This is grim watching them snatch defeat from the jaws of victory on a daily basis.

Second half was more like 1:45. Must have been all the runs the 'stros scored.

Javy has a legit chance at scoring the fewest runs in a season, by a person with enough PA to qualify for a batting title.

Tough stretch but still enjoying watching this team despite the recent bullpen issues. Flaherty put in a strong start, Torkelson got off the schnide, and a favorite of my son and I - Akil Baddoo was called up and had a pinch hit triple.
Souring on Wenz quickly though.

Pleased to see that Maeta was placed on the IL with a "viral infection". I had assumed that he had 'developed' a 'blister' while 'throwing on the side' but a 'virus' will do for now.

A second HR from Torkelson wins the game last night. Hope that he has turned the corner.

Tork's on a nice run. 8-game hitting streak, and an OPS of .993 in the seven games before last night.
I mean, I think his season high-water mark is still .670, but there's miles to go as yet. Even Javy may yet prove usef—no, wait. I think that counts as trolling. My bad. |

Why doesn't Detroit give Tyler Holton more innings?
In 83 MLB games, he has a 0.875 WHIP. This are HoF stats. |

Great AB from Torkleson in the tenth. Good things coming!

The Tigers highlight of this game was Jason Benetti bemoaning that his best friends were inanimate objects.
Same, Jason. Same. ![]()

Tigers rocked tonight! Tarik looked top notch, and let’s hope the offense has awoken for good.

Happy to see Colt Keith progressing. That's all I have at the moment.

Javy, through 150 ABs: .207/.233/.280 1 HR, 21 RBI. 5 BB, 32 whiffs.
Seriously, is he hurt or something? He sucks, but he shouldn't suck this much. |

That was the greatest baseball season I ever watched. So many role players...and just the right sprinkling of stars.

As soon as the Tigers change out of the tighty whities they suddenly start hitting?
