He shoulda done the Home Run Derby. Not doing it clearly messed up his home run swing! /s

 

Glad he see he finally hit the 100 RBI total. What a fantastic season from our ace hitter!

Abreu! Finally! 34-100.

Crushed to RCF. I think he goes on a power roll for the next few games.

Only the 4th rookie to have 30 homers, 30 doubles and 100 RBIs in a season. (Trosky, Williams, Pujols)

Avi trying to boost his value for fantasy projections heading into next season

Crushed to RCF. I think he goes on a power roll for the next few games.

I remember thinking much earlier in the season that he might easily hit 50. He sure has been a pleasure to watch.

I hope so too...I could use some money (re: fantasy baseball)

You and me both. I had the riskiest draft ever that included early picks of Abreu, Tanaka, Hamilton, Sale, and Stanton. I'm obviously in first place.

Is that the 5th HBP today? Hopefully, Tank is OK.

Gillaspie PH RBI 1B, 5-5 B7! Fun game

Nice hit by Gillaspie. He'd be fine as our third baseman next year provided his defense gets no worse than it was this year. Would be nice to sit him versus some tough lefties.

Great observation. Can yu imagine how mad fans would have been on here had he competed in the derby and had these second half HR numbers? Wow.

Avila with a huge two out bomb to put the tigers ahead 5-4 in the bottom of the 8th...Nathan on

 

Has converted 15/16 saves

 

No clue why they threw him a curve instead of a cutter....just idiotic

But he's actually been a better hitter the last three weeks....just not getting the homers and rbis

Surkamp been pitching well lately.

Surkamp saw 5, struck out 4. Not bad at all.

That he has. Wonder if they keep him as a 2nd lefty (Hoping we acquire a LH SU man) or let him go back to starting.

I don't think they have him go back to starting. Even in AAA, it seemed like the 3rd time around he would get roughed up a bit.

Leury Garcia has an OPS near .250 since the ASB

Have they gotten Suzuki out all season long?

 

Why go to the offspeed stuff?

 

 

Draft pick draft pick....yadda yadda....at least Abreu and Garcia are lighting it up.

In the draft pick race, this is a good one to lose anyway. It's not like a starting pitcher is getting screwed.

Suzuki is hitting .319 in 191 ABs career against us, .413 in 46 this year.

Abreu too many foul balls; gotta put it in play. Is K coming?

Probably. 11 pitches so far

It would be the perfect "tank" loss. Abreu, Avi and Semien all played well.

14 pitch AB... great job
