Detroit Tigers Thread: Exclusive Home of El Mago & the Vingorithim

I’ll put something together before the game on Friday.

 

flies over the 400 sign; hmm let’s go with 370

 

BTW, Jobe is retired as a prospect now according to mlb. Clark is now the #3 prospect in all of baseball according to them

 

I’m no longer blacked out of Rockies games being 8 hours away in Omaha. Thank god MLB came to their senses on that one.



Only the Royals remain.

 

Wow, this crowd is embarrassing.

 

FUCK

 

Jobe getting lit up by this AAA team. Not good. He’ll be back in Toledo soon enough.

 

Hey Vin we updating our record now?

 

Feel like Vins calculations are so advanced, they had to calculate Jobe start in the equation already. Almost positive which side of his bust list Jobe will be on tomorrow

 

Also, the offense better be able to get some runs in Colorado on their rookie with his 6+ era

 

correct. Algorithm is well aware Jobe isn’t good. Still feeling good about us finishing the trip 6-4.

 

Need to come back and win this one.

 

Jobe hasn’t impressed one bit. Why was he the top pitching prospect for about a year?

 

Dingler walked!

 

Let’s fucking go Javy

 

Now shut their ass down Jobe. This is worst hitting team in the majors.

 

Fuck

 

BUST

 

Let’s fucking go Javier

 

This doesn't look like a matchup of two top 10 prospects on the mound

It does look like a Coors Field game though

 

Jobe just gonna give the lead up at the bottom of the inning.

 

Keith back over the Uecker line! OBP at .349, too

 

Balancing act here with Jobe here between not wanting to kill your bullpen with the double header tomorrow and 9 games with no off days before next Thursday, but not wanting to kill your chances of getting a win in this game.

I’m guessing they try to squeeze 4 innings out of him and hope they still have a lead, bring someone else in for the 5th.

 

He’s just leaving way too much over the plate and the stuff is way too hittable to get away with that.

 

He fucking sucks.

 

Torkelson is an elite throwing 1st baseman.

 

He's gotta learn he can't get guys out with just his stuff in mlb and learn how to pitch better. Skubal had a 5.63 era his first year. Took JV a couple years to be dominant. Give the kid some time, he's got some adjustments he's gotta make for sure but I'm hardly going to write him off

 

Which is crazy because I just looked it up and his arm strength is a literal 1 out of 100 on baseball savant.

 

he can learn how to pitch in Toledo when Cobb comes back.

 

Leadoff batter has reached base in 4 of 5 innings. Only inning the leadoff guy was retired the 2nd and 3rd hitters got a hit and a 2 run HR.

 

It's one of those nights you got to strap in for. I'd like to think our BP and hitters should provide us an edge the rest of the way, but it would be nice to have one stress free inning

 

Man those 2 Javy swings at sliders way outside brought back bad memories of 2024 Javy.

 

Hell yeah Gleyber.

 

Fuck off Malloy.

 

Such a painful game to watch. Come on Kahnle

 

The Doyle lineout and Javy 107 exit velo double play can cancel each other out.

Let’s get some runs.

 

McMahon was hitting like .160 going into today, wtf

 

That extra run could be massive. Let’s get a 3rd, Javy.

 

That's generous calling that a hit

 

Trey Sweeney last 2 games 8-9 2 2b 1 hr 7 rbi

Average has gone from .206 to .261

 

Again, this looks just like last year. Scary.

 

Added more than 150 points to his OPS in the last week (was .570 on May 1)

 

Going to need one of the starters to go deep tomorrow. And we know it's unlikely going to be Montero. Lot of pressure on Mize

 

Thank god we got a win there. A loss to the Rockies while needing 6.1 IP from our bullpen and using a lot of the best arms would have sucked.

 

Jobe has a 4.88 era and we are 6-0 in games he started

Flaherty has a 3.79 era and we are 1-6 in games he's started

 

They changed it to an error :(

 

Game 1 of DH is Mize v Freeland. Freeland is 0-4 with a 5.70 era

Game 2 of DH we have Montero, but we going against a guy who was 0-6 with a 8.65 era last year in Colorado, and has a 4.82 era in aaa this year

Bats should stay hot hopefully today
