[biggunsbob]

Come on boys some one hit a wall 2 or 3 run shot. Time for some Dickerson as I go to the store .

 

[manchild98]

6 walks and we are still in this game!.

Pretty crazy he made it 6 innings.

 

[lonesometiger]

Iglesias gets Tigers first walk of the game.

 

[tigermud]

Just couldn't square keuchel up all night long, those slow benders aren't easy to square maybe they'll take him out and the tigers will have a shot in the 9th with the 3-4-5 if they can hold it at one

 

[lonesometiger]

Got to get a run here. Can not lose this game 1-0! I know Pelfrey did not pitch a great game but can not waist a start he gives up only one run!

 

[lonesometiger]

Cabrera batting .242 WT.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Too easy.

 

[tigermud]

All three loses this year are vs soft tosing lefties..all three

Cabrera batting .242 WT.

Yeah starting to get concerned, he's hitting into the ground a lot, maybe his best days are behind him, it happens to everyone eventually

1 run in 6 innings. Pelfrey deserved the win. Damn.

One guy there is no concern over. It's been a week and a half.

Their guy deserved it more I think.

He's finally heathy again though and had a full regular spring for the first time in two years. His timing looks off a hair fouling off a lot, missing or pounding into ground. He'll be fine but his days of 100 ribs might be over, shit happens age and injuries catch up to all eventually

 

[tigermud]

Pelfrey deserved nothing he's damn fortunate he only gave up 1 effectively not impressive lol keuchel was lights out, this game was all Dallas keuchel hats off to him tigers don't hit off speeder lefties, offense will return tomorrow it's all good

For 28 MILLION he should be doing better than 100 rbi's, or this is going to turn into the mother of bad contracts! BTW he hit .340 in the spring.

Which is why the slow start is a little surprising he seemed 100% ready to go this year with the bat, then timing goes off..shit happens I guess he's more human than he used to be. Lol

 

[UMRules06]

You get paid in baseball for what you've done. Not what you will do. It's just how it is.

Miggy should still be able to hit .300 hit 25-30 hrs and 100 rbis. I have no doubt about that.

Justin Upton has struck out at least once in every game this season.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Have a good 2-3 days and bam, over .300. He won a batting title, when being hurt. Not worried about Miggy until it's time too. And 9 games in, not the time. Not many his age keep on hitting 32 home runs. That's too much to ask..
