At least Macron is winning

Hey mister .167 and mister .143 are up this inning!   Lets see if they can revert to norm and get on base. 

[BBFCFM]

That’s going to leave a mark:

Candy swings at ball 4 into a weak ground out #stronk

Tork's play was tough, Haase's was just a mistake/inexperience, he didn't play the wind - you have to plan for it before you start your route. An experienced OF would/should have know that ball was going to fade to the left. It's blowing pretty steady out there it shouldn't have been a surprise.

I'm just getting frustrated with the  managerial desions with the line up and even the batting order. It reminds me of a little league team where a manager plays his buddies kids and not the best players.

I don't blame Haase but the person who played him there. You're right that an experienced OF would have made that play so he should be in the game instead of a catcher playing LF.

another terrible AB from Candy. Swings at 3-1 a foot outside. The dearth of runs wouldn't be so bad if the Tigers were getting robbed on some hard hit ball, but they're just been futile.

[BBFCFM]

I was really hoping that the offense of explosion we saw in game one yesterday would be what triggered this team to get it going. Nope, not so much.

I dont have a problem with playing Haase in left.

But at some point, you have to move Tork up in the lineup. I get that he's a rookie and you're trying to protect him some, but if the goal is to win ballgames, its the right thing to do.

[romad1]

If we can't get 4 out of our 9 guys in the everyday lineup going...we is screwed.

For all the talk from AJ about how this team is based on meritocracy, he sure loves to jam an awful Candy at the cleanup spot down our throats.

I like the way you think!

You must have gone to Michigan Tech😁

they got a game against some very mediocre pitching and cleaned up. You almost wonder if a team losses it's edge at the plate after one of the those.

I'll stick with my 82 wins. Maybe even that's too optimistic, we will see.

two decent throws to 2b by Barnhart today. The earlier when they didn't get the runner was actually better.

There's an emotional element of Miggy's accomplishment... maybe a bit of a hangover from that

Maybe, but offensively, today and last night has been this team's m.o. this season, before Miggys game one yesterday...this is the norm.

Definitely something to be said for that.
