Its hard to get steals when you get so many home runs.

What dumbass decided pitch quality should be judged on a scale from 4 to 6?

i don't necessarily have an issue with this lineup.  our lineup is always a little wonky vs lefties.  plus, tuve is out, and obviously today is breg's turn to dh so it's musical chairs around the infield.

but in similarly small sample sizes vs lefties:

reddick (18ab) .278/.316/.500

white (29ab) .241/.353/.276

just an observation, because reddick was always the guy who couldn't hit lefties.  i would love to see him exposed to more lefties while he's seeing the ball as well as he is, and boyd isn't overpowering, but he's having a really nice season.  maybe reddick can give us a solid ph appearance off their middling bullpen. 

either way, we need to see some pitches, otherwise we're stuck with boyd for 7+ innings.

let's go bp!

[Mo Horn 8849]

[Scraps 13562]

Well it is confirmed....we can still hit

[UTexasFight 9497]

Hey Detroit, we’re better than you

Man the bottom of this order...

[henrygandorf 29192]

god i'm loving the 6-7-8-9 in our order lately.

also pregame i looked at our pvb vs boyd, and chirinos had by far the most previous success.

i should play dfs.

jake and kemp are a HUGE part of the success formula for this team

adding brantley allowed yuli to hit 6th (the highest he should be hitting) and reddick to hit 7th (which is awesome, considering how well he's played this year).

injuries clouded things last year, but this is more how it should be.

i would even consider hitting reddick 2nd (like the old days) against righties until altuve is back.  stretch out the lineup more.

[Scraps 13562]

Harrison moving up on that shit is unacceptable

[henrygandorf 29192]

he's laboring.  i like it.

[henrygandorf 29192]

looking ahead, looks like porcello-price-sale this weekend.

guessing cole-martin-peacock for us.

[tx 3 putt 77060]

peacock needs to pitch  better with a 3 run lead 

he does not look sharp tonight 

[henrygandorf 29192]

^^^ yep, zero command, but looks to be decent stuff.

strom needs to calm him down, and we need to get dirty with their bullpen.

[tx 3 putt 77060]

lulz@strom and hinch talking with him after that inning 

[SimonBolivar 10958]

Meh I'll take Springer leading off.

[WBT 20614]

Where is Chirinos going?  With red hot George at the plate

[Scraps 13562]

This asshole wants to start some shit? We will fucking end you guy with a partly racist last name

[Scraps 13562]

Enos Cabell

[TonyTexas 10516]

Astros defense has been stellar during this hot streak

[tx 3 putt 77060]

Great inning for peacock 

[SimonBolivar 10958]

Worst Tiger pitcher of all time and they can't get on base.

[henrygandorf 29192]

i’m listening to tigers feed in the car and they are shocked this guy is getting outs. 

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

jake day

[tx 3 putt 77060]

Jake from Rake Farm !!!!!!!

[Jebus 1309]

[tx 3 putt 77060]
