Mize first 50 pitches

Why Detroit Tigers plan to have Mark Canha make rare starts at first base

Detroit Tigers outfielder Mark Canha isn't a first baseman, but he has some experience at first base throughout his 10-year MLB career.

Torkelson career April's
2022 190/311/349 3HR/9RBI
2023 215/276/323 2HR/11 RBI
2024 232/323/317 0HR/7RBI
He's really bad in April..but adding just unplayable defense to the mix..and its year 3..concerning.

I don't understand how they haven't sent him down yet. He is clueless. They are going to need to get him some mental help soon.

The alternative is probably Baddoo. Probably why they haven't sent him down yet.

Yeah, they definitely should put a guy coming off TJ and back surgeries back out there. The shit people here bitch about....

Who's bitching. Why do you think everyone's bitching because you disagree. Why not try to have a conversation. He's fine if the injury is a concern why pitch him at all. I just wanted him to get another inning.

 

[kalinecountry]

With his RBI single in the first inning, Kerry Carpenter has now recorded a RBI in six consecutive games, the longest streak by a Tigers hitter since Justin Upton had a RBI in six straight from August 1-6, 2017.

Buddy Kennedy sends the ball bye bye.

Sac fly for Tork. Bob will be happy ;-)

 

[Mitchrapp]

6-0 going B9.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Well there goes the shutout..

 

[gotime909]

Greene, Tork and Carp have been swinging the bat well. Great signs.

 

[Mitchrapp]

It's never easy..

3 struggling Tigers players who need to turn it around before drastic decisions arrive

The Detroit Tigers have fought for their winning record so far, but there are still some players who haven't been pulling their weight.

The Detroit Tigers' way of winning is unsustainable

The Detroit Tigers offense has had a rough start to the year, and there are more consequences to that than you would think.

The way the Detroit Tigers have been winning games is unsustainable.
Coming into the season, Detroit Tigers' fans knew that the strength was the pitching, but the hitting has been even worse than advertised, and cannot continue if they want to make an impact throughout the season.

Shitty Willi Castro has been a tiger killer so far. 9 hits on the year and 5 of them have been against us.

Was just Turing on the tv. I really like productive at bats. Tork was so close to homer Number 1. I heard that on the radio earlier.

Yep. I thought it was gone at first. The sac fly was a good at bat after falling behind 0-2.

Tigers win the series ! 12-10 on the season. Great job everyone! Sorry but I hurt myself today and had some issues with my back and groin.

Feel better Bob.

I hope you get well. I can sympathize with back broblems, most of my life.

So our tigers, our at least a little better than many thought.

Before the beginning of the season, I heard sick Michigan Wolverine fan John Paul Morosi - yes, that John Paul Marosi - predict that the tigers were probably going to be above 500 this year.

I would say he gets to be a sick subjective I’ll Wolverines fan because that’s not his line of work. The Tigers are probably the team he grew up rooting for, but I think he’s probably a pretty objective analyst anyway let’s hope he’s right.

The Guardos have been pretty hot lately and have put a little space between them and Kansas and us or our Tigers. I should say I’m not with the tigers.

So glad that it was a good start and hope it keeps up. I couldn’t find a reasonable red wings thread to say crap just barely missed it but crap just barely missed it.
