Detroit Tigers, Volume 10: The Tommy Bridges edition

Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 10: The Tommy Bridges edition

Well, this one got out of hand in a hurry. With a day/night with the Yankees tomorrow, let's not burn the bullpen to the ground tomorrow. We've already got Mike Fiers & Sandy Baez starting tomorrow's games. We're going to need all the help we can get tomorrow.
 
Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 10: The Tommy Bridges edition

Apparently Drew VerHagen is starting this afternoon’s game, and Fiers is going tonight.

Also tonight is the MLB Draft. The Tigers pick #1. The expected pick is Casey Mize, a pitcher from Auburn. The book on this kid is nice command of his secondary pitches. Big strikeout/walk ratio. Something like 153-12 this year. We’ll see.
 
Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 10: The Tommy Bridges edition

7-1 Yankees in the 4th.

Yup. Drew VerHagen sure figured everything out in Toledo, didn’t he?
 
Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 10: The Tommy Bridges edition

4-1 Red Sox in the 3rd. They've plated all four runs this inning, nobody's out, and there's no signs of letting up on Hardy tonight. This could be a 7-8 run inning before they're done.
 
Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 10: The Tommy Bridges edition

Somehow Hardy keeps it to a 4-run inning.
 
Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 10: The Tommy Bridges edition

Buck Farmer comes in and gives up a bomb on the first pitch.

MARTIN!!!!

5-0, 6 batters in.
 
Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 10: The Tommy Bridges edition

Now look, Boyd. I know everybody else on this ****ed staff has been getting bombed in this park. But you don't need to see how fast you can give back a 5-0 lead.
 
Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 10: The Tommy Bridges edition

7-2 win tonight. No Giant Tiger tonight, since the game got over an hour ago.
 
Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 10: The Tommy Bridges edition

Artie Lewicki pitching this afternoon? Okay, I guess we're gonna lose 2 of 3 from the Tribe, then.
 
Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 10: The Tommy Bridges edition

For someone who just heard about the goose, I'm sick of the goose. I'm happy the goose was rehabbed and released back into the wild, but let it go already!
 
Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 10: The Tommy Bridges edition

I've been sick of the **** goose for two weeks! Even last week they went and dug up Nate Robertson and asked Eight Run Nate about how it compared to GUM TIME!! back in 2006. Because obviously chewing gum and a ****ing goose were clearly the reasons we were in contention.
 
Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 10: The Tommy Bridges edition

JFC, Drew VerHagen sucks. He should not be on a major league roster.
 
Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 10: The Tommy Bridges edition

Martin **** near hit that to the beer vendors in the concourse.

No homer light. I'm still ****ed at VerHagen.
 
Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 10: The Tommy Bridges edition

Yeah, I think this is going to be a recurring problem for a long time. 35 years old, and 5 years left on that contract at $30+/year after this year. Woof.

And this nonsense about Blaine Hardy going to the bullpen when Liriano and Zimmerman return is just that: absolute nonsense. Send Zimmerman to the bullpen. Hardy should stay in the rotation for as long as he's getting the job done. If he starts getting shelled, we can adjust accordingly.
 
Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 10: The Tommy Bridges edition

He might not get to 3,000 hits. That club might be closed for a while.
 
Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 10: The Tommy Bridges edition

Twins are doing their Bad News Bears impression in the 8th inning. The RF tried to throw the ball to the plate. He only was off by about 25 feet. The ball wound up in the camera well.

5-2 Tigers, bottom 8. Let's see if Sugar Shane can turn this into a disaster in the 9th.

JONES!!!!

3-1, bottom 7

Molitor went to the mound, but left Lance Lynn in the game one batter too long. He just got burned.
