just 1 game back? what a shitty division

 

[buddyboy2121]

So what... BV is a scrub... He should not be in tight games.. He has failed more times then he has succeeded it seems like in close games... Throw freaking strikes and stop walking guys and throwing 1 wild pitch to get a runner to third......

Game really falls on JB... He is worthless if he can't have clean innings...

I blame Don Kelly, catch that ball and the game is 6-5 still, not 6-6.

I feel bad for Mr I , first time I felt sorry for a billionaire

Yeah after seeing Texas and the way we are playing it feels like a first round exit to me right now... thank god our division is bad. But to go from 9-3 and 10-5 to 10-10 with 3 games verses Seattle in that group is terrible.

im glad i was at work for this horseshit of a game.

**** the offense, **** kelly, **** villareal, **** benoit, and **** leyland. did i miss anyone?

Alex has been total hot dogshxt 0-5 tonight gesss 8 LOB yikes. Pass ball to end it, WTF is wrong with him.

JV didn't have it tonight and they got some cheap hits early.

I'm no longer pissed about any of this crap, it's just now flat out depressing. I think that opening Boston whoop ass got the hope factor up way too high.. turns out that opening series was just a fluke we really aren't that good. No sir.. Not that good at all..

Central is up for grabs anybody want it?

It's either our offense shits the bed or the bullpen blows the game. Getting old quick though.

So what?

I'm just pointing it out. Avila left 8 men on base, and passed ball allowing the walk off run to score.

He deserves a great deal of the blame, as do Kelly and his 4 LOB + run scoring error, Eldred's 5 LOB, Boesch's 4 LOB.

Also we had 3 options to pitch the 9th, BV, the new guy just called up, or Valverde, who people would freak out if was brought into a non-save situation. I don't think you can blame Smokes for that.

 

[biggunsbob]

damn we need a winning streak.

**** Avila, he let two balls get pass him in the 9th and left about 6 or 7 runners on base himself.

Dotel has been lights out, need to start letting him go 2..

Smokes just isn't a good manager anymore, I think he was at one time, but he isn't doing anything special that anybody else couldn't do just as bad.

Joe west... He **** us more then them..

Or you can just let Coke pitch the 8th and then bring Valverde in for the close. But no, let's bring in a struggling reliever.

Tigers were 12-15 at the end of last April and won the division by 15 games

Minn..............5-14

Thank You MLB for moving us to the Central..

There was nothing wrong with the manager tonight. Jesus. Ballplayers have to make routine plays or the team will lose.

 

[tigermud]

Benoit always looks like he's scared shitless before he throws the ball as if he doesn't believe in himself worried he's going to walk the hitter.

We need to get AL AL back also. gesssh really miss #62

I know I posted a whole rundown on that on the bandwagon thread... 7 game losing streak they were even 25-25 in very late may...

I tired of seeing Leyland's "Old-man-shitting-his-pants" look. I'm looking forward to the Phil Nevin era

Just swap them. Then Jimmy can play all the AAA players he wants!
