With senstivitity to Meadows condition, he can't be considered part of the Tigers immediate future. You have to work under the assumption that he won't be available the rest of the year and beyond. And even if does come back, will his power ever return to Tampa form? Hard to see it now.

Dead last in the AL in slugging and OPS. 6 homers total; only Cleveland is worst but they have a higher slugging due to doubles and the most walks in the AL.

I have to wonder if all this losing affects player development.

Hinch looks like he is going to cry

They could have spent a little money on the bullpen to make this team more presentable. But they didn't. The offense is about as bad as last year when it comes to slugging...once again they have no power. Thank you Chris.

Tigers had 3 baserunners after the 4th; The Jays hit 4 solo home runs.

Riley Greene has struck out on more than 1/3 of his plate appearances.

Manning gave them 6 functional innings. Offense has not cashed in when given chances.

2 balls over 105 MPH; 400 feet each. Jays now lead.

Carpenter has been snakebit...has two huge barrels and 400 footers.

That was a barrel...but only a solo homer:

Manning is getting tattooed here....

Swing decision is the new launch angle.

And we have ownership who let this happen in both years.

i think Ilitch and Harris were ok with losing 100+ games if things went south with the returning players from 2022. We have already seen Meadows get ruled out due to an off-field mental health issue. Schoop has shown no signs of reverting to average form. Cabrera is getting his retirement tour unless he asks out. And Tork/Greene/developing young players aren't ready to carry an offense.

They need passable middle relievers.

Faedo: 4IP, 5H, 1ER, 0BB, 5K Meadows 2-6, double, run scored JHM 2 singles Nevin 2-4 Toledo wins 8-2.

Maton with the golden sombero. Haase and Baez both with terrible starts.

The major improvements at Comerica park are the new clubhouses, food options, and fences.

reads like a twitter reply to the the Tigerspr account. Good stuff.

Oh man, I feel bad for bobrob. We deserver better than this.

Lorenzen is pitching a rehab for Toledo tonight. Not sure how many starts he needs but he's next up. They will also need to call up a few guys because Wentz couldn't get out of the second. This pitching staff is going to be brutal.

I feel bad for Meadows...this is rough all around.
