I missed first three innings. Has he thrown any sliders or curves?

 

last time this was said????

Giolito is going to want to forget this start.

Uh, keep him in the park this time...

Started second inning setting up guys with curves, wasn’t really close

This is under explored. It’s probably easier just to throw to first. But whipping the ball at the guy so hard they miss the base in pain is an interesting strategy

I think Giolito should employ that strategy against Kepler

So will Berrios. 

Stop missing inside with the damn fastball!

Finally

Threw him an offspeed finally and Kepler did nothing

EE being out cause he was hit with a throw is kind of wack.

What exactly is the rule there? He misses first so he is automatically out? Or he was tagged out before he came back to touch the bag?

Couple of each. 

No excuse for not hearing "I got it" this season 

Oh god josh Donaldson terrifies me forever

Gotta tag him.

The Tigers are already in last place, so that is good.

He threw Kepler a ton of offspeed in the 2nd AB and he just fouled them off
