Detroit Tigers Thread: Exclusive Home of the VS Bust Tracker

Probably the same person who decided it was a good idea for us to wear these jerseys ever

 

Keith now has higher BA than Green. Tork needs to go to AAA

 

Greene’s been figured out at the plate. Keith has a great approach. Wouldn’t be surprised if Keith finished the season around .280

 

He’s hitting .150 since MG2 or DeToxRox declared him a superstar

 

Batting stats in May. Top two are the main reason team sucks ass, and has pretty much bottomed out.

• Torkelbust - .195 - 3 homers, 6 RBI's, 18 strikeouts
• Greene (Superstar) - .207 - 2 homers, 5 RBI's, 25 strikeouts
• Keith - .377, 1 homer, 11 RBI's, OPS .933

 

Fuck this team.

 

Respect to the bullpen for deciding they would all suck at the same time. Good lord these last couple weeks have been atrocious.

 

Holy shit I did not expect to win that game. Have a day, Vierling.

 

Eh, we fuck again!

 

Tik Tok on the clock, but the party don’t stop

 

Call him up to the white caps so I can take my son to watch him

 

Bust!

 

so you can show your son this could be you if you become famous on Tik Tok?

 

My sons first baseball game he went to he saw Torkelson and Meadows playing on the whitecaps. Gotta make sure he sees all the busts before they get to the MLB

 

Had it occurred to you that your son might be the problem?

 

Probably should be moved up to WM already. He's clearly further along than Clark (who has been fine but not great).

 

Dingler is hitting .303 now and just hit his 7th HR. He's already 25, think he's gotta be given a look this season at some point

 

These uniforms are an abomination and make me want us to lose just to stop seeing them

 

The entire thing sucks so I don't want to give the impression I think the rest of it is good, but the hat is so unbelievably bad. Why did they come up with that instead of just using any logo? Even the tiger eyes they use on the scorebug would be way better as a hat.

A lot of teams have awful city connects but a decent hat at least. The Tigers' hat/helmet is the worst part, IMO.

 

Vierling is on fire

 

Does the MLB have any type of rules around the city connects where they have to be around X number of seasons or can they be done with these after this year? Not sure of the uniform rules in MLB, but know the NFL only lets you change your jerseys every so often.

 

Skubal apparently done after 7 with an 8-0 lead and 93 pitches. I don't get why you wouldn't give him another inning in game one of a DH and a guy making his debut starting game 2.

 

because we are throwing our two worst relievers. Who gives a shit

 

I'm not sure if he's on an innings count or what, but Hamm pitched 3 innings of no hit ball for white caps today.

In his minor league career he now has 49.2 ip 29 h 63 k 7 bb. That's a 0.72 era and a 0.72 whip

 

let’s call his bitch ass up.

 

The Mets are DFA this guy . Let’s sign him. 0.6 WAR on the season. He’s got a tell it like it is attitude. My kind of player.

 

An example of a far superior hat...

 

Flaherty no hitter through 6.

 

Nice job, jerk

 

they were taking him out after the 7th anyways.

 

How did carpenter break his back?

 

When is maeda getting put on DL for remainder of the season or DFA’d?

 

Harris signed this bum first and he throws his fastball at 88-91

 

Awful signing. Guy is a bum. Harris doesn’t know what he’s doing.

 

Harris didn’t want to give an extra year to Lugo, so he signed Maeda instead for 2 years

Lugo is like 9-1, with a 1.50 ERA

 

Hopefully you’ll be able to remove Keith from your bust list by mid June

 

so which bum are we calling up when Canha hits the IL today? Won't be Malloy (Harris hates him), probably looking like Meadows.

 

what’s meadows been doing

 

Cowering in fear in his basement.

Oh, you mean the other one.

 

Another 0 for 4 for Torkelbust smeegsgreen . When do they send his bitch ass to Toledo?

 

If he plays tomorrow and puts up the same line I think Monday

 

Looks like he’s going down to Toledo after the game.

 

Unfortunately Huira has gone cold. I'd guess maybe Vilade would come back up again. Saw they had him playing 1st yesterday, wonder if it was to get him some work there before a call up

 

Or bring up Jung and Urshella plays 1b and Vierling can play OF

 

Yeah it’s happening. Yikes. Not a good look.
