Jim Cowan Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Kevin Rand's training staff has a coat of arms and a motto in Latin, I forget what it is exactly but it loosely translates as "shit happens". 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite all the injuries, the bigger problem with the 2022 Tigers is the position players and their production at the plate. If I'm making a trade at this point, its for a bat, not a pitcher Edited May 19, 2022 by mtutiger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IdahoBert Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 E. Rod too? Jesus, these guys are as fragile as I am and I’m 70 years old. And now we have to play teams in our own division which is never a good thing anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IdahoBert Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 This is starting to feel like that 2008 season when the Tigers were supposed to score 6 runs a game and win the World Series and they ended up with 74 wins. Right now I would be happy with 74 wins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s why we wanted those guys (players on the injured list) to come here and hang out for a little bit. Give them something different.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G2 is right (per usual), they should have done it weeks ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we need a complete overhaul of the training/medical staff? I normally wouldn't look at the staff in terms of initial injuries because to a large degree a lot of guys do their own programs anyway, but Reyes, Mize and now Manning going backward on rehabs doesn't seen right. Are they shutting people down TOO completely and losing tone in other muscle groups? A guy just shouldn't strain his right quad immediately after rehabbing his left. I guess we have to wait and see what Manning's newest problem is to be more depressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm wondering how TF they are planning on stitching together a rotation for at least the next month under these circumstances.... Skubal and Faedo seem solid enough at the moment, but Brieske and Wentz both probably still need time in Toledo to figure things out and the two long men they have on the roster (Wily/Rony) aren't stretched out enough to go 5 at the moment. And that's all assuming that none of them get hurt in the short term. What an absolute mess. Edited May 19, 2022 by mtutiger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger337 Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Skubal, Faedo and Peralta get regular starts. Then you have two bullpen games where 3 pitchers pitch 3 innings apiece. Isn't this where baseball is headed anyway? That's what the Rays might do in this situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oblong Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 are other teams experiencing similar, of not as much, injury issues? I won't discount a rushed spring training. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtutiger Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 (edited) Notably, Drew Hutchison is getting the start for the Mud Hens in Game 2 today.... apparently he resigned on a minor league deal?

RandyMarsh Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Let's all remember this season when down the road it looks like we are set with our rotation in the offseason and somebody suggests a pitcher or two to go after and people turn it down cause "we are all set with pitching" or "theres no room for him.".

YES! You can never ever have too much pitching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
