4 of the 5 hitters after Avi are easy outs vs LHP. Either start playing Boni or release him and pick up Ruggiano.

Our hitters have a combined -1.2 WAR on the season. Four teams have had a negative offensive WAR since 2000. Tigers twice in 2002-2003 and lost 100+ in both seasons. Diamondbacks in 2004, lost 100+/. Marlins in 2012 and lost 93.

Ouch

Wow was Steve Stones theory on hitting absolute S***

 

If major league players are that afraid of hitting with 2 strikes they need to GTFO....

 

Lots of hitting coaches and pitchers believe that as well.

 

"This is a game the Tigers should win. The best I've ever seen our guy pitch."

How the hell did that ball drop???

 

Kinsler knew he was out.

 

Playing deep but didn't seem to bust it at full speed to get there.

 

Sigh.

Sox plane landed at 2:36am. Long trip....maybe seeing loved ones for the first time in 11 days... Tired maybe?

 

What is the excuse all the other times we didn't hit?

And we're 10-7 in one run games because of those late-game comebacks and Duke/Robertson.

 

 

Kinsler....no excuse there. War of mental mistakes in this one.

+1

Quintana better stop f***ing around here if he wants the win. Expecting this offense to score him more than two runs is insanity.

Gotta point.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 5, 2015 -> 09:33 PM)
We did the rundown!

I wasn't watching, only 1 throw???

Actually 8/11 Cespedes vs. Quintana, four homers. 8/12 now.

 

Bizarre game....except lack of offense from both teams unsurprising.

Nice DP score some RUNS!

Q pitching great

Either one or two, I've been drinking.

Minnesota was down 5-0 against the Brewers, now tied...and that Chi Chi Gonzalez kid on the Rangers is impressive. Seems he hasn't given up a run yet.

The offense is what it is. There will be the few days we hit the ball and score a ton of runs but most of the time we are hitting like this and not doing anything. It's just bad

We don't have a hit since the 1st inning?

Ryan making it look easy

Can we put Price down for a shutout Saturday?

Have to give the Twins credit. If it wasn't a team in the division you're supposed to hate, it's actually a good baseball story.

The Sox are such lazy f***ing hitters.

Twins know how to hit....

 

Watch that team hit... they don't swing at every pos pitch the pitcher throws.

Ok I will hold you too it. :lol:
