Here’s to not getting swept

I don’t know that things came any easier today for the Tigers, but the boys did enough to secure a 4-2 win and stave off panic in Detroit. Max Scherzer did his job, the offense did enough, and the bullpen locked it all down.

The Tigers turn to Max Scherzer to stop their three game slide. Scherzer, like the rest of the rotation has a good start and a shaky start under his belt this year.

Ian Snell takes the bump for the Mariners who would like to sweep the Tigers.

The one where Verlander returns to form

It appears that Justin Verlander seems to have found some of that rhythm that had proven so elusive this season. Unfortunately the Tigers bats couldn’t muster enough against Ryan Rowland-Smith and the Tigers dropped their 3rd game in a row.

Max St. Pierre was the offensive hero in Erie while Ramon Lebron, Alfredo Figaro, and Thad Weber all gave their team’s strong starts. And an outfield prospect hits the disabled list.

PREGAME: The Tigers lost consecutive games for the first time this season. Let’s hope they don’t lose consecutive series for the first time this season after tonight’s game goes final. Justin Verlander is still going for his first win, and his first “ace-like” outing. The Tigers starters were delivered a nasty blow over the last [...]

A Discouraging Turn

The Tigers have taken two turns through the rotation. The first was largely encouraging. A Max Scherzer 1 run effort and reasons for hope from Dontrelle Willis and Jeremy Bonderman highlighted the pass with rough but acceptable outings from Justin Verlander and Rick Porcello. This second turn though…oh man.

Brent Dlugach continues to tear up International League pitching, things were soggy in Erie, and West Michigan used a 5 run 11th inning to put away Bowling Green.

One way to look at this game is to think that the chances of the Tigers beating Hernandez weren’t that great, that this was a game they had a pretty good shot of coming out on the losing end anyways. Having said that…there’s losing and there’s getting smoked. The Tigers got smoked and there is very little to take away from this game that was encouraging.

Jacob Turner made his 2nd start, but Brayan Villarreal is stealing the show. Brennan Boesch continues to mash and Armando Galarraga has another encouraging start.

Bryan Pounds was the offensive star and Mark Sorensen highlighted the starting pitching efforts. And Erie played a game and a half but came up short.

Game 2010.009: Royals at Tigers

PREGAME: The year was 2007. Tensions were high in Tigertown as a solid offense and mixed starting pitching were routinely being undone by late inning collapses. Still, the team remained in contention and there was much desire to add relief arms. Octavio Dotel was toiling for the Royals and may have provided the relief help [...]
