No reason to worry, the Tigers will put up 10 runs today. We're due. Overdue?

No way, after scoring six the other day, need a good 4-5 games of 2 or less runs to hit season per game avg. So I'm guessin maye Saturday the team wins one and puts up a crooked number, followed by the proper amount of games in a row to reach to 2 per game aggregate again, rinse repeat.

Listening at work again...about to turn it the more pleasurable "mating yaks in rut" radio.

[Tigerbomb13]

This team effin sucks 

[mtutiger]

Aaand, here we go again

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

3-0. Is it still the top of the 1st?

With the pitching we were getting, our record shouldn't be this bad. I don't think many people thought our hitting would be this bad. Where's the power?

Jack’s completely cliched “analysis” becomes even more unbearable with the shitty product on the field.

Wait a bit until he starts talking over the action on the field to tell us his playing days stories from 40 years ago.

It's nauseating I admit...I'm still in the frustrated, irritated, mildy angry phase of Tiger fandom over this team, but it's getting perilously close to not caring/apathy/giving zero effs, until something drastic happens at this point, ie, they turn it around or Avila's gets the axe, or better yet, Chris sells the team;  he's taken the place of William Clay Ford in my Detroit sports fan heart.

[Tigerbomb13]

I was waiting for them to screw up that rundown. 

[Sports_Freak]

The A's aren't very good at running the bases.

[mtutiger]

Tough inning for Brieske, but that's not what bothers me. Like last night, it's the fact that there's better than 50/50 odds that this pathetic offense won't put up any runs.

I don't know how you do it.... glad I can overlay Dan/Jim on the feed.

With higher expectations comes greater disappointment.  I just enjoy the warm weather and having baseball to follow.

With this glut of "great young arms", why try to add what could potentially be the best arm in this rotation in Montaz, amiright ALLLLL?!

I would definitely take those odds.

This team is ridiculous. How in the world did AJ Hinch lead the Astros to a World Series victory? Hinch is grossly overrated as a manager.

Well, time to make James Kapreilian look like Tom Seaver....

What does Montas do for this team? Another guy to lose 3-2?

I don't think the Tigers expected 60% of their starting pitchers would all be hurt at once. And this quickly in the season. But again, pitching hasn't been our main problem.

Tell us how you REALLY feel. Want Ausmus back? Lmfao

[romad1]

I'm ready to head out to the parking lot and turn over the lighter, smaller cars.   By the 3rd inning I'll be ready to toss an F-150. 

 

[kdog]

The tigers will deliver shutdown innings to the opposing pitchers anytime they need it.

Surely you jest! The magic was in the trash cans.
