The Tigers havent played anyone good yet.

Wait... fuck!

4/28/2013 10:09:15 PM

Jaybee just got struck out by a Tigers pitcher during that post

4/28/2013 10:12:16 PM

5 of the 8 series that the tigers have played so far are against teams with winning records

Cousin of Ron Mexico and owner of the best slider in baseball

Andddd 3 Ks to end the inning

Atlanta is way not good. City or team.

4/28/2013 10:29:44 PM

Lol i wont say all that now, but i think Atlanta's rotation is slightly overrated. The NL east is very week beyond washington and atlanta, so those two teams can pick up some easy wins.

4/28/2013 10:34:49 PM

and remember, they still are waiting to get back their best pitcher from last year (at the time)

4/28/2013 10:35:55 PM

Not sure what that means. You can't really bank on things like that, and Cy Young winner David Price is a pretty good example in how he's doing pretty terrible this year. I think we're at the point where we've already established how you don't know what you're talking about and like to run your mouth on here after having a few Manhattans or whatever, though...

4/28/2013 10:50:15 PM

of course you cant count on that, but I would rather have a pitcher who was doing really good before an injury coming back than a pitcher that was sucking ass before getting injured coming back.

4/28/2013 10:55:02 PM

How is BJ doing for the Bravos? Lol.

4/28/2013 10:57:35 PM

is jaybee trying to say any of the braves pitchers are as good as price? i cant tell what he's talking about

4/28/2013 11:47:29 PM

Scherzer got dat work

4/29/2013 9:36:55 PM

Smyly is awesome as a setup guy. Too bad he should be taking Porcello's rotation spot soon

4/29/2013 10:17:31 PM

Ibtsweep

4/30/2013 11:52:28 PM

guess we can't beat you in every series like we did in the first one

[Edited on May 1, 2013 at 12:02 AM. Reason : "Congrats on beating our 3 and 4 starters with your 1 and 2"]

4/30/2013 11:59:39 PM

Seriously, no one in the AL outside of the Rays can match up with Verlander, Scherzer, Foster, and Sanchez

You guys won 2 of 3 at home vs our 3, 4, and auto-loss 5 (porcello)

We're going to sweep

5/1/2013 12:10:32 AM

we got our ace going tomorrow, you'll have to settle for a 2-1 series win, just like we got a few weeks ago

and i've never heard of Foster, maybe he's related to Houston Street

5/1/2013 12:14:12 AM

I apologize, i may be the first person ever to type an o instead of the intended i since they are so far apart.


Lol "soft toss" scott diamond is your ace?

We have Sanchez going, who would be the ace on half of the teams in MLB

Lotsa bragging ITT

if Detroit is so good, why'd they get swept by the lowly Angels?

the A's have won 5 straight against them and they are an 'overrated' team, right?

5/1/2013 2:21:25 AM

Wait, didnt the A's take a beat down from the tigers in Oakland?

Gtfo

Also lol @lowly Angels. They'll still finish with a better record than the A's. 13 of the A's 16 wins are against teams with losing records and are tied for the most home games played so far.

Beat some good teams and then tiptoe back into this thread

[Edited on May 1, 2013 at 2:38 AM. Reason : M]

5/1/2013 2:32:43 AM

The only 'beat down' was the last game we played against you. Won the first one, and the second was closer than the score indicated- watched the entire game. Last year's playoffs weren't exactly a blowout either, even though you were gifted the first two games at home, despite a worse overall record.

Detroit sucks on the road. They did last season as well.

Wouldn't crown them champs just yet.

5/1/2013 2:42:42 AM

You mean the games valverde handed to you guys that made the series closer than it should be?

5/1/2013 2:51:38 AM

Your division is tougher than I think you realize

Good luck winning on the road

Your team is far from perfect, especially if you get swept and blown out by the Angels. You keep insisting your pitching rotation is the best in baseball, yet they didn't seem to show up in the WS when it counted most. Maybe it's early in the season and you should wait til after the All-Star break to crown yourselves champs?

