Where is the defense.

 

[tinselwolverine]

Three straight batted balls in play, three straight defensive screw ups; two mental errors.

This team fields like shit - plays like they're little leaguers - and runs the bases just the same way.

Hey Miggy, Smart, let's take the chance of getting picked off making too big of a turn with a five run deficit, why not?

Tiger clown show in action.... And to think it was another series we should have taken 2 out of 3 games... Very frustrating.... Maybe we can come back LOL....

Letting the coke/meth head get more rbi and take the lead from your own team mate is unacceptable.
So sick and tired of the couple of jekyll and hyde pitchers, and the abominable defense.
Go have your f'n anxiety/panic attacks with another team bozoboesch.

 

[tigerfan2272]

Fuck you Boesch.

 

[kalinecountry]

of course delmon's twin brother and hackster boesch, first pitch grounder and force,

 

[tigerfan2272]

Fuck you Delmon. Fuck the whole team.

 

[tinselwolverine]

Well that was special.

edit I posted one hack pos too soon, of course FU too delmon.

Can you just hear the conversation in the dugout between BB and DY? "Jesus BB, that is how you hit into a double play, see your problem is yours was going to slow and you ran too fast."

The worst thing Porcello did in the bottom half of the last inning was field his position like an idiot; and he was in good company with his idiot team mates at that.

The girl's slow pitch softball team I coach makes less mental errors in a season than the Tigers did that last inning.

 

[kalinecountry]

getting shutout by this pos pitcher who has been lit up by other teams after the second or third time facing him, but the Tigers clown show wants to hack away,

Where is the defense.

Hmm, was anyone around during spring training, or is anyone privy to what goes on in team practice sessions? This team should have worked all aspects of defense, base running, etc. into the ground, and it looks like they just went through the motions. I remember Adam Everett being interviewed a couple of years ago, and he mentioned his team with the Twins, saying that their fielding practice during spring training almost killed him. I see Tigers currently interviewed, and the emphasis is on getting loose and relaxed, not on doing the right prep. I just don't think this is a very bright team, Miggy included.

Offense is a no show today thanks to DY's DP!

just got back to the game when I posted, so I missed that....which is surprising seeing he is at the least the second best and pretty good fielding pitcher with Fister,
Boesch is the lefthanded version of delmon hitting and fielding,

 

[tazmac]

Starting to wonder if the Rangers can hit the ball any harder. If Leyland leaves Ricky in there I am sure we will find out......

 

[kalinecountry]

now I feel better, they just showed a graph that Porcello leads all starters with hits allowed.

The clown show started with Peralta trying to make an unmakable play at the plate, instead of holding the runner at 2nd, or likely getting an over agressive base runner out at 3rd.

Worst case scenario is the runner stays at 2nd, and Porcello checks the runner at 2nd and gets the easy play 1-3, instead of throwing the ball away in a grounder to 1 trying to make the 1-6 tag out of the runner on 3rd diving back, which you never see anyway, because probably in the history of baseball, no pitcher has ever been so stupid as to have tried to make that play, instead of simply checking the runner and getting the sure 1-3 out...

Clown show doesn't even begin to describe...

glad I missed all that, this teams defense and approach at the plate by way too many is frustrating....
