T’s Tigers

@whohay99 I feel like his draft status shouldn’t matter 6 years post draft. IF they were to move him they’d get a decent package back. Angels are 13-22, they probably should make deals but they’ve always been reluctant to.

@TannersTigers Bc LA won’t do it is what I’m saying. He’s got 3 years left of team control. He looks really good. You don’t trade him when he’s just starting to turn around now. LA wouldn’t make a trade like that until he’s got 1 year left. Detmers was a top 10 pick for them.

Skubal being out long term is a tough hit BUT Ty Madden could be serviceable…. If the Tigers want to explore a trade this early I’d look at Foster Griffin (WSH), Reid Detmers (LAA), or Tyler Mahle (SFG)

@NickMinton10 I’m not so sure about that

@TannersTigers No team is trading pitching this early in the year

@bezzarguy1 I’d enjoy a Robbie Ray reunion, he’s on an expiring contract which would lower his price tag. Healthy Ray is good.

@TannersTigers Detmers pitched a no hitter not too long ago and still has good stuff. How about Robbie Ray?

@whohay99 Couple years of control, pitcher on a struggling team who could want to acquire prospects. Why don’t you think it makes sense?

@TannersTigers Where are people getting Detmers from? Makes zero sense

@mfjake_ @yosbdjnd I think you’re right that we can’t option him so we’d either be stuck hoping he can turn it around OR DFA him and cut our loses.

@yosbdjnd @TannersTigers I don't think we will/can option him as well it seems he will be stuck as a bullpen arm. Hopefully he can turn it around

Thoughts on what to do with Flaherty? Soon enough Mize, Verlander and Melton will be returning to Detroit. I don’t foresee the team running a 6 man rotation and Keider has more than earned a rotation spot. Does Jack move to the pen or get DFA’d?

@didhap369 You’re not wrong. In the past I could more so live with the inconsistency because the bad games weren’t as frequent…. Now it’s more bad than good.

@TannersTigers To get good Jack sometimes you get not so good Jack

Tigers are 2-5 in games Jack Flaherty has started. He has struggled to go deep in most of his starts this season. 3.2 IP (91 P) 2.0 IP (68 P) 3.1 IP (73 P) 6.0 IP (97 P) 5.2 IP (89 P) 4.0 IP (86 P) 4.1 IP (89 P)

Tigers acquired old friend Zack Short today

Would have loved to see anyone else get an opportunity over De Jesus tbh

Happy with the production from the lineup overall. Magoo is a stud, Greene is walking more + K’ing less. Pitching is my concern especially the pen. Already plotting potential deadline additions. Our division hasn’t been great overall, it’s very very winnable.

@motownmasochist Exactly, everyone was more concerned with the offense

@TannersTigers At the start of the year, you'd think it would be the opposite.

Tigers offense ranks - 6th in OPS - 6th in OBP - 7th in SLG - 9th in AVG - 9th in runs Tigers pitching ranks - 11th in ERA - 15th in BAA - 18th in SO - 18th in WHIP - 21st in BB’s

@TheeBkap Jack Flaherty leading the MLB in walks doesn’t help. Framber also has 14 which is 12th most in the MLB.

@TannersTigers Huh I wonder why the walks stat is so bad

Spencer Torkelson

Tigers have given up TEN homers in this series…

Nathaniel Lowe, Tiger killer

Who gets to 100 career homers first?

HUGE win tonight to even the series, you got Skubal going tomorrow to win the series. Great spot to be in. Facing Brandon Sporat who has a 6.88 ERA thus far into the season BUT in his most recent start against the jays he went 6.2 innings only giving up 1 run.
