Tigers medical update: Gio Urshela (right hamstring strain) is scheduled to run the bases again Wednesday at Progressive Field, which could be the final test before he begins a rehab assignment.

It's a packed show today as Mark and Evan welcome on to the podcast Ryan Garko, Detroit Tigers' vice president of player development. Before the guy's get to the interview, Mark and Evan cover the impressive play of Riley Greene. Could the outfielder swing his way into the MVP discussion? The "Days of Roar" crew also continue to monitor Spencer Torkelson's lack of quality performance and they note recent comments made by A. J. Hinch on the matter. Later in the pod, Evan interviews Max Clark and delves into how the young player is progressing in the minor leagues.

New guy just called up promptly swings at 1st pitch after a walk and grounds into DP.

 

[biggunsbob]

Spencer sees a bunch of pitches. New guy swings at damn first pitch. I know you are excited but make the pitcher work if you can’t get ball in the air.

Don’t say this much. JB picks up the dummy who bounced into a dp.
Rbi single. He can sure run the bases.,

 

[biggunsbob]

That ball was crushed ! 3 run Jack by Ibanez !

 

[jas5lf]

Ibanez having a career game after 2 ABs!! Good to see some life out there.

 

[biggunsbob]

Come on Meada ! He is all over the plate. Dial it in please !
He freaking walks the #9 hitter.

 

[biggunsbob]

So the day we hit Meada stinks . Typical Tigers luck. 5-3 now runners on 2nd and 3rd.
One out . He was just not a good signing . And we signed him for 2 years.
Pop out for the 2nd out. Ramirez up. He should be walked AJ is just
Stupid . He hits a easy 2-0 pitch 5-5

 

[biggunsbob]

Ramirez should been walked. Guess it doesn’t matter. Next guy homers 7-5.
This pitcher stinks .What a terrible signing Meada was..
Embarrassing pitching that half inning.

 

[biggunsbob]

Greene singles
Rogers K’s on a ball.
Spencer works 3-2 count after 0-2 then smokes a double in left field .
Vilade gets behind 0-2 then 1-2 gets his first mlb hit and 2 RBI’s ! 7-7. Single .
Baez 0-2 K’s on three pitches.
Kelly flys out to ff
Bottom 3rd each team has a touchdown and extra point.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Weird game it seems we score but the pitching is let down. We might need to score double digit runs.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Already better than Meadows.

 

[Mitchrapp]

First hit special for the kid and his family.

 

[biggunsbob]

Holton nice clean half inning.

 

[nydo77]

We have seen way too many gidp to score a run so far this year. All he needed to do was get the ball in the air.

Way too many. We just are allergic to sac flys.

Maeda stinks almost every day.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Maeda stinks almost every day.

He's been good the past 2 games.

 

[coulomb]

Man, I'm sick of that ewok ramirez. he bats like .500 vs us.
