Might as well win the series.

Time for the Sunday lineup with Ramon Santiago at short.  Put Timo Perez in left, he might run into one.

Figured tork needed a day off. He has had a rough week. Castro hitting 5th is chefs kiss.

Isaac Paredes called up by the Rays.

I looked up Perez’ numbers with the Tigers.  .389/.427/.533 in 96 PAs.  He’d be getting intentionally walked if he were dropped into the current lineup.

Yes, another masterpiece.

I agree that it is time to give Baddoo another chance- either that or send him to Toledo.  But now we have 3 left fielders out there again, I would keep Hill in center and sit one of the other guys.

Once Miggy gets 600 doubles I think he will sit more often allowing more player rotation.

Old manager trick: sit a regular down, bat the replacement in his spot in the order.

I doubt Hinch is managing to the stat.

Old Leyland trick.

At some point the Tigers are gonna have to not have the worst DH, who also has zero power, in the league in their lineup...unless they dont care about competing for the division.

Grossman hit on the hand, looks like he is staying in the game for now but surely after he runs the bases we will find out that he has been taken out of the game and has a broken hand cause that's just the type of luck the TIgers organization has had with hit by pitches.

I had the same thought, looked like it got him pretty good too

**looks up 2023 MLB mock drafts for the first time in 2022…**

Brieske sure sounds like a gamer. Hope he has a bright future

[Dtrain72]

Yep, Robbie's out.  Can't take much more of this season.  And it really amazes me at how productive Baez is offensively when he literally swings at 98.3% of his pitches.

[Sports_Freak]

Maybe Buehler will have an off-day?

[Archie]

Hinch leaves an outfielder on the bench so the back up catcher can play LF.  I will never under this thinking.

[Dave Christian]

It's getting to the point that I don't even expect to score with the bases loaded.

Sad.

BABIP gods must have money on the dodgers today

[Dtrain72]

Yep, cant take much more of this season indeed....or Candy.
