Good god...Gio meltdown

Oh my my....2 straight nice innings for Gio.

THIS!! I've watched baseball since 1977 (sorta), played at an "elite" level (high school), had a tremendous statistical career (ONE home run in 4 years of playing JV/Varsity-though it was a pretty cool homer--playoffs 1987), but this part bolded says IT ALL.

Mind boggling stupid. I think he just likes to interject himself into the game at times. Tonight was a full blown disaster and I am sure Gardenhire and company were....

Mad scientists at work

LOL no shit. What did I just witness. Palka is a joke in the field, but the boy can hit.

Tigers 4, Renteria 3 What a joke. The bunt. The stupid ass use of bullpen, then having Palka on the bench for the .165 hitting Thompson. What a crock

LOL...no shit

I didn't see/hear that. This is very disappointing managing of late. The team HAD been playing better, there are / were some signs for a nice 2nd half, but this guy keeps doing this nonsense. I am livid he used up Rondon and Avilan to get two hitters and is then stuck with friggin gas can Manaya and his 8.00 ERA... You pitch guys like Minaya in 8-0 games until they EARN the right to comeinto a tie game. Ricky FAIL

Renteria = atrocious tonight

Avilan and Rondon are credible pitchers...why the hell not let them pitch more in a tie game? Instead Ricky does 'situational pitching', which MAKES sense if you're winning, but is not worthwhile if you're tied/losing, because it means you have used up two pretty good pitchers and are left with slugs like Minaya. I am not blaming Renteria for the current state of affairs, but I hope they replace him at some point. This is just dumbass managing.

LOL Fathom...well there is that too.

Bad defense is par for the course. Manaya is terrible. Not sure why we see him in a tie game.

Geezus. What a laugh. Tell me again why this scrub Manaya is in this game?

LOL...he's atrocious with a piece of leather in his hand.

He didn't have good stuff. He battled and found a way to keep his team in the game. His velo went to shit late.....I like these type of games to see what a player is made of...how do you handle not having your best stuff.

Sorry that pitch was low

LOL...now we're ready for the last 3 innings.

No, but if a tree falls in the woods and no one is there, we're not sure if it makes a sound.

LOL...

Hold it Hold it Hold it...with your speed you should be hitting it on the ground and legging it out....

I had no idea Fiers had history, but absolutely NOT a purpose pitch. Wrong pitch, wrong guy, no reason. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind a little scuff up in baseball, I get tired of everyone (in all sports) being buddy buddy, but there is a time and place to send messages.

LOL a benches clearing situation on a first pitch curve ball that hits a guy? really? Dumb...that's like having a fight in hockey over a legit body check. Play the game.

LOL...lookie that

Nice at bat by Yoan.
