    A tip of the hat from both Hosmer and me to Annibal for 6 2/3 no-no. I just hope we get him a couple of runs to help.

    Does Brad get confused with J.Wilson And A. Wilson?

    This was an awful series. Reminds me of a number of other ones this year.

      i concur Kevin – the only bright spot was Sanchez finally pitched a great game against a pretty good hitting team… but now the hot BOS comes to town for a 4 game series beginning today w/an afternoon game – which after a (demoralizing) night game usually doesn’t bode well for DET (if they don’t get their beauty sleep)

      DET has 9 game vs MIN, 7 vs CLE, 6 vs CWS, 3 vs LAA, 3 vs ATL…so they still could string some wins together – if they start ‘finding ways to win games’ rather than the default (finding ways to lose) pattern as of late

      Cabrera’s bicep issue could be a deja vu – cause for concern

      It appears ‘the injuries’ issue may provide Ausmus the cover (excuse) he needs to get re-upped next season – even if they miss the playoffs, which (in my opinion) would add insult to injury if they do miss the playoffs – so DET might as well just win 30 of the remaining 42 games – if its inevitable that Ausmus will be back next year.

    This is one demoralized team. All aspects are failing. Bright spots like our young starters (and JV) are being obliterated by everything else.
