Good lord. Missed foul pop for the third out, and they get a 2-run double right after. This week has been one of the worst defensive stretches I've ever seen.

 

[Howie115]

Rodriguez can't close anymore. What utter trash.

"Tigers desperately trying to hold onto this win"... that sounds familiar.

Tigers are 9-8......Guess how many teams have given up more runs then they have......

I wouldn't even wait till the dead line, time to find some bull pen help, it should be obvious to management back in the winter let alone after the first month of the season.

Iggy, Miggy, Jones and JD all being on the DL is really gonna be rough.

No doubt, were going to be losing some serious ground over the next few weeks.

MINNEAPOLIS -- Jim Adduci is expected to land at the airport about two hours before game time, which means he'll have only brief introductions with his new teammates before starting as the Detroit Tigers right fielder. Adduci's contract was select...
Tigers lineup: Jim Adduci starting (if he gets here in time)

This is kinda becoming what the Lions season was last year, to me.

Just has to play out before anything can really happen. And the Lions have another one of those coming up.

Oh well.

Our pitching staff also leads all of MLB in walks. Really hard to believe we are 9-8, and can possibly win two series on this road trip.

Pretty much why I picked them for 3rd in the AL Central. No margin for error when injuries hit, given our suck-ass minor league system.

 

[Howie115]

Alex Avila, though... Dayum!

I'm kinda hoping the bottom falls out with this current AAA team they'll be running out there.

Chris Ilitich can sharpen his oversized pizza cutter and we can get rid of some worthless ingredients.

 

[themuzzer]

Adduci has been on the team for only a few hours and has done more then most of the starters have all year....

 

[themuzzer]

When you bat through the lineup in one inning good things happen, whats the over/under on Detroit blowing this 7-1 lead.

 

[Howie115]

Thank God for the Twins when your own team is forced to play a bunch of bums.

Big Game needed by Zimmerman

 

[Lions=TeHsUcKs]

Upton should be batting 4th in the lineup. Enough of old man V-Mart at the cleanup spot. Also Zimmerrmann is still trash. Huge surprise.

 

[themuzzer]

BIG BASH BY J-UP!!!!!!
