Game 2013.71: Red Sox at Tigers

The Detroit Tigers (39-31, 1st place, 3.5 games ahead of Cleveland, losing streak at 2) continue their home stand with a 4-game set against the Clay Buchholz-less Boston Red Sox (44-30, 1st place AL East). The forecast says Detroit weather all good for the first couple games, fair chance of rain over… [the full story]

Game 2013.70: Orioles at Tigers

blah. That's my response to last night's game. So blah that we'll skip the regular format, and get a new fresh post up ASAP. Yes, JV looks off, but as I discussed before, he's actually been pretty good. Well, last night was bad, but I'm not worried. I have faith in Ricky P to pitch us to victory.… [the full story]

Game 2013.69: Orioles at Tigers

39-29, 1st place, 5 games up on Kansas City who is 8-2 over their last 10 and has passed Cle to move into 2nd. Good solid win yesterday. Scherzer was good, but not great, on his way to his ML leading 10th win. I don't think anyone would argue with me on that. Thank about that for a second, the guy… [the full story]

Game 2013.68: Orioles at Tigers

38-29, 1st place, 4.5 games up. Which is the 2nd biggest division lead in the majors. The Tigers took care of business in Minnesota taking the three game series with the win yesterday. Good teams have to win series against no so good teams. So good job, boys. A much more formidable opponent rolls… [the full story]

Game 2013.67: Tigers at Twins

Detroit Tigers: 37-29, 1st Place (4.5 ahead of Cleveland).  Here are a few of the things that we know, statistically, about the Detroit Tiger offense at this point in the season: They struggle on the road (.259/.726, vs. .302/.825 at home). They are more likely than most teams to score 2… [the full story]

32-26, 1st place, 2.5 games up on Cle. Well, the Tigers are a frustrating 4-6 over their last 10, including 3 games where they failed to score a run in the first 9 innings of the game, but yet they managed to pick up a game on the struggling Tribe, losers of four straight. In [...]

Detroit Tigers: 31-26, 1st Place (2 ahead of Cleveland). This afternoon’s game will be a rubbery affair between Detroit and Tampa Bay who have split the first two of the series, but also between Detroit’s Feast or Famine offense, who put up 10 runs Tuesday but 0 last night.  The indicator is twitching toward the [...]

Detroit Tigers: 31-25, 1st Place (2 ahead of Cleveland). Despite leaving all of 12 runners on base (including failing to score with bases loaded and nobody out), the Tigers offense was in Feast mode against the previously 8-0 Matt Moore, knocking him out after 2 innings on their way to a 10-1 victory. Anibal was [...]

Detroit Tigers: 30-25, 1st Place (1 ahead of Cleveland). It’s a big week in the D: Detroit take on the tough Tampa Bay Rays (who, while in 4th place, have a better record than the Tigers), then have a 3-game set with the Cleveland Indians. The Tigers just got back from a 1-4 road trip, [...]

30-24, .5 ahead and in first place, winning streak at 1. Torii “300″ Hunter is back in the lineup and Rick Porcello throws sinkers, so today’s victory is, of course, assured. The stone glove, Teflon hands, and paper bat of Ramon Santiago will not prevent it! Sorry, Ramon. I’m sure you’ll have a good game. [...]

29-24, still in first place by .5, losing streak at 4. Tigers sapping your strength these days? How’d you like to be an Indians fan right about now? Looks like both teams are trying to stay out of first place. “Go ahead.” “No, after you.” “Please, I insist.” “No, I really couldn’t.” “Age before beauty.” [...]

29-22, 1st place, 1.5 games up on Cle. Last night’s game was playing out rather nicely until Sanchez took a sharp detour in the 7th that resulted in a 4 run frame for the Pirates, and a 5-3 loss for the Tigers. The Tigers now find themselves in peril of the dreaded 1-3 series, or [...]

29-21, 1st place, 2.5 games up. What a game last night. Hate to lose a close one at home, but props to Pittsburgh. Grilli was even better than advertised. We always knew that he could throw heat, but that slider was nasty. Cabbie just looked silly, and I still have no idea what Prince was [...]

29-20, 1st place, 2.5 games up. Great team win last night. JV was good, not great, and the bats put up enough runs to cover up some poor 8th inning pitching and fielding. Valverde came in and gave up his usual baserunner (who somehow didn’t steal 2nd base – worst advance scouting of all time?), [...]

Detroit Tigers: 27-20, 1st Place (.5 ahead of Cleveland). The Tiger winning streak ended at four last night as the Twins got to Doug Fister for three runs early, and then quieted the Tiger bats for the 3-2 victory.  The big blow was a home run by none other than Joe Mauer, who came to [...]
