The Tigers are a very good team, we just need to get healthy. Pitching depth, or lack of, is really showing up. Once we get Skubal, Melton, Vest, Javy and Torres back, we'll go on a roll. We just need to survive the next month or so. Luckily, our division stinks. Chins up, it'll get better.

True. And we wouldn't be up 2 games to 1 without him. Its a loss, it was kinda hard to beat Cleveland 3 in a row. Win Monday and go up 3-1.

Can't blame Cade for mistakes. The guy has been a warrior. He looked like he was just totally exhausted.

Well, steal one Monday...

Old man shows a bit of what used to be. But really isnt anymore.

Cade's exhausted.

Ha ha ha. Thats against every rule Hinch has. 6 inning...71 pitches? Time for the bullpen!!!

Is Short playing just because of his RH bat? Put Kevin at SS and Lee at 3rd. And yes, get Perez out of RF. Our lineup against LH pitchers is kinda bad with our Injuries. But the pitcher injuries are really hurting, big time.

As always, you're right. Once again. Amazing. BTW, Tigers lost. Our SP was pulled after 71 pitches of 1 run ball. Genius move...Hinch looks like a moron.

Well...Finnengan did have an ERA of under 1. Once Montero was taken out, it was the right call. A 2 inning save. Unless he was planning on using Jansen for the 9th. Madness....

Riley makes superman catches but has a noodle arm. And yes, Vierling or Zach in RF over Perez...once we find a real CF. But our real problem is our BP. Game after game...good starting pitching and late blown leads. Montero was at 71 pitches...he had a bit of a trouble in the 6th, but leave him in. The worst that could happen is we lose. How did it turn out? We lost ...Montero probably could have thrown a 95 pitch complete game. Ugh...

Whatever...Tigers lost and Hinch is totally blameless. Better?

Why take Montero out? Why take Holton out? An old theory is you keep using pitchers, eventually one will give it up. And....they did.

Good job, Hinch. This loss is on our manager. The smartest man in the room syndrome .

Did you see Short's attempt? He looked like it was something he's never done before. Totally inept.

Short takes out 2 Royals.

Who do you think Hinch woulda used if we were winning? His old man closer? Or one of his AAA pitchers?

Montero deserved better. Tiger fans deserved better.

Maybe...walk Witt? The kid is going pretty hot.

Every winning streak starts after a loss.😁

They are really good at home, at least, they have a good home record. I would take those streaks in a heartbeat.

Putting the ball in play puts pressure on defenses. And I heard the Rays theory is many teams don't practice defending bunts. IDK how much they teach infielders these days, with many players being rushed to MLB. Also, bringing infielder ln to defend them creates holes for more hits. I like the concept, putting balls in play makes for more action.

I want to believe the report because I predicted Skubal would be back by July 1st. 😁

Harden has looked old, tired and worn out in these two games. He looks like a 50 year old.

A Piston win and I got my cardio in for the day!! 😆😆
