Tip of the hat to Gardenhire.

Weird comparison being different sports but a good one

Buck Farmer is in. Well it was fun while it lasted.

by **WhiteBoyHatcher** Sun May 20, 2018 7:30 pm

Yeah I mean they're gonna lose. There is no doubt in my mind at this point, I would bet Death Roe's life on it.

Don’t worry, DR, I’ll save you.

by **WhiteBoyHatcher** Sun May 20, 2018 8:38 pm

DR is safe b/c I'm a prophet. I called that they would lose back here on Page 14. You like that Wags? Your URL links have nothing on me. King Kong ain't got SHIT ON ME!!

Holy cow. Tigers were gifted that out. No way.

Replay gets another one wrong

by **steveschneider** Wed May 23, 2018 8:51 am

Five game losing streak. Let’s hope Fulmer can end the slump.

by Guest Wed May 23, 2018 1:22 pm

Never seen that before - ball stuck in a padding seam on the OF fence.

by **WhiteBoyHatcher** Wed May 23, 2018 2:53 pm

Why not pinch run for Victor here

by **steveschneider** Wed May 23, 2018 3:45 pm

Just turned it on. If the tigers blow this one it’s my fault.

by **steveschneider** Wed May 23, 2018 3:57 pm

Did the tigers just manufacture a run? Good job by Goodrum and Jones.

by Guest Thu May 24, 2018 1:49 pm

Yep, Verlander coming into this one had a manifestly absurd ERA of 1.05 after 10 starts. Now his ERA stands at 1.08. Shame on him for falling short of his established standards.

Remember after the 2014 season when many of us -- this scribe included -- were concluding out loud that Verlander was done and his Tigers contract would surely stand as one of the great boondoggles in the annals of same? Verlander has methodically laid waste to those conclusions, and in related matters he's looking better than ever.

He's now made 16 regular-season starts since being traded from Detroit to Houston toward the end of last August's waiver period, and over that span he's allowed a total of 15 runs in 108 2/3 innings. Throw in his six playoff appearances (five starts) during their run to the belt and the title last year, and Verlander has an ERA of 1.36 in 145 1/3 innings as an Astro. That's complete dominance at the run-prevention level, and the sample size isn't exactly tiny.

Matt Shepard sucks

by aualum06 Fri May 25, 2018 7:25 pm

He is really really really bad

by aualum06 Fri May 25, 2018 8:41 pm

Iglesias is starting to wear thin

by **kingstonlake** Fri May 25, 2018 8:42 pm

Sucked getting Braves games with my Fox sports go app on the fire stick. Then realized I could use my sister's log in with Spectrum and get localed out of traverse City. Boom, tigers games in SC. Lol

It'll be interesting to see how Gardenhire weeds the roster out over the next three years.

by aualum06 Fri May 25, 2018 8:45 pm

No clue why you would even consider trying to stretch that

by **steveschneider** Fri May 25, 2018 9:27 pm

With his 6th inning single, Nicholas Castellanos now has 20 multi-hit games on the season, which is tied with J.D. Martinez for fourth-most in the Major Leagues.

It also marks his fifth consecutive multi-hit game, which is tied for the longest such streak of his career.

by aualum06 Fri May 25, 2018 9:30 pm

Meanwhile McCann bounces into another easy double play

by aualum06 Fri May 25, 2018 9:43 pm

Dave Clark gets the tie run thrown out at home instead of being content for 2nd and 3rd and one out. Moronic

by aualum06 Fri May 25, 2018 9:44 pm

Replay says safe but it was pretty clear he was out

by **kingstonlake** Fri May 25, 2018 9:46 pm

He was safe. Can't overturn that. Thought his toe was in the plate.

by aualum06 Fri May 25, 2018 9:47 pm

Thank you rondon

by **kingstonlake** Fri May 25, 2018 9:48 pm

by **kingstonlake** Fri May 25, 2018 9:48 pm

Rondon looks like an offensive lineman

by **steveschneider** Fri May 25, 2018 9:55 pm

Oh boy.

by **steveschneider** Fri May 25, 2018 10:00 pm

Good double play. My concerns about a bullpen implosion are gone.

by **kingstonlake** Fri May 25, 2018 10:03 pm

Nice win.

by aualum06 Sat May 26, 2018 4:14 pm

Stuck with Matt Shepherd again today

by aualum06 Sat May 26, 2018 6:19 pm

I love getting thrown out at home with the infield in on a ground ball
