Tigers are flat out the best team in the AL Central, in my opinion. Need to win 5 of our next 7 on this home stand. I'm confident the pitching can hold down Seattle and Oakland's offenses.

Haha, one of the more predictable homers you'll see. I never knew that Ohman was supposed to be a long man.

Not a good game for Lillibridge. This is an embarrassing lineup that Kenny should be ashamed of (actually, he should be fired for, but that's coming at end of year).

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 08:00 PM) How can a team with a $125+ million dollar payroll be home to like 7 of the worst players in baseball? I was thinking earlier how 3 of our 6 best players have to be making close to the minimum.

Tigers have no problems getting hits with RISP, and we can't buy one these last two games.

Run saving play for Detroit there most likely.

I assume Peavy taken out due to some type of injury/soreness?

That a boy Beckham! Love to see him getting on top of a fastball.

Terrible call, terrible player....oh Kenny Williams

QUOTE (JoshPR @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 08:35 PM) I agree, but just because the guy threw 100 pitches his last start it doesn't mean anything Actually his velocity hasn't come close to what it was in the Cleveland game since his high pitch count that game.

Wonder how long before our hitters realize that the second time though the order, Peavy's throwing everything on the outer half.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 08:33 PM) This is what happens when your SS gets lazy on a tailor made DP... Alexei should have about 13-15 errors this year.

QUOTE (JoshPR @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 08:33 PM) That's not the problem, if you give teams extra outs they're gonna take advantage unless you're the sox Like we said though, Peavy's junk ball stuff might have worked first time though the order, but the Tigers were all over him the second time through. 91 mph tailing fastballs and rolling sliders only fool hitters so many times.

If Jordan4Life comes in here and mentions Summer of 2009, I'm going to throw my computer out the window.

AJP has to be only person in the park who can't tell that Peavy's fastball is tailing right down the plate. I miss the Peavy that had a slider that people missed.

Wow, what a pathetic inning by Peavy. Glad we're paying him a fortune to be a #4/5 starter.

QUOTE (mcgrad70 @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 08:28 PM) The whole inning is on him Peavy hasn't helped himself though. The two outs were made on absolute rockets.

Peavy with just an awful inning. He needs better command if he's going to have mediocre velocity. Sorry guys, he's not an ace yet.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 08:24 PM) Lucky that ball did not get up. What's AJ thinking calling on that pitch with bases loaded and how much Peavy's fastball is moving? Peavy is really struggling this inning with his command.

Whew, lucky break right there. That run is on you Alexei.

Peavy's getting a lot of the plate with these fastballs. Has nasty movement today but not the velocity we saw vs Cleveland.

I'm ok with that walk. Peavy has to avoid a fastball tailing over the plate to VMart here.

That might have been a strike out on the HBP that wasn't called.

Pierre's caught stealing seemed to turn around the momentum in this game.
