Norris working out in Lakeland, feeling better, said Ausmus. No timetable but not eligible to return until MIN series.

BlueJays announce that Edwin Encarnacion dropped the appeal of his one-game suspension. He'll serve that today.

Sanchez is trash. Please make sure he doesn't board the flight back from Toronto.

 

[kalinecountry]

Anibal Sanchez has 5 swing-and-misses this inning, all on fastballs. He needed a 6th. Josh Thole connected for 2-run, 2-out single. 2-0 Jays.

3 hits. 3 strikeouts. A walk. 2 runs. A definite Anibal Sanchez-caliber inning in 2016.

 

[gotime909]

This Sanchez starting nonsense has to end. The guy can't even put away the worst hitter in the league in Thole. He must've fouled off 4 pitches to stay alive before a sharp single knocks in 2.

Anibal Sanchez has 5 swing-and-misses this inning, all on fastballs. He needed a 6th. Josh Thole connected for 2-run, 2-out single. 2-0 Jays.

I think most of it is focus with him. He'll throw 4 or 5 pretty good pitches with decent location and then just completely groove a pitch right down the middle. I just don't get it

 

[kalinecountry]

Cabrera is hitting .182 with 2 outs and RISP this season.

Kinsler 28-123 .227 since June 8.

 

[gotime909]

This is so damn frustrating watching Sanchez as a starter.

 

[gotime909]

Thole's obp the last 2 years is under .250 and Sanchez hasn't got him out yet.

 

[nydo77]

Cabrera showing his 1st pitch hitting ability (of the past).....

 

[gotime909]

This is the last game before a long break and we bring in our worst reliever right out of the gate?

 

[SpartyNash]

Sanchez should literally never start another game as a Tiger the rest of his career

 

[lonesometiger]

Should Sanchez start again. Tigers should just give everyone a day off. That would solve the rest days off deal and give the mudhens game time.

 

[tigermud]

What a disappointing first half..these tigers aren't good enough

 

[kalinecountry]

White flag....Lowe pitching.

 

[kalinecountry]

This will be a 6 - 5 road trip, but with any kind of situational hitting, bullpen management, and better starters, this could have been a 7-4 or 8-3 road trip.

They won't do much of anything of significance by the trade deadline.

 

[tigermud]

After starting the trip 4-0 finishing it up 6-5 is a huge disappointment and does little to nothing to help any post season chances...

 

[lonesometiger]

Tigers are 14 and 25 in games Sanchez (7-14) and Pelfery (7-11) have pitched in. Lets see Tigers are 46-42. They are 32- 17 without the double losers! It should not take an Einstien to figure out what to do in the second half.

 

[kalinecountry]

Yankees were beating the indians 8 - 1, now 11 - 7,

Mariners leading royals 3 - 0,

What the hell are we going to do now for the next four days
