6/4/24 8:05PM Tigers @ Rangers

Well, hopefully nothing serious with Flaherty.

[Tigeraholic1]

Dang Flaherty pulled after straining something.

[Sports_Freak]

The way he was stretching on the bench is the same way I stretch for my back. Just sayin'.

Pulled whilst straining the Rangers.

Either the Tigers just traded Flaherty or he is injured. If it's the latter hope it's just a cramp or something.

They probably traded him for 2 weak hitting middle infielders.

Flaherty pitched 144 innings last year. He's half way there now. He threw minimal innings the three previous seasons.

But there's something wrong with him tonight with only 60 pitches.

Being cynical and negative is my thing. Get your own thing...😅

From Dallas, Texas, The flash, apparently official, Jack Flaherty was injured at 8pm Central Standard Time, 9pm Eastern Standard Time,  some 38 minutes ago.  Relief picther Alex Faedo has left the bullpen in Dallas and will presumably be taking the oath of pitching shortly and become the next Tiger pitcher, the 2nd pitcher of this game.

Does Todd ever shut up? Where do the Tigers find these guys? Jeezzzz..

Monroe on the radio is like fingernails on a chalk board.

[casimir]

Whew!  That got a little dicey.

[Sports_Freak]

I hope Hinch doesn't plan on using a different pitcher every inning. If so, we'll lose.

And he has a name like Coĺyer that everyone misspells.

[Motor City Sonics]

Who is doing the color for the Tigers?

Faedo wasn’t exactly great at the end of his inning.  I’m not sure I’d run him out there for the 7th.

The last Ranger batter was Smith?  So, Garcia and Lowe due up?  Middle of the order?

How about some more offensive runs and then Faedo can start the 7th and then we can go from there?

[IdahoBert]

I hope they trade Flaherty for someone who knows how to hit the baseball really hard really far really often. 

[Sports_Freak]

OK...that was funny. Todd said Kelly has a heartbeat in his shin and ribs now.

Everyone misspelled it because Colyer didn’t know how to pronounce it correctly.

I like this better than controlling the zone.

[casimir]

The other thing with Faedo and the bullpen is Thursday is an off day.  Brieske really helped the cause for today and tomorrow.

Drat.  I thought this was a really good idea, but perhaps they didn’t have time to read it.
