Motor City Sonics Posted June 20, 2023 Posted June 20, 2023 Okay............how much longer are they going to hit Maton 5th? It's ridiculous now. He shouldn't even be here right now and he's a rally-killing machine. Somebody, do something ! Quote

RandyMarsh Posted June 20, 2023 Posted June 20, 2023 I'd actually like to see Miggy move up to 5th on days he is playing. He is starting to hit again but unfortunately many of it is with the bases empty, batting 5th would hopefully allow them to take advantage of his singles and doubles with runs. Quote

I would be curious why the Tigers think Maton is a good fit in the 5th spot. They aren’t stupid, but this has been a curious move. Quote

Expand Yeah I don't get it, earlier in the year when he was hitting for power despite the low average I understood it since A. nobody was hitting on the team and B. theoretically that power would be more useful with guys on base but since then the power has disappeared and some other guys have started hitting better.

gehringer_2 Posted June 20, 2023 Posted June 20, 2023 well you might as well use him - if he doesn't straighten out we've got bigger problems than losing one lead to the Royals. 1 Quote

Crazy Cat Gentleman Posted June 20, 2023 Posted June 20, 2023 WOOP WOOP! nice bounce-back for Lange after yesterday. Quote
gehringer_2 Posted June 20, 2023 Posted June 20, 2023 Lange managed to throw a few FB for strikes. That's what he needed to do. Quote

Expand I really think a closer has to close. It messes with their heads when you use them any other way. You blow a save then get back out there and nail the next opportunity down.
