@JimCosta_ Much like the Red Wings, this team has imploded and the only blame needs to go towards ownership. Chris Illitch is not his dad and never will be his dad. You know why? His dad spent money to win. Chris only cares about being average, aka the Detroit sports special.

Tigers are 2-11 since the Skubal injury news
Now 6.5 games back in the Central. Drifting further & further away from the shore
Guardians worst starter (5.60 ERA) held them to 2 runs over 7+ IP
Valdez leaking oil. Having his worst season since 2019. Bullpen no better

@TravCarson_15 @confusion_reign maybe if he could play any defense or hit left handed pitching, or have more than one xbh hit in the last month or steal bases he could play more consistently
English
@confusion_reign Second highest AVG on the team… not his fault AJ throws him in the most random situations possible
English
He came up vs a RHP, he took a hanger RIGHT down the middle and then swung at two pitches which were balls out of the hand. The problem is NOT that he needs to face more LHP the problem is that he sucks fucking shit. If he wants to hit LHP, he should try doing hitting RHP
Jed 🇬🇧@TigersJUK
Presumably because there was 7 innings of defence left to play & he’s better than Colt? Idk the whole thing frustrates me. Extended him before a major league at bat & have basically turned him into a platoon pinch hitter. He might not get 400 PA this year.
English
@evanwoodbery @CodyStavenhagen i mean he had a good 2 first weeks and now he’s worse than ever, no reason at all to be scared of him
English
I was surprised the Jays didn't walk Colt Keith there for a right-on-right matchup with Jake Rogers (or Jahmai Jones or Zack Short). But it worked out. Louis Varland strikes out Keith to send the game to extras.
English
@DavidChang91 @Castellani2014 yea, they upheld a call that looked like a very obvious overturn
English
@westMIgolfing @clay_snowden2 if he was halfway between first and second he woulda been completely dead at first if it was caught
English
@clay_snowden2 The Royals finally have a defensive mishap, but in typical Tigers’ style, Riley retreats to first instead of staying halfway between first and second; leading to a force at second (by 20 feet).
English
Wenceel Perez has been rough in right field
The sun is doing him no favors and that wasn’t the easiest play, but it’s been bad for awhile now.
-2 OAA already this year
English
@Pharmac1zt @clarkisking1 what about the plays an average defense makes that the tigers haven’t came up with that don’t get counted as errors so they go against era?
English
@clarkisking1 Errors don’t lead to earned runs and in the course of getting 5 outs instead of 3 they give up 8
English
Detroit Tigers fans would make you think this bullpen is the worst in the league
Thomas Nestico@TJStats
Team Bullpen ERA
English
@TeamTexasFirst @TigersJUK we have the same amount of runs as they do this year lmao
English
@TigersJUK Batting too! So boring to watch them bat. They watch more strikes go right over the plate without swinging then any other team I’ve seen.
I watched an A’s game earlier today and WOW! What a hitting machine they have. How did they get so good in one year.
English
@Mich_Trumbull i guess but he’s a singles only hitter rn who plays bad defens and doesn’t steal bases, realy not a guy bringing any value at all the last few weeks
English
@HHartz1 I know his stock has been down the last week or so, but the overall season he’s been one of the fairly consistent bright spots on offense. Just no power unfortunately
English
In an attempt to be positive about this disastrous start, here are some players who are playing well thus far:
Keider
Riley Greene
McGonigle
Colt
Dingler
Finnegan
Hurter
Giving those last 2 a little leeway even after last night.

@nick_everse @Castellani2014 if u pinch hit for zach short you have nobody to play infield unless u want to move vierling to third, which he hasn’t played in 2 years
English
@Castellani2014 Can you explain to me how Vierling gets pinch hit but Zach Short doesn’t ???
English
@confusion_reign the chances of him getting the bunt down are still higher than him moving the runner any other way
English
WHY IS ZACK SHORT BUNTING WHEN HE JUST FUCKED THIS UP A FEW DAYS AGO? HE JUST SHOWED YOU HE COULD NOT DO THIS! WHY ARE YOU CALLING FOR IT AGAIN?
English
@KwanDislike @Castellani2014 yea but he’s not throwing 104, with how shaky his command has been he’s not good enough to overcome that forever
English
@Castellani2014 "There's nothing overwhelming about him" besides his fastball and slider both being excellent I guess
English
Finnegan was due for regression. Fine pitcher, but there’s nothing overwhelming about him, and his command has not been great.
English
@DanielGrizz @Castellani2014 yea detroit should be just like the red sox, who are currently 13-21 and have already fired their manager
English
@Castellani2014 Agreed. It’s too bad the Tigers couldn’t have a young live SP arm like Tolle. Unless he was still available in the second round and the Red Sox took him one pick after Detroit. Nah, couldn’t have happened.
English
What an exceptional job from Ty Madden to recover after that error! That had all the makings of a big inning.
English
@RIP2yourbookie @CadeClutch @JozzleMcCrozzle @TigersJUK u can get any guy off the triple a or double a roster or the waivers and get a guy better than trevor bauer
English
I would rather the Tigers went 0-162 than have Trevor Bauer pitch on the team.
Detroit Grit *@RIP2yourbookie
@TigersJUK All the more reason we need to sign @BauerOutage He said he would play for the minimum, he said he would donate his salary back to the organization, he would stop social media, he would pause his YT content. The guy has been blackballed by the league, and deserves a chance.
English
@HerroldWilliam @TigersJUK baseball contracts are fully guaranteed, hard to tell pitchers to be dogshit and stay healthy and make no money when they can be really good and make a ton of money to not pitch
English
@TigersJUK And if they throw their hardest, their arm is toast
English
@Miggysbat This seems to be a trend with a lot of our players getting injured each season
English
- Reese Olson
- Troy Melton
- Jackson Jobe
- Justin Verlander
- Casey Mike
- Will Vest
- Parker Meadows
- Zach McKinstry
- Javy Báez
- Gleyber Torres
Good grief, man.
Detroit Tigers@tigers
Gleyber Torres exited tonight’s game after experiencing tightness in his left side. He remains under evaluation.
English
@Spanky54Johnson @Nutzypoo_ttv random number generator, so basically just saying wherever it goes inside the par is completely random
English
@Nutzypoo_ttv Question… What is RNG? And brother me and my buddy can’t make 800 bc of this BS. For no reason at all my slider landed low middle last night and we lost. Cause yeah…. That’s where I’d want my slider to land ever.
English
You want to know why its ok that a thread of the ball touching the zone is strike?
On every pitch, you have no idea where the ball is going to go. For every pitch that barely scratches the zone I'm going to throw a ball down the dick because RNG decided my PAR outcome regardless of input.
English
@andrewhth @ShepMatt lack of shooting also causing some of the tos tho due to spacing
English
@ShepMatt Great points but IMO the TOs is what is killing this team. This kill runs or ignite for the Magic. Commit less than 13 TOs and they win by 8-10
English
I said this before the season, Pistons lost 487 triples with no Beasley/Hardaway Jr. Who was going to make that up? Robinson/Levert have given you 280. Last season, this team made 1051 three's compared to 902 this year. You may not like it, but that's the game today.
