[House of Cards]

this game has been aggravating to the max!

[tron777]

Tigers lose the game and the series 4-2. Tigers record at this early stage in the season is pretty bad at 7-12. The Royals come to Motown tomorrow night at 7:10pm as rookie Casey Mize takes the mound.

Reds starters give up TWO earned runs in the three game series and the offense scores 20 runs. They are swept three straight. Unacceptable!!

Only time the Reds led today was early on at 1-0!

They better start kicking some big time butt next in St Louis this weekend!!

Then they face the fireball Dodgers next week in Los Angeles!

Next is a 6 games road trip starting with 3 vs the Cardinals.

Sonny Gray squares away vs Kwang Hyun Kim at 8:15 Fri.

Is there a shrink in the AV house because the Reds are making me go ...!!

Close but no cigar YET again, as this time they got edged 5-4!

Wade Miley takes on John Gant at 2:15 Sat.

The Tigers also suck moose balls losing 6-2 against KC. Next one is this afternoon at 1:10pm. Matthew Boyd who is pitching well gets the start.

Does this sound like The Reds?

Detroit — It’s something Brad Ausmus said often during his managerial tenure with the Tigers. And it’s as true now as it was then.

When you aren’t hitting, when you aren’t putting runners on base, there’s no energy, no verve — it looks like your compete level is low.

AJ Hinch didn’t know much about that during five winning seasons in Houston, but he can relate now.

The Tigers, who were beaten by the American League Central-leading Kansas City Royals 6-2 Friday night, are in one of those ruts. It was their seventh loss in the last eight – and it’s been the same tired script.

Start with a stagnant offense. Coming into play Friday, the Tigers have produced less than two runs a game on average over the last seven. They’ve struck out 77 times in those games, 13 times Friday.

Boyd pitched 8 strong innings of 1 run ball and Tigers LOSE 2-1. Thanks again to lack of offense. Next one is up for tomorrow afternoon with Michael Fulmer giving it a go.

You HIT THE NAIL RIGHT ON THE HEAD, Bro!! Plus the bullpen needs a shake UP, also!

[MVWxObserver]

The guys got blanked 2-0! And as of today now in the cellar!

(Never would even believe they won 6 games in a row in early April, at the rate they're performing now!).

Rubber match at 2:15 Sun as Luis Castillo squares away vs Jack Flaherty!

[MVWxObserver]

So beyond aggravating as the guys have now dropped 7 in a row!! 5-2 today!

Next is 3 games vs the powerhouse Dodgers to round out the road trip.

Tyler Mahle takes the mound vs Julio Urias at 10:10 Mon.

[tron777]

Got killed 4-0 today. We will try and avoid getting swept tomorrow afternoon at 1:10pm. Spencer Turnbull gets the call.

Tyler Mahle takes the mound vs TBD at 10:10 Mon.

Yeah first the bullpen implodes and now the offense! Hoping to right the ship in LA...but the Reds have historically performed poorly on the left coast in past years so not holding my breath!

[tron777]

No surprise but the Tigers lost yesterday 3-2. We head to Chicago to take on the White Sox. José Ureña gets the start tonight at 8:10pm.

[MVWxObserver]

Talk about the psychology of baseball!! Redlegs at least for now finally snapped out of their skid as they shockingly beat the Dodgers 5-3 last night!

Jeff Hoffman takes on Walker "Ferris" Buehler at 10:10 Tues.

[cloudy72]

Redlegs beat Ferris Bueller and the First place Dodgers again - this time 6-5!

[tron777]

Hot damn! Tigers won last night 5-2! Miggy with career homer #489 in that game. 8:10pm tonight with Casey Mize taking the mound.

Prayerfully Cincy can do a sweep on L.A. this afternoon!!

[MVWxObserver]

Sonny Gray squares away vs Clayton Kershaw at 4:10 Wed to round out the road trip.

Could be questionable whether the guys can, in part, get a sweep today as recently called up (had been on the DL due to a back injury) Gray has acknowledged that he still hasn't found his flow on the mound with his pitches or his body.

[MVWxObserver]

Cincy took 2 out of 3 from LAD as the guys got killed 8-0 on Wed!!

A day off Thurs and then a 5 games home stand starting with 3 vs the Cubbies.

Wade Miley takes on TBD at 7:10 Fri.

[tron777]

The Tigers game yesterday in Chicago was PPD due to rain. A double header will ensue today. Game 1 at 5:10pm with Casey Mize starting with game 2 at 8:10pm with Matthew Boyd starting.

[MVWxObserver]

The guys won 8-6!

Luis Castillo takes on Zach Davies at 4:10 Sat.

[tron777]

The Tigers suck. They lost 3-1 and 11-0 in their DH with the White Sox.

Last night, the team traveled to NYC to take on the Yankee's. They lost game 1 of the series 10-0! Game 2 is today at 1:05pm as Spencer Turnbull gets the nod.

[MVWxObserver]

Rough day for the Redlegs as there was a rumble in the 8th as problem child Amir Garrett was on the mound in relief and he ticked off a Cubbie. Garrett has a history as there was a highlight from another rumble in May 2018 vs the Cubs when Garrett was on the mound then, too. Anyway, after all that the guys got edged 3-2!

Rubber match at 1:10 Sun as Tyler Mahle squares away vs Trevor Williams.
