It seems that every time the Tigers start to put something together, it falls apart. I am starting to get a case of whiplash *WALL*

 

Friday 8/22 8:10pm
Robbie Ray (L) Tigers
@ Twins - Tommy Milone (L)



Friday 8/22 8:05pm
Yordano Ventura (R) Royals
@ Rangers - Colby Lewis (R)

Not sold on Ray yet. I think he needs more time in Toledo. Hope he has a great game of course, but I'm worried already. Tigers having to bring up 2 spot pitchers because of double headers and that 19 inning affair is still leaving its mark.

...and I might add. With the last 2 starts by Porcello and Price, that bullpen ought to be very well rested.

Kinsler's lead-off HR was the first Lead-off HR by the Tigers this season. 1-0.

 

Obviously, Ray read my post and made me eat my words...so far. Nice 1st inning for him.

 

Well that blows many goats. 3 doubles, a single and a HR and only 1 out...warm up the bullpen, please.

 

This game is toast.

 

Detroit is coming back. Now down only by a run Det 5 - Min 6.

 

I actually gave up on the game. Shame on me. KC up 5-3 on Texas in the 8th.

 

Mariners lead the Red Sox in the ninth.

 

Bloody hell!!!

The Tigers finally score a few runs and they can't pitch to save their post season lives. *WALL* *WALL* *WALL* *WALL* *WALL* *WALL* *WALL* *WALL* *WALL* *WALL* *WALL* *WALL* *WALL* *WALL* *WALL* *WALL* *WALL* *WALL*

Twins win it 12-4. Tigers are in a tail spin.

 

Max Scherzer - David Price - Rick Porcello - Batting Cage Pitching Machine - MLB 3-Position Rubber Batting Tee

That pitching rotating is just not going to cut it!

 

Here comes the bullpen. Im scared.

 

Thanks Castellanos.

 

8-6 Winner's. Glad to see Verlander is back.
