A minor adjustment may be the saving grace for this Detroit Tigers rookie

The Detroit Tigers second baseman has struggled this year, but as of late, a simple tap of the toe has been the difference for Colt Keith.

A minor adjustment may be the saving grace for this Detroit Tigers rookie.
Infielder Colt Keith had a rough start to the year. He pulled off a minor tweak to his swing, and it has paid dividends thus far.

Andy Ibáñez has an .856 OPS. Tigers could use nine of him, maybe a couple who hit left handed.

Last night, Jason Foley first save since 4/28 first clean outing (no hits or BB) with 2 SO since 4/5.

The Tigers have made the following roster moves:• Following last night's game, optioned OF Akil Baddoo to Triple A Toledo• Reinstated INF Gio Urshela from the 10-day injured list

They may beat MIA..but make no mistake about it..the Detroit Tigers right now are a bad baseball team.. meaning 90 loss bad..minimal hitting whatsoever..holes in the rotation..no real closer..and ZERO places to get help..with a POBO that has never had answers..just excuses.

How many bad players will Scott Harris marry..because he acquired them..just an endless stubborn mess..Maton, Vierling, Sands, Kelly.

Matt Manning 5 years in..STILL cannot finish off hitters..gets to 2 strikes..just stops attacking..also does not have a finishing pitch.

Ilitch record:
10 years .500 or above (8 by DD)
21 under .500
4 years 100+ losses
Functional but meh new park
2 WS losses
5 post-seasons
Fired DD, promoted Avila w/out search
Let Avila destroy team for 7 years.
Hired a forward thinking guy who may or may not be the answer.

A feud between the Tigers and marlins after marlins made insults about Tigers and Detroit.

I wonder why Hinch just doesn't pick a lineup and stick with it? I've never seen so many lineup orders in a season let alone just 42 games.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Score the man some runs.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Quickest inning I've ever seen.. Olsen 4 pitches, Weathers 5 pitches.

 

[jas5lf]

No hits...you can't make this shit up.

 

[tigermud]

Perfect game watch for weathers. With how the game is today they’ll probably pull him after 24 up 24 down because he’s at 90 pitches.

 

[jas5lf]

Perfect game over....now score some damn runs!

 

[tigermud]

Well there goes that notion!

 

[jas5lf]

Baez....

 

[tigermud]

In other news Baez still blows. Might be better to just cut him and pay a guy league min for the next 3 years to fill in for the void can’t hit much worse

 

[Mitchrapp]

Olsen 2.18.. No wins. No runs. Sad.

 

[Mitchrapp]

This ump sucks btw.

 

[tigermud]

it’s odd to me to see plenty of contact with such little production.

 

[Mitchrapp]

I'll bring him back out for the 9th. Let the guy pitch..

 

[tigermud]

Still can’t get used to how quick these games go now. Would take me longer now to drive to and back home from a game then the game would last, not even sure there would be time for a couple of beers be over your heading out already why would I want to go to a game now with that reality. What’s the point.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Perez always getting the hits.

 

[tigermud]

Baez needs to change his whole approach. He’s already bailing to the pull side before he even swings. Get miggy down there to revamp him completely, scrap it and start over Baez!

 

[Mitchrapp]

No win for Olsen..

 

[Mitchrapp]

Someone get a HR here..
