Anyone else think Cisnero deserves a day off today?

He's worked very hard.  I think he should have every day off.

Eduardo has been on a roll the last few starts.    That's gonna be great because with him pitching so well, we'll be able to get two Not Top 10 prospects from some other team that we won't see until 2026.

Then we can pump them and talk about how much depth is in the system.  

[gehringer_2]

ERod lowers his WHIP to 0.84 for the season.

[Tigerbomb13]

Ugh. So much for that

[Dtrain72]

Whelp

[gehringer_2]

Not much of an effort by Maton and another weak throw by Baddoo.

Really it was Baddoo's weak throw. Get it there on less than 2 hops and they have a good chance to get Mateo.

To hell with A.J. Hinch.      E-Rod was rollin'   Not at his pitch limit.  

 

But the book says....................

 

Overrated manager.   

 

[Hart]

That's on Baddoo.  No urgency and poor effort.  

[Hongbit]

Really bad job by baddoo

[Hongbit]

That was a gift for them to send the runner there’.  He should’ve been out by two steps.

I agree with this too.  Hinch is annoying.  

[Shinzaki]

I remember guys like Lolich throwing 20+ complete games a year...would Rodriguez's arm fall off if he threw one?

[Motor City Sonics]

Looks like Dwight Schrute's cousin walked a guy.

He was probably trying not to do what he usually does, which is make a totally out of control throw, but he waaaay over compensated.

[Hart]

It sucks when you see all out effort from a guy like Vierling with that slide and then Baddoo blow it for the team with effort like that.

Well, E-Rod is currently in bubble wrap in the clubhouse.  

[gehringer_2]

Dan defending Maton not being closer to the line, but that ball wasn't hit hard and Maton still didn't cover it.

Can Malloy play left?     I'm thinking no, but he probably could have made a better throw. 

[Hongbit]

Baddoo’s nickname should be Toledo.

But is Maton an actual thirdbaseman or a second baseman playing third.     You know, Al Avila with 6 years of high draft picks and the team does not have a viable third baseman that'll we see anytime soon  (Sorry Colt Keith, you're destined for the OF)

Baddoo had TJ before he came to the Tigers and I've always wondered if because he's "just an outfielder" if he didn't do the really hard rehab work a pitcher does to bring it all the way back. 

[Motor City Sonics]

Time to redeem yourself, Baddoo

Dan says Hinch's arg against playing the line is that he doesn't want to defend foul ground. Well, if your 3b is not a 3b and doesn't have great 3b range, than maybe you *aren't* defending foul ground playing the line?
