JV lasted seven innings and gave up only one run. He was in trouble early in the game but managed to escape relatively unscathed.
I can’t complain about the offense. They scored seven runs and did it with no help from Miggy. Miggy was 0-5 and his batting average is down to .301. Isn’t it time to give him some time off? I hate to say it, but he’s not really doing anything to help the team win, so put him on the 15 day DL and see if he can get healthier. As far as I’m concerned, the Tigers don’t have much to lose.
For what it’s worth, I wonder if JV can get his ERA under four by the end of the year. It sits at 4.68 right now. He’ll need another September like he had last year. I’m not sure if he still has it in him but we’ll see.
The Royals lost to the Indians. The Tigers are only a half game out.
Agree on Miggy, he is more liability than anything. Today is key for Scherzer to show he is among the tops. Don’t know if he has it in him. The second game is another ??
Well I think we all agree on Miggy…..and if they can’t get lot’s of people healthy fast…we won’t be watching much if any Tiger baseball in October.
