Who doubted this high power offense?!

Tigers in 2021 mid season form this inning.

Sooo ready for robot strike umps.

Sweet jebus, Soto playing with batting practice fire with a meatball to JD.

Tigers closers: if it aint rough, it aint right.

La maaaaaaaag!

Okay offense, time not be awful, k thnx.

Team really needs a true lead off hitter. I know Green was propably the guy before getting hurt, but even that could be sketchy with a rookie. Maybe AJ might wanna move Baez to leadoff if sexy Rexy doesnt stop loading his pants soon.

Baddo into Grossman is a big yikes so far.

Pat Caputo may be right, it's been his opinion since last season that Manning is the best of the three young'ins.

JD def not in spring training mode.

Manning def not still in "spring training mode"...hope the other guys aren't any longer after this past weekend.

I appreciate a good defensive catcher who knows how to work with pitchers, but what if said catcher hits at/below the Mendoza line, is it really worth it having an offensive black hole in the lineup?

Team could def use a real #1 hitter at the top...watching Anderson, then Grossman, makes my hair hurt, and I dont have any.

Homeplate ump's a have been in mid season form this series...too many called strikes on balls clearly out of the zone. I'm 110% ready for the robot strike zone.

Lol, indeed, doesnt change the fact that as it stands, they are the best team in the central coming into the season, which appears to be correct so far🤷‍♂️

Sure, it's not easy to accept, but there's a reason Sox are considered one of the AL favs to win the div and make a deep playoff run, and they also arguably have two viable mvp type players in Anderson and Robert at the top of their lineup...not to mention Cease who is basically a guaranteed W pitcher against this team. Tigers just aren't there yet. I'm not gonna over react or under react to this series, but color me shocked if Chisox dont win at least 2/3 of their games against our Tigs. Luckily, there's and extra wild card this season, and imo, when it's all said and done, we'll at least be in the fight for it come Sept...but no way in hell are we taking the div from the Sox this season.

Sox are simply the better team all around, especially lineup-wise, and short of an opening day miracle, this is prob how it's going to look all season agaisnt them.
