I don't get going with Bummer here because that'll make him and Sousa (almost certainly) unavailable tomorrow

Yep, good point. No lefty out of the pen tomorrow, now.

There is no reason to get cute here. Just throw it over the middle of the plate. Stone is right.

TLR not using great judgment. 

Bummer missed in a lot yesterday too 

And here we go.

Yeah, this is a pretty dumb move, considering tomorrow's game, and that you have Graveman in the pen.

Well, Stony was just proved wrong

A 3 run lead shouldn't feel this tense with a reliever as good as Bummer, and yet...

I don't think Bummer knows where his sinkers are going right now.

Gotta get Schoop here, keep the tying run off the plate.

Is the 30 year old rookie a lefty?

Aaron let's try some strikes on the 1st and 2nd pitches .

He did ok. He got 2 DP balls of which they only converted one.

He gave up 2 walks and 2 hits in 1 inning. It was shit

It could be starting to fall off, jeez throw a strike

At least he isn't behind the wheel

I am surprised the Tigers haven’t used someone to pinch run for Cabrera

It's never easy is it?

Maybe Bummer isn't a good reliever.

Tanner Banks is, yeah.

 

And here we go, lefty with no control, against righty hitters. I really don't understand this.

Bummer this year so far man. Sheesh.

Haase is gonna get a chance to tie it.

If you are talking about the LH Sousa he just turned 27,

Foster is warming

Matt foster in the pen 

Can we stop using him in high leverage situations? As good as his “stats” are and for how “unlucky” he is, I’m tired of trying to make it work.
