@Lynn_Henning You should break down the draft failures in Tigers Intelligence.

The Tigers took Jace Jung at 12-overall in the 2022 MLB Draft. One slot later, the Angels took shortstop Zach Neto, who is 25 and already sits at 13.2 career WAR. The Tigers' past drafting and Latin American failings explain nearly all of their current headaches.

@CodyStavenhagen 4 Ks for Tork.

Ballgame. Angels 10, Tigers 6. Another day, another series of self-inflicted mistakes. The Tigers have lost 17 of their past 20 games. Record: 21-34

@EatEmUpPod @aurban91 @hostedbyjhall Are you tired of the cheerleading going on in the Tigers radio and television booths. Examples include, “Workman hasn’t made an error yet.” Or, “Wenceel had a good swing last week.” Or, “Mckinstry’s hitting in bad luck.” Do they think we’re morons? Good grief, tell us the truth.

☎️ CALL FOR LISTENER QUESTIONS📞 @hostedbyjhall & @aurban91 brace for your questions about this team for this week's show. - Troy Melton returns - Kenley Jansen opens a meatball shop - What would selling actually look like? - Max Clark soon? - Despite it all, Kevin Mcgonigle.

@EatEmUpPod We’ve earned the abuse. Too bad the Tigers won’t repeat the Cleveland comeback from last year.

If you’re curious, Guardians fans are frothing at the mouth and can’t spit out jokes about the Tigers fast enough.

@Lynn_Henning It got ominous when Hinch had to go to Jansen in the 8th. Finnegan and his 9 million has been another disappointment.

Tigers score few enough runs to allow a bullpen with just enough vulnerability to lose a game as they lost this afternoon in the ninth with two out and an 0-2 count on Colton Howser at Camden Yards.

@EatEmUpPod The Zack Short tanking strategy.

@EatEmUpPod Harris goes before Hinch. Hinch as no chance with this group. And don’t blame injuries on this mess.

That’s as bad a loss as you will ever see. In a game where the Tigers needed to show any sign of life in the win column, it’s another kick in the head.

@bobsansevere Not likely. Addison part 2.

His money to spend how he wants but the Vikings gotta be hoping he makes better decisions on the field.

@IYKbaseball Perez, Rogers and Short and time to abort.

The fact Zack Short is still playing makes me not watch..

@bobsansevere Pick a lane and stop equivocating.

People think because I criticize a Democrat, it means I support and defend Trump. Hardly. Never been a Dem or Republican. Too much lemming-like behavior on both sides. And for those who think I ignore Trump’s vile posts, I wrote this after Rob Reiner died: “What Trump wrote after the murders of Rob Reiner and his wife was repugnant. Sadly, so is the reaction of those who are wishing for Trump’s demise. Presumably, they don’t realize they also are repugnant.” So don’t assume because you make an ass out of you — and just you.

@rogcastbaseball It wasn’t counted because all teams have pitching injuries.

Olson, Verlander, Skubal, Melton, Jobe, Beau Brieske. Looks completely different with actual pitching health, too. Not sure why that wasn’t counted.

@Miggysbat Please explain Tork, Zmac, Perez, Veirling, Jones, Keith and Rogers. Injuries are a convenient excuse for bad hitting roster construction.

Yeah, having half your roster on the IL and subsequently losing 15 of 17 will do that. 🙃

@cmccosky Gross

LHP Drew Sommers is here. He will either be the 27th man tomorrow or replace Brant Hurter. No word yet whether Hurter will need an IL stint.

@rogcastbaseball @MarcRyanOnAir The Tigers, when healthy, are poorly constructed.

.@MarcRyanOnAir just said something that is interesting. The Lions get a pass for the injuries and grace but the Tigers do not, by the fans.

@EatEmUpPod I’ve created a drinking game. One beer for every base running mishap, fielding error, and a Tork (3 strikeouts in a game).

We are all Charlie Brown watching this team every night.

@bythewaybro Lions trainer has dual roles

If Hurter indeed needs an IL stint after being pulled today, that would be the 17TH player on the 40-man roster to currently be on the IL. - Brieske - Horn - Hurter (pulled today) - Jobe - Madden - Melton (Returning Sunday) - Miller (MiLB IL) - Olson - Skubal - Smith - Verlander - Baez - Sweeney - Torres - Carpenter - Cruz (MiLB Rehab) - Meadows

@EatEmUpPod If a Burch fell in the forest with nobody around, would he make a sound?

Record and performance aside, the number of injuries to this team has been absolutely staggering this season.

@BrianFisherLORW Copp will fit right in next year.

Like every game this series, the Griffins have had the majority of the Grade A opportunities. Grand Rapids is struggling to finish on those chances though

@EatEmUpPod Horrific

Your Detroit Tigers have just been swept by the rival Cleveland Guardians in a four game series at home. Their record is 20-31. If you could describe this season in one word, what would it be?

@TonyPaul1984 Good vibes to start the season. Season ends in May

Game 51: Guardians 3, #Tigers 1. Detroit is 20-31. Tigers get swept for the fifth time this season, and are in last place all by themselves. Player of the game: Casey Mize.
