Let's go. Tank for Tork is over. Tanking will be hard with just 60 games. 23-37 through 60 in 2019

Nice!

Question, when is the tanking over with? I'm guessing we have another couple years of this?

No reason to try to win this year, 21 could be interesting but no minor league season sets us back I feel

Tigers season picking up where they left off last year. 2020 Detroit Tigers 502811600

Dang... Lucky to get out of that with only 2.

by AvgMSUJoe Fri Jul 24, 2020 7:20 pm

Got one back...

by **kingstonlake** Fri Jul 24, 2020 7:39 pm

Boyd’s a pretty good athlete. Can’t he hit for Romine?

by **kingstonlake** Fri Jul 24, 2020 7:43 pm

I may have mentioned it before but...... Matt Shepard sucks.

by **WhiteBoyHatcher** Fri Jul 24, 2020 7:55 pm

Yes, yes he does.

The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It’s been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt, and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game, is a part of our past, Ray. It reminds us of all that once was good, and that could be again. Oh people will come, Ray. People will most definitely come.

by **kingstonlake** Fri Jul 24, 2020 8:19 pm

Field of dreams?

by **steveschneider** Fri Jul 24, 2020 8:29 pm

Not sure I can handle 0-60

by AvgMSUJoe Fri Jul 24, 2020 8:30 pm

So yeah, Shep does suck. Did Impembla get a gig yet?

Sure you can. You've had a taste of the alternative. This is something to turn on on a Tuesday night or sleepy Sunday afternoon. Baseball is baseball... Nice to win, but a good waste of a couple hours regardless.

by AvgMSUJoe Fri Jul 24, 2020 8:32 pm

Oh wait another bomb... Forget that.

Boston maybe?

Castellanos should be legally banned from using Eminem as walk up music. You forced a trade out of town I’m sorry I know it was for the best for everyone but those are the rules

by **steveschneider** Fri Jul 24, 2020 8:42 pm

Tigers are a disgrace. They need to fire Avilla, Gardenhire and do a splash signing. Ever since Ausmus hire they’ve been trending down.

He’s doing Red Sox radio.

It's sad the best the tigers can do is Matt shepherd.

I’m betting against the tigers every game

Rod and Mario were elite. It’s all down hill from there.

Pretty good bet you will at least 35 if not 40 times

by **Floyd Robertson** Sat Jul 25, 2020 8:13 pm

Tigers win, they're on a roll now.

by **kingstonlake** Sat Jul 25, 2020 8:40 pm

Boom Jacoby!

I saw it mentioned on Twitter he was supposed to be laying down a bunt lol.

by aualum06 Sat Jul 25, 2020 9:14 pm

1-1. Let's go

by **DWags** Sat Jul 25, 2020 10:07 pm

Magic number 31

by aualum06 Sun Jul 26, 2020 4:17 pm

2-1. Come on!

by **kingstonlake** Sun Jul 26, 2020 4:19 pm

Ride the wave! We playoff bound!

by **kingstonlake** Sun Jul 26, 2020 4:25 pm

Better start hitting though.....

by **Watch Out Pylon!** Sun Jul 26, 2020 8:18 pm

World Series bitches!

60-game season.....something truly odd is going to happen so why not Detroit making a run to the playoffs?! It's a better team than last year with the addition of serviceable MLB players like Cron, Schoop, Romine, Maybin, Nova. I've also been impressed that Gardy seems to keep a clubhouse focused regardless of talent or record. The next two games will be telling as it gets to the 4th and 5th starters...Fulmer (Alexander and the pen) and then Agrazal. The bats are going to have to do a bit more.

The talent and lack of depth on this team gets exposed in a 162-game season. But 60 games when 16 teams will make the playoffs. Play some competitive and fundamentally sound baseball, catch a break of two along the way, someone like Turnbull, Norris or Fulmer get hot, get to the point where they can add Mize or Manning from the taxi squad without costing a year of service.....this season has me oddly hopeful and there is no way any of this would be possible in 162-games.

So why not?! .500 ball and the playoffs....I'm in.

I think Garcia will follow Fulmer tomorrow. Alexander went multiple innings yesterday
