HARRIS IS NOT A CLOSER!!! Watch dumb **** Hinch march him back out there to close again. Put Giles ass out there and see what he can do. He's the main guy with closer stuff and they gave up so much for him. The time is now to put him in that role!
I was listening to the radio in the 1st inning, they said Fiers is third in the league in run support. It's starting to get back to April again. If pitching shows up, the offense pees down their leg. If the offense shows up, the pitching is awful.
Ready for Giles' turn. Bregman needs to start hitting. Gurriel needs to be good, and quickly. Bullcrap game. DET scores 3 runs, 2 of which came from blunders. How many saves has he been shaky? All except 2
He's been shaky in more than 2...he likes to make things interesting. Against the Angels he needed a double play with bases loaded. Against Rays he needed a double play. The criticism is he allows way too much traffic and doesn't have closer stuff. I think that's fair given what we've seen. Not against trying Giles.
Getting close to the point where I hope they don't make a move to bolster the team (don't waste the prospects). To blow it when you got two outs and no one on is inexcusable and just a royal punch in the gut. This team hasn't come out of the break ready to make a run. Hope they avoid the sweep tomorrow but it's not like this schedule is getting any easier.
Our inability to gain ground is frustrating. Other teams we are chasing are losing. We are in a little spiral now. This needs to end now.
Well, the job belonged to Giles as soon as we made the trade. But let's face it, he was horrible during spring training and the early part of the season. All of our closers have struggled this season. I wouldn't mind giving Giles another chance.
Instead of piling on the guys that costed us this game, I'm just going to go ahead and say screw the Rangers. Especially Odor. **** that guy
Probably one of the easier schedules, too. If we don't shape up quickly, we could be 5 GB the Wild Card (forget the division) with 4 teams separating.
They had the game won, but let's blame everyone except the guy who dropped a little-league pop fly. That game was a bummer, thank god there's still tomorrow. It's incredibly difficult to suck the fun out of the game of baseball, but a bunch of you f@cktards are trying your best. Kudos.
