I agree for the most part. But I'm glad we're not yet at the Neshek point of "ohh noooo he's coming in the game!!" -- which I thought might have been crossed. lol
should have swept but i'll take our first series win of the year. let's not act like these tigers are from 2001, they had only lost one game before facing the stros.
phew. First series win. That is huge...I remember Hinch saying how Gregerson was always calm and steady in the 9th...good example of why some guys are just made to pitch the 9th
I was just going to post that this offensive doldrums lineup didn't do too bad... Having Jake on the base paths made a big difference, Kratz was meh, and Gonzo contributed.
Yep, stat boys wanna dismiss the impact of a game that Jake makes but I'll take his speed, focus and enthusiasm every single time.
I think most people on here like Jake a lot as long as he is at least competent at the plate. Last year after a hot start, he wasn't even competent though. If he can develop into a .260 ish hitter, he can be a good mlb player
