Let's look at the Detroit Tigers run differential the past 4 years.
2024: -3 (we were at +3 at one point)
2023: -79 (Scott Harris hired)
2022: -156
2021: -59 (remember after this we thought that adding a SS would fix all our problems)
By the way, The Tigers have the youngest roster in MLB now.

The Detroit Tigers pitching situation may seem chaotic at the moment, but in the last 14 days here's how the Tigers rank:
ERA: 2.08 (1st)
FIP: 3.07 (2nd)
K%: 25.6 (7th)
fWAR: 2.2 (3rd)
The Tigers held the Yankees to just four earned runs all weekend.

Fido sucks

 

[biggunsbob]

This pitcher just drives me crazy. He is lights out on the first batters. Come on AF !

 

[biggunsbob]

1-0 Tigers
Tork- Single
Jung- Single
Dingler - single rbi.

 

[biggunsbob]

Sigh. JB k’s badly. What a rally killer. They have to Find a SS next year. He is just
Unfixable.

 

[biggunsbob]

Eddie Mathews is the answer. Milwaukee and Detroit.

 

[biggunsbob]

Come on Sammons. Damn it.,

 

[biggunsbob]

wtf . He went. No way that is a hold. Ive seen that called.

 

[biggunsbob]

Another 3-2 count.

 

[biggunsbob]

Nice grab by Vierlng !

 

[biggunsbob]

Gets out of the jam !

 

[biggunsbob]

No walks please.

 

[biggunsbob]

First Career triple for Dingler !

 

[biggunsbob]

Baez fails again with a runner in scoring position. K’s looking.

 

[biggunsbob]

Parker fails. K’s looking .

 

[biggunsbob]

Greene K’s swing on a 3-2 count.

Lead off freaking triple and this team fails to drive the run in!!!!!!!!!!
Beaz , Meadows and Greene who has not hit a lick since his injury.
That was Embarrassing after Dingler’s triple .

 

[biggunsbob]

Mckinstry sucks but he is really hot last few games. I’d rather have him Bat over Baez.

 

[biggunsbob]

With 1 out Sammons had the 2nd batter 0-2 in the 5th. Walks him. So frustrating.
Next guy singles. K’s Next batter , two outs.
Bellinger gives Cubs the lead. First of all. That second pitch was a strike . It hit the box.
Count should been 0-2. Nope 1-1 double gives cubs the lead. Bellinger out
Running to 3rd. Should be tied. But the tigers can’t hit.
