Crazy that Tigers have worse run differential than us but are 9 and 8.

It's remarkable how all but a few players are performing dramatically below their career averages, and their numbers last year.

Their hitting approach was suspect last year and they fired the assistant hitting coach, yet retained Jacoby. I guess they did not get to the root of the problem. These guys save their hardest swings for 2 strikes.

This might possibly be the worst lineup we've put out in the last three seasons.

TOStateofMind · Post #113 » by **TOStateofMind** » Sun Apr 23, 2017 8:31 pm

What in the world just happened..the angels just got a free run cause of the ump wow

Fairview4Life · Post #114 » by **Fairview4Life** » Sun Apr 23, 2017 8:36 pm

The ump called a quick pitch, which ends up being ball 4 and a walk and was straight **** trash.

This team is borderline unwatchable.

So_Fresh · Post #116 » by **So_Fresh** » Sun Apr 23, 2017 8:57 pm

3-0 count and Trash (Travis) grounds out. He can't even hit with the count in his favor.. :banghead:

Please do something about this offense! It's unwatchable right now.
