greg775 Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 I'm thinking Trayce will be DFA'ed soon. Poor guy is gonna have to play Independent League soon or enter the real world. Just another guy who can't hit a baseball. Tough sport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kwolf68 Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Tigers 4, Renteria 3 What a joke. The bunt. The stupid ass use of bullpen, then having Palka on the bench for the .165 hitting Thompson. What a crock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 we are trying to lure the tigers back into the al central race so they can foolishly trade some of their prospects? brilliant stuff, Hahn and Tricky Ricky. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get your hopes up. If they fire him and hire someone legit, they will actually get criticism if they don't play well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most overlooked story of the year has been Heyman saying he had "informed speculation" that Girardi would be their next manager.

He just managed himself into a 9th inning, down by one run situation -- where he had his slowest runner on first representing the tying run. With his absolute worst hitter at the plate, with the game on the line. With all options exhausted. And it was BEYOND avoidable... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palka is slow in the field but isn't as slow as you would think on the bases. Trayce isn't exactly Engel or Timmy running, and it was obvious when he had no shot going to 3rd on a soft single to RF.

I feel for the guy, but even he has to know that his days in Major League Baseball are extremely numbered and that he can't hang. He sees his numbers on the scoreboard every night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Don't forget, he made two substitutions for pinch runners and then bunted, so he was still playing for one run (tie game). If they had tied it in 8th, he was then down two of his more dangerous hitters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I've never thought of Palka as slow. He's moved it down the line to beat out a few ground balls this year for hits. This game included.

And it was BEYOND avoidable... there was just no reason to burn through Rondon and avilan so quickly, especially if frye was unavailable...and they still ended up having to use Minaya against v.martinez as a lhb even though he made it into a life or death situation in the top of the 7th.

Yep using 3 solid relievers and then having Minaya throw almost 50 pitches doesn't seem like a sound game plan. Just hope everyone is healthy.
