Maybe this is Tork bomb day..

 

[Cam]

Not familiar with y’all’s pitcher, but Lugo has been killing it so far this year.

Lugo struggled a bit his last game. Maybe we get to him today.. Olsen is a nice mid rotation guy.

 

[byco42]

Olson runs hot - cold. At least he's not injured or had surgery yet. But his career is young. Fangraphs stats on Olson suggest that he walks too many batters.

 

[tomdalton22]

0-3 with an ERA of 3.80

3.80 is pretty good...Probably some bad luck and lack of run support.

0-3 with an ERA of 3.80

3.80 is pretty good...Probably some bad luck and lack of run support.

1.471 WHIP is not good. No batter has reached base on an error yet.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Rogers in Kelly out. Carp now in LF and Canha DH.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Perez almost got that. He already has 27 HR vs Detroit.

 

[Mitchrapp]

6 pitch inning, noice.

 

[biggunsbob]

Olson lost to Texas 1-0. Tigers never seem to hit when he pitches .

 

[biggunsbob]

Olson sometimes he always seems to have 1 bad inning to. In a jam now with Witt jr
up. Bases loaded sac fly. Kc up 1-0.

 

[biggunsbob]

Olson out of the bases loaded 1 out jam with only giving up 1 run.

 

[Mitchrapp]

That was a tough inning for Olsen, 4 pitch walk did not help.

 

[biggunsbob]

Great take by JB. He walked wow

 

[Mitchrapp]

Baez walked, again.

 

[biggunsbob]

Why do hitters always swing when a runner takes off ? That was a 1-1 count let him run Jake ! I guess you are suppose to swing.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Gibby said that pitch was in Meadows hot zone. He has no hot zone.

 

[biggunsbob]

Olson just can’t buy any runs. He was 2-3 feet over the wall damn it all.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Over the fence catch, DP.