5/1/2013 2:56:20 AM

You are wrong, the hitting didnt show up. They got shut-out twice.

We added torii hunter and have v-mart back.

The AL central will be better than last year but the Tigers are still the best. And seriously, you cant even argue a better 1-4 starters in MLB

he was our best pitcher last year, so yeah i guess

5/1/2013 1:29:02 PM

Leyland conceded the game by putting in that fat toad rondon

We need to send him back to the minors and regain his value and then dump him on a team

5/1/2013 3:17:27 PM

Parmaleeeeeeeeee

5/1/2013 3:35:14 PM

Another sweep.....it was the Astros though....

5/5/2013 7:54:39 PM

speaking of the Astros, and more specifically Phil Humber, can any of you stats junkies tell me the last time a pitcher started a season 0-7

5/5/2013 8:06:02 PM

Not sure, but he has the record for the most losses in April.

5/5/2013 8:06:48 PM

I sent an email to baseball-reference.com

it'll be interesting to see if they respond

5/5/2013 8:32:25 PM

^^ True

5/5/2013 8:58:10 PM

tonight was the real Sanchez

lol at him being some kind of ace

5/19/2013 2:00:12 AM

Yes, because a 3.69 career ERA and 7.8 K/9 sucks

The Twins would nut themselves to have him

5/19/2013 7:59:23 AM

we suck again, wtf

5/19/2013 11:09:03 PM

Anytime that fucking idiot leyland puts phil coke in the game, they might as well end it

Coke may be the worst pitcher that has ever stayed with the team more than a year

5/19/2013 11:16:24 PM

verlander and fister getting blitzed in back to back games is confusing

5/19/2013 11:23:13 PM

Imagine how much better the Tigers would be if Fielder and Cabrera split time at DH/First Base and they got a real Third Baseman.

5/19/2013 11:46:57 PM

Everyone assumed martinez would hit...but after 2major knee surgeries he looks like a shell if his old self.

We have a top 10 prospect in Nick Castellanos that we moved from 3B to LF too

I think its the bullpen that needs help honestly.

[Edited on May 19, 2013 at 11:59 PM. Reason : H]

5/19/2013 11:58:52 PM

no doubt the bullpen needs help and is the permanent problem/weakness...
but the starters have had some heavy struggles that baffle me. still the best rotation in baseball, but underperforming

5/20/2013 5:30:59 AM

Cabrera is ridiculous right now

5/23/2013 11:28:20 PM

Tigers!

[Edited on May 25, 2013 at 12:34 AM. Reason : C]

5/25/2013 12:13:58 AM

leyland sucks... to have this much talent and only be 6 games over in the worst division in baseball.

time to give someone else a try.

6/30/2013 9:17:52 PM

Tigers talking to marlins

Apparently trade on the table is stanton, pierre, cishek for SP alvarez, nick castellanos (top 10 minor league prospect), bruce rondon, casey crosby (tigers' 3rd best prospect), avisail garcia, and catching prospect mccann

That pretty much guts our minor league system

7/12/2013 1:03:45 AM

Stanton? fuck

7/12/2013 1:22:03 AM

Dombrowski has a good relationship with the marlins. The Tigers are going to have to be the 1st or 2nd highest salaried team in a couple years if/when stanton's contract is up (if they trade for him)and they have to re-sign scherzer and austin jackson

I mean vmart and torii hunter will be off the books, but still

7/12/2013 1:36:10 AM

Quote :

"• From Elias Sports Bureau: Miguel Cabrera is the first player in major league history with 30 home runs and 90 RBIs before the All-Star break. Last year, through 91 games he was at .327/20/74, this year he's at .366/30/94. Remarkable. "

7/12/2013 11:51:47 AM

he's an animal... hopefully no roids.

7/12/2013 12:05:23 PM

Cabrera might be the best hitter in baseball but he also might be the worst defensive third baseman

Don't you guys have somebody you can play at 3rd and let Miggy play DH?
