A concerted effort to counter all the reports being published about the rebuild. Meanwhile, Al Avila still hasn't been seen or heard from for awhile now...

He then went to state that the reinforcements are arriving in Detroit and "everyone is playing really well when they do arrive." Shepard heartily agreed to everything Gibby said, nodding his head vigorously.

Get ready for more of Detroit Tigers' Kirk Gibson smoke and mirrors about how the MLB standings don't provide the whole picture when it comes to the Tigers this year. There's a reason why a Front Office employee has been put in the broadcast booth.

Totally Tigers

14-25 isn't all that bad considering.

One game remaining until Sparky's 40-game team assessment time.


One good thing to post about the '21 Tigers is that they aren't Al Ackerman fat & slow.


(I was actually watching the local WXYZ (ABC affiluate) 11:20 pm sports newscast back in the mid-70s when the late Ackerman coimed that description of the Tigers team)

 

[Rebbiv]

In April, DET scored 4 or more runs in 9 of 27 games (33.3%). They went 8-19, .296 WPCT.

In May so far, DET scored 4 or more runs 9 of 12 games (75.0%). They went 6-6, .500 WPCT.

Home = 9 of 20

Away = 9 of 19


They have yet to score 10 runs in a game, but gave it up in 6 games (5 on the road).

They have been shutout 6 times (5 on the road), but have yet to shutout opponent. In fact, games where scoring 1 run or less. DET = 9 (7 on road). OPP = 0
