Al Avila said he is looking for experience in the new Tiger manager. I would imagine Gardenhire will get an interview.
Boyd’s last start was a near no-hitter; it will be interesting to see what he’s got tonight.
Today’s Lineup:
- Ian Kinsler 2B
- Alex Presley DH
- Miguel Cabrera 1B
- Nick Castellanos RF
- Jeimer Candelario 3B
- Bryan Holaday C
- Andrew Romine LF
- JaCoby Jones CF
- Jose Iglesias SS
Pitching: Matthew Boyd vs Ervin Santana
The Tigers Ptching Staff should be on Comedy Central….
Challenge question: Find a worse pitching staff than this one in Tigers history. I think 2003 was better than this. Actually, I know it was.
Here’s a hint: Rhymes with 1996.
Have you noticed? This is our 2nd day in sole possession of last place, 1/2 game behind the White Sox .003 pct points. Also the Twinkies are 4.5 games in front of the next 3 clubs with a shot. Even if the Twinkies lose all 3 with Cleveland they will probably make it to the wild card game. In that case, Norman and I will be rooting for the Twinkies.
Good for the Twins!… Great year for them, with a lot of no names… And only a couple of stars.
