Carpenter can not throw an inning without giving a run!

 

[biggunsbob]

So frustrated watching McCann and Iglesias hitting great out of Detroit. We gave up JD. we gave up verlander, and Max... so many good players

 

[tigermud]

The blithering Lloyd?s only have three stinking hits, only three guys hitting over .226 in this Avila?s finest stank hole lineup

 

[tigermud]

Well ok make that four

 

[lonesometiger]

Hicks homers

 

[tigermud]

Dixon 4-2

 

[tigermud]

Move Dixon to the four hole
Miggy to 2nd or 7th
Send zone expander Ronny down

 

[kalinecountry]

Ronny Rodriguez' nickname should be "Manos de Piedra" for his play in the field.

 

[tigermud]

So the tigers took 2 of 3 from the worst team in the American League wooo hoooo, only 45 more wins to match total from 17 and 18. I?m rooting for three straight 66

 

[Mitchrapp]

Miggy's OPS .722. I thought it might get over .800 at one point but he's down right bad.

Bless You Boys Tigers Blog Podcast 47: Rejoice in a series victory with Roger Martin of Tigers SRD. 99 minutes.
The staff of BYB breaks down the week in baseball news from a Tigers perspective.

Co-host Brandon Day is joined in last minute, heroic fashion by the host of the Tigers SRD podcast, and friend of Bless You Boys, Roger Martin. What follows is a wide-ranging conversation on the state of the Tigers and some of the other major league organizations trying to rebuild, or having already completed the process. The second half is largely devoted to answering listener questions, so thank you for all the good questions and feedback!

BTW, if you?re not listening to the Tigers SRD podcast, you should certainly add it to your playlist. BYB?s own Chris Milz was on last week, so that?s a good place to start. Roger and co-host Chris Brown do really nice work.

The Tigers finally won a series, and remain a group of surprising strengths and pretty striking weaknesses.

The Minnesota Twins appear to have leveled up into one of the better orgs in the game, while the Cleveland Indians are hanging on by a thread.

We look at the Tigers rebuilding effort, and some of the other struggling franchises around the game.

From about 48:00 on, we dive into a deep mailbag of listener questions.
