Tigers vs. Royals game thread April 18th

[tigermud]

I’m making to concerted effort not to get too upset this year but I must say the offense has been very unimpressive thus far, other than against Boston and Mr. Inge needs to retire.

Same shit different year. Gotta do something with bases loaded no outs

 

[jdbaker1]

That hurts.

 

[tigermud]

The 83 Mph 3-1 pitch to JP right down the middle for a called strike wasn't helpful either.

Looks like inge shoulda practiced baseball instead of martial arts in the offseason.

 

[tigermud]

You know what we need? We need to figure out who can hit the slower off speed junk guys, and come up with an off speed junk ball lineup and a FB lineup that Jimmy can platoon, depending on the pitcher... cuz I'll tell ya what, we've got a few guys that just can't square up the slower stuff at all.. and really this has been a problem for at least 3 years now.

I thought the same thing but we are 6th in runs score in all of baseball. And until yesterday's huge game, Texas wasn't lighting it up either. It will come around.

Fudge.

Max pretty much had a lousy spring to didn't he?

His off speed stuff sucks.

This game just went to hell in a hurry.

I'm getting really disappointed with the brown eye Max.

Damn inconsistent.

 

[kalinecountry]

Damn inconsistent.

that's the word...inconsistent.

Scherzer with 59 pitches.

 

[amajjd]

My guess is Mickey Tettleton

 

[manchild98]

Sanchez is looking like Nuke Laloosh.

 

[tigermud]

Sanchez can't even get it over the plate and we Can't square up 83 Mph when he does. This is very painful to watch.

Good old Meat. If he can turn into what Nook turned into, I'll take it.

Cabby scores from 1st. Good job
