Tigers verses M's April 26th

[spockmaster]

BB swinging strike, 3-2.

swinging at ball 4.

 

[bassburns]

BB grounds to Ryan, tigers rally goes by wayside.

 

[mattym]

Sheet.

 

[mjsb2]

why not? i admittedly dont pay attention to our minor leaguers as much as some people, but despite a high babip this year he has good OBP skills and his defense seemed good from what i saw this spring.

Berry isn't even a good minor league hitter.

I;d bet a large sum of money against a small return that Boesch would outperform Berry going forward.

 

[spockmaster]

wish we had that out back that leyland gave up on the bunt.

fair enough.

 

[mjsb2]

Boesch needs to quit being dumb at the plate though.

Players like Boesch and Young, those with natural skill and talent, but just dumb players are the most frustrating to watch.

why bring in dotel to face ichiro? granted ichiro doesnt really have big splits, but dotel DOES.

 

[spockmaster]

I still can't get over using Below last night. :nuts:

 

[bassburns]

Dotel mows 'em down in the 8th, come on el Tigres!

 

[tigermud]

Dotel has been excellent for us. That was a great signing DD!

 

[mjsb2]

Alright, now would be a good time for Prince to break out of his power funk.

 

[Thumb]

Wonder if they just walk Cabrera to start the inning?

 

[jdbaker1]

Well, now or never.

 

[tigermud]

Alright, now would be a good time for Prince to break out of his power funk.

I recommend he put the little bat away, it's just not getting over that last 5 ft.

I don't get the beef here? What were the alternatives, Don Kelly?

we can only hope.

 

[bassburns]

Miggy, Prince, & DY due up, don't let us down boys!

 

[gotime909]

I hope you mean only on defense.

Boesch is #2 on the team in RBI, yeah, lets bench him in favor of an unproven guy because of a couple defensive misplays.

Young is tied for 4th in RBI, and top 5 in BA, OBP, and OPS.

To be fair, Boesch is probably seeing the best pitches of anyone in baseball with Cabrera and Fielder behind him.
