2019 DETROIT TIGERS Thread
I realize that it's going to be a tough year but does anyone have an explanation as to why they have a 21 year veteran of the minors, mexican and Indy leagues that had a cup of coffee with LA back in 2010 and hasn't played in two years on the roster?
This dude https://www.baseball-reference.com/p...indsjo01.shtml I just saw him listed on the roster page at ESPN - hopefully it is just an error! :crying: |
Like the move to sign Josh Harrison on a one year deal. If he has some success you can flip him and if he doesn't you are not on a long term hook.
|
Are any of you stunned that Jose Iglesius remains unsigned? Wonder why?

Maybe a clerical error. Maybe they signed his kid? :p |
Candelario hits into that 3-6-3 double play that my Raccoons always hit into that I had yet to see in real action. :laugh:

Very pleased with Harrison at second.
Now, if they can just manage to hold everyone scoreless, this could be a great year! |
Great first inning for Boyd!
First pitch fastball was knocked off the wall for a triple and then he struck out the side with fantastic control. |
Boyd pitched well. That four run inning wasn't all his fault. An unfortunate slow rolloer to load the bases and Mahtook butchered a short single to clear the bases.
New SS looks pretty sharp. Unlikely to make me forget about Jose but he'll do I suppose. |
Miggy took a pitch to his right hand - ugh
Turnbull was good until he wasn't (I sense a pattern starting). Alcantara looks like he could be a bright spot in the pen - maybe. Score some runs man. Not much to look at outside of Miggy and Castellanos these last two games. Although I am hopeful about what Candelario and Stewart could do. Harrison and Goodrum may be decent contributors too. |
Moore looks good today. Really, starting pitchng has been better than I would have expected thus far.
Edit: At last! plated a few runs! Hold on boys. |
... and the bullpen is in mid season form
|
whew. Shane Greene is not very closer-like but 2-2 is 2-2!

I think so. I know he gets hit too but I'd almost rather have Jiminez close. His fastball moves pretty well and he can over power batters at times. But what do I know. |
Up 3-1 in the ninth! I am stuck listening to my least favorite broadcast team (waldman & sterling) because my MLB.tv Tigers game is blacked out due to proximity to the evil empire.
Last night, I had to listen to Waldman blathering about what a great opportunity this series is for the Yankees young pitchers because 'Detroit is still a major league lineup, they can still challenge you but what a great chance for success for the young guys' :-) loving the game tonight! |
It's way too early but I'm used to the starting pitching already being a disaster by now. Feeling pretty good!
Fifth save for Greene - dude is not a closer. He will burn us and bad. (have to keep the standard Detroit pessimist flame going) |

I'll settle for a team that plays hard and keeps improving. It is very nice to see the team off to such a good start. Crazier things have happened.
