't waste his best start of the year.

 

[broncosmitty]

OMG was that Moya!?!

This guy is the worst outfielder in baseball but that works.

 

[Howie115]

Tigers are swinging at a ton of bad pitches today. Archer could have walked 6 or 7 if they gave him a chance to.

 

[Iffster]

Moya....poor outfielder, striking out exactly once every 3 ABs. But when your option is going to Mike Aviles, Moya gets to start most every game.

 

[Iffster]

LOL. I have to go with Vice's idea to get rid of Kinsler and replace him with Dixon Machado.

Tampa 1 / Kinsler's Hustle 1

 

[Iffster]

Upton with a big hit!!! Still a long way to go before he considers opting out of contract after next year.

 

[Iffster]

Aviles bats for Moya. Do you know that Moya is 2 for 4 against lefties this year? But they want Aviles in for defense. Don't ask me why.

 

[themuzzer]

Been on the treadmill watching all pissed off until the 8th and 9th inning......About time those bats woke up.

 

[Iffster]

Tigers are currently tied for a Wild Card spot.
