Another reason to have Maybin bunt in a 4-4 tie right before Kinsler gets picked.
He is struggling big time right now . He ended up 1 for 13 with 6 k's in the series.
Try something different Brad !!!!

I knew a lot of you would be harping on Brad when the players didn't do their jobs. The entire pen is garbage. You guys are too funny.

I did mention AA and his garbage pen but why is brad getting a pass for using Greene when he has been garbage the last month and the lefty wilson kid. Al we are saying is try something different maybe. That is brad he never tries anything different ever it seems. Dare to be different sometimes which Brad seems incapable of doing.

The Tigers decided not to bring Jimenez up. They said he needed to refine his slider and changeup..... He is going to the Instructional league when that starts up.
Brilliant!!!!

Justin Upton: More like Justin time. Had it not been for his home run, the Tigers would’ve remained off the board until the seventh. He also singled in the ninth.
Seventh inning: With two outs, James McCann worked a walk, Casey McGehee hit a six-pitch single, and Iglesias doubled for the go-ahead run (at the time).
Bruce Rondon and Alex Wilson: The duo gave Detroit a clean sixth and seventh inning, respectively. The former needed just seven pitches, and the latter, 13 to retire all six batters in order with a strikeout apiece.
Shane Greene: Hasn’t been pitching well. Failed to be serviceable again and gave up the tying and go-ahead runs for the White Sox. Greene had allowed one run over 9 2/3 innings in July. Greene has allowed 14 runs and 17 hits over his past 9 1/3 innings covering eight appearances.
Tigers bullpen in the eighth: It wasn’t pretty. They gave up four runs on five hits and a walk. The Tigers went from leading by one, to trailing by three. Comparing their efforts, it made Anibal Sanchez look like an ace, and the starter was not particularly sharp.
The difference? He could at least escape jams and the bullpen couldn’t.
STATS AND INFO:
Shane Greene’s ERA ballooned to 13.85 since August 17. He had maintained a 2.89 ERA in the 29 games prior, dating back to June 4.
Justin Wilson had a 1.17 ERA in his last nine outings entering Wednesday’s game, but he gave up two inherited runners and one of his own in the eighth.
Because the Orioles lost their game today, the Tigers had a chance to enter their day off even with the Orioles for the second Wild Card spot.
Both teams have Thursday off, but because Detroit lost, they’ll entire Friday’s series one game behind Baltimore and needing to make up more ground.
Reliever Bruce Rondon, who threw a scoreless inning on Wednesday, has quietly had a very nice month. Over his last 15 outings, he's thrown 14 1/3 innings, allowed only two runs on nine hits and struck out 20. Opponents are batting only .173 against him.
Tigers center fielder Cameron Maybin went 1-for-13 with six strikeouts in the series, his first games since missing a week with an aggravated thumb injury.

I wasn't watching this game on the internet, but I was watching the box score. I noticed that Shane Greene allowed 3 earned runs. Greene allowed 2 runs while on the mound and Justin Wilson pitched to the player who drove in Garcia, an inherited runner from Shane Greene. Alright guys. It is September 8th. The margin is thin. If we do a bunch of smart stuff and make some clutch plays, we will make it to the wild card game. If we have a lot of things go right, we will make it to the division championship. If we have shitty relief pitching, and dumb baserunning, we will miss the playoffs. We will face Minnesota and Atlanta for a total of 10 games in the remaining games this year. Those are the worst teams in baseball. We have to beat the crap out of them.
