kitekrazy Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 02:39 PM) Beckham homers two nights in a row and gets benched, makes sense. Reminds me of the previous manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Gordon Beckham=Brent Lillibridge 2011 At least this week. Strange how managers always tend to want to go with veterans down the stretch, whether they're grizzled retreads or completely inexperienced first-year guys. UNLESS, they just told Hudson...your job is to bunt every single time AT Cabrera. The funny thing is that I've seen probably 30-40 Tigers' games this season and that running in on the bunt and throwing across his body is one of the things he does the best. I've only seen him make 1 or 2 errors. It's usually the routine plays that trip him up. And, of course, his lack of range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Absolutely HAVE to get to Scherzer early, before he gets in a rhythm and cranks up his fastball into the high 90's. It will be the same story tmrw night against Verlander. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Not exactly an auspicious beginning for Gavin. He's getting torched by LH batters, so Dirks, Fielder, Boesch and Avila will all be looking to do damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 How is Detroit not running away with it with this starting pitching of theirs? They dominate us and all their starters are studs. Leyland should be fired. With that staff along with Cabrera and Fielder how can they not be running away with this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 I wouldn't want to play this Detroit team in the playoffs with this starting rotation. Only thing that could get Detroit beat is its defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see how anybody beats their starting pitchers. It's the same thing everytime I tune in. Their pitchers are pouring strikes in there and we are doing very little with their pitches. Last night's two solo homers meant nothing. Solo homers don't mean squat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With that kind of pitching, it seems stupid of them to not build a team with defense as well to go with sieves Cabrera/Fielder at the corners.

caulfield12 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Not sure exactly what Konerko was looking for there. He changed the arm angle up just a touch and came across the body more, but Konerko's just in a funk in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
