Note to fans: Don’t buy tix for Sundays

Tigers’ Sunday woes continue with a tough loss to the Twins, losing the series 2 games to 1.  Don’t look now, but Detroit most likely will have an even WORSE record in the month of May then they did in April.  So much for improving.  Its also a concern when, as a fan, I look at the starting lineup and wonder how Detroit will score any runs without Matt Joyce in the lineup.

The Good:

  • Gutsy 7th inning by Verlander.  Excellent outing overall, but gutting out that inning is what an ace does.
  • Gary Sheffield has put together a week of hitting that didn’t absolutely suck.
The Bad:
  • Brandon Inge doesn’t seem to hit well when he catches
  • Cruceta blew the game
  • After begging to see Ryan Raburn in center… he goes 0-4.
The Ugly:
  • Ok, Cruceta blowing the game is bad, but when your closer needs ZACH MINER to clean up his mess…
One week until Detroit comes to Oakland, and myself and 17 of my friends descend upon the coliseum to watch from a luxury box.  With Oakland’s most recent sweep of the BoSox… it could be ugly.  Probable pitching matchup:  Bonderman vs Harden.
