theroundsquare Posted September 11, 2024 Posted September 11, 2024 at the risk of sounding mccoskey-esque, boyd's been getting pretty good results so far. don't see that changing today Quote

NVM I see that's just his career stats vs the White Sox. Edited September 11, 2024 by TigerNation Quote

I actually saw something this game. I’ve never seen before: the same guy driving in two runs on routine infield singles, in back to back at bats. I would bet good money that’s the first time that has ever happened in over 200,000 major league games Quote

If it’s a 5 man pitching staff without jostling things up, whoever starts tomorrow gets the last game of the season. Put another way, whoever starts tonight and tomorrow get 4 starts, and the other 3 slots gets 3 starts. Baltimore isn’t the team that the Tigers are chasing. Minnesota is the team to get. I’m not worried about him starting against Baltimore or any of those 6 games for that matter. Get him the 4th start. Quote

We're actually 4 games behind the Twins because of the tiebreaker. With 17 games to go. We <could> catch them, I mean, how many games were we out 17 games ago? Around August 23rd? Quote

I don’t understand what this has to do with my comment about Skubal being pushed back a day? Sure, due to the tiebreaker the Tigers are 4 games back. They have to finish with a better record than Minnesota (or Kansas City which seems doubtful) to make the playoffs. Quote

It has nothing to do with you. It's about the Tigers catching the Twins. With 2 days off left in the season, Hinch could reset the staff to give Skubal that extra start. The Baltimore games are easily the toughest remaining games. Olson coming back means less BP days...using Skubal against them is just an idea... Quote
IdahoBert Posted September 11, 2024 Posted September 11, 2024 Mize struck out the first guy without barely being in the strike zone. I guess whatever works. Quote
Tigermojo Posted September 11, 2024 Posted September 11, 2024 They were talking about Mize's fastball velocity being down to 92 since his return from the IL but he's up to 96 today. Quote
IdahoBert Posted September 11, 2024 Posted September 11, 2024 Riley Greene homers (21) on a fly ball to right center field. Quote
RandyMarsh Posted September 11, 2024 Posted September 11, 2024 Riley bomb to make it 1-0 Tigers! Quote
IdahoBert Posted September 11, 2024 Posted September 11, 2024 Home Run Trey Sweeney homers (4) on a fly ball to right field. Spencer Torkelson scores. Jace Jung scores. Quote
Sports_Freak Posted September 11, 2024 Posted September 11, 2024 So now the Rockies are just gonna roll over, right? Quote
IdahoBert Posted September 11, 2024 Posted September 11, 2024 Hope Mize doesn’t give it all back. Quote
