Expand Hinch outsmarted himself on that one - no question. I can accept that but at least take the bunt sign off when he is clearly lost on the first attempt and give him half a chance to hit. Quote

Maybe he is still out on the plate appearance, but the bunt was obviously a bad decision on 0-1 after the first pitch. Quote
casimir Posted April 13, 2024 Posted April 13, 2024 Tigers down by 1, but the no hitter is still intact. Quote
casimir Posted April 13, 2024 Posted April 13, 2024 Looks at lineup graphic on TV. Baez .282? What?! Oh, wait, that’s OPS. Ok, that makes sense now. 1 Quote
AZTigersfan Posted April 13, 2024 Posted April 13, 2024 Man it’s getting harder and harder to defend Tork when he keeps turning in ABs like this. Quote

Dtrain72 Posted April 13, 2024 Posted April 13, 2024 Like I said last week, Keith will be hitting ahead of Tork by the end of April Quote

chasfh Posted April 13, 2024 Posted April 13, 2024 Twins really struggling with PFP today! Also, as much as I hate the whole sliding-into-first-base idea, this was a situation in which it actually made sense to do it. Quote
gehringer_2 Posted April 13, 2024 Posted April 13, 2024 (edited) Wood-Rich threw a 93 mph middle-middle FB to almost every hitter that inning and not one barreled it up - all fouled off. Edited April 13, 2024 by gehringer_2 Quote

Expand Keith's basic approach at the plate is already better than Torks...Colby at least looks like he knows what he's doing and looking for, whereas Tork looks like he's stuck with a fart in an elevator. Maybe it wont be by the end of April, but at some point this season, Keith will be hitting ahead of Tork. Quote
