Tork and Baez get to sit and think about their ridiculous throws.

Tork wants to know when Hinch is going to visit him in the off-season to learn what makes him tick.

A win today locks in a winning record at the end of April. 

The last time the Tigers didn’t have a losing record in April was 2017.  12-12 was the record.

The last time the Tigers had a winning record in April was 2016.  13-10.

Ironically the 47-114 2019 Tigers finished April at 11-12.

Is Skubal our best LH starting pitcher since Mickey Lolich?

I was curious so went over to Fangraphs and got LHP fWAR for Tigers since 1975.

  • Frank Tanana 18.1
  • Justin Thompson 11.2
  • Matthew Boyd 10.5
  • Nate Robertson 9.2
  • Tarik Skubal 7.7
  • David Wells 7.5
  • Mike Maroth 6.9
  • David Price 6.4
  • Daniel Norris 6.0
  • Willie Hernandez 5.7

Great list. I should have been more specific....pitchers drafted and developed by Detroit. Thompson, Robertson and then Skubal. And Skubal moving on up!

Robertson was not drafted by Detroit. Acquired in a trade for Mark Redman, and had already pitched for the Marlins before the trade. Similar to Boyd in that regard.
