DeTrOiT TiGeRs BaSeBaLL

For me, that occurs when the Red Wings are no longer involved. At least until the Stanley Cup Finals.

 

Ive been almost in amazement with the baseball they have been playing. It's been nearly perfect in every aspect. They are hitting, pitching, fielding and throwing. Very nice surprise after that horrible Spring.

 

Miggy can hit...

 

Tigers win 8-5 and improve to 6-0!

If Cabrera is still not 100% from the surgery and this is what he can do, then he is going to have a MONSTER year!

 

At 6-0, these 2015 Detroit Tigers have the potential to make a run at the '84 Tigers (their start below).

Cabrera is certainly off to a fantastic start. The whole darn team is playing well. Health is the issue with Miggy or anyone. It's a long grind and if he can stay healthy and stay the ball like he is... im tempted to think another run at a Triple Crown. It is very early tho.

 

I didn't realize the Tigers had the weekend off. I did hear they got some cleaning done today though

Tigers lucky to be down 2-0 to Pittsburgh.

 

5-1 Pirates, 8th.

 

JD Martinez just hit a 9th inning HR to make it 5-4.

 

and that is the final score. Pirates win.

 

I dont get Sanchez, this guy is lights out through 5 or 6 and then the wheels fall off. Not sure if this is stamina or mental. this guy pinpoints pitches with the best of them and then he turns into Nate Cornejo. Hes got all the talent in the world but something isnt right here, this has happened since he got here. Ill be honest Im clueless as to what the problem is. he doesnt lose velocity, his compusure is excellent yet.......I wish I could get on here more, its a pain in the ass for me right now. I have to left hand the mouse and type lefthanded. and Lulz Wimbledon and tennis suck my ball sac

 

Night game against the Pirates... first pitch, 7:05.
