Quick hits
? The Tigers continue to wait for an exam on Shane Greene's strained right shoulder, Gardenhire said, after the closer went on the 10-day DL on Sunday.
? Jeimer Candelario, who entered Thursday in an 0-for-8 slump to close out a 5-for-24 road trip, said he has been receiving hitting tips and ideas from Victor Martinez.
? Drew VerHagen, currently on the 10-day DL with a fractured nose from a couple weeks ago, is scheduled to throw at least one more rehab outing for Triple-A Toledo, Gardenhire said. VerHagen gave up two walks and a hit over 1 1/3 innings with one hit allowed.

I over do it once into a while in this heat as well after 5-6 miles if I don?t stop and hydrate at least once typically I?ll end up feeling Woosie and a nauseous and have to lay down for a hour then I?m fine.

[tigermud]

Steve little pretty open and blunt about Boyd’s crap outing tonight

Says didn’t use his FB enough they were sitting off speed and he never adjusted didn’t hide his disappointment

Interesting

Yes.

The Tigers are gaining great momentum in their free fall race to the bottom.

Still quite a few games behind the White Sox, Kansas City and Baltimore but there is always hope.

Still a good bit off the pace to break the record they so sorrowfully missed breaking back in 2002 or 2003 but you never know. As the great Yogi Berra once said, it ain?t over til it?s over.

Impressive stretch by the Royals. That would make even the 2003 Tigers cringe.
