Deflated, Defeated: Rangers 7, Tigers 3

PrintIf the Tigers aren't going to put much effort into trying to win a game, how much effort should I put into a recap?
This one started off promisingly, with Detroit pouncing on an early scoring opportunity, instead of frittering away yet another chance. With two on and two out, Ramon Santiago smacked a double into the opposite field gap to drive in the first run of the game. Then Dusty Ryan followed that up with a single that brought in two more runs. A three-run lead for Luke French!
French got so excited that he gave the lead right back in the bottom half of the inning. With two outs in the inning, but two runners on, three straight Ranger batters got base hits. A single, triple, and double, to be specific. French almost gave up the cycle in one inning. What he did give up was four runs, and the Tigers went flat after that.
Detroit put two runners on to lead off the fourth, but the next three hitters went down. And from then until the ninth inning, another 12 Tigers batters failed to reach base. Perhaps adding to the indignity was former Tiger Jason Grilli recording six of those outs in the fifth and sixth innings, which turned out to be good for the win. (Another former Tiger, Guillermo Moscoso, closed out the game in the ninth.) Throw in three errors, and that pretty much sums up the night. It wasn't pretty.
Comment of the Night:
On the bright side...
We’ve only left 4 guys on base!
And your runner-up, but you have to read the comment directly before it for context.

The best part about tonight's game is
when it was over.
Welcome to Detroit>>Where the weak are killed and eaten.
I wish I had some clearly thought-out, emotionally grounded comments tonight...
…but I’m not coming up with anything. At this point, I’m just glad my brain has recovered from multimedia overload. As the game ended, I was sitting on the floor in front of a laptop, trying to type comments here, eat dinner, watch the postgame show on TV, listen to the postgame show on the radio (yes, I actually do that with regularity), and keep the cat away from my dinner, and all the while, there was a computer with iTunes on the other side of the room blaring out Phil Collins, Santana, and Rod Stewart (the iTunes thing was out of my control). So it was all a bit much.
But I will say this: In their last 3 games, the Tigers have scored one run, then two, and now three. Does that mean they’ll score four runs next time? Hey, if Verlander pitches the way he has for most of the season, that should be enough to win.

guess I picked a good one to pass out on
The Ian Casselberry method of ignoring a bad game…
(my apologies, fearless leader, I couldn’t resist)
Official BYB Juju Consultant...now accepting rally creature applications!
What is this?
I leave the country and the Tigers go 4-2. I come back, they go 0-3. This is a monumentally large bottle of suck.
Done.....need Dunn
The comment of the day SHOULD have been Ian’s opening statement:
“If the Tigers aren’t going to put much effort into trying to win a game, how much effort should I put into a recap?”
Exactly my feelings.
Sitting here in DC I don’t get to see many Tiger games, but I listen to as many as possible on XM, but I have never seen a team just seemingly give up in games as often as the Tigers this year do. There have been some great comebacks of course, but now it seems once they get down 2 or 3 runs, it’s just toast.
Now the good news – if you had told me that we would be in the lead by a game or two on August 1 at the beginning of the year, I would have ran up and hugged you like a long-lost poodle. So let’s start from here….we need Dunn. Not Willingham, not Scutaro, Dunn. He has single-handedly raised the averages of Zimmerman and Willingham here in DC – just cuz people are afraid of him. Put him behind Cabrera and watch the sparks fly. Willingham is good, but he’s .260, 17hr, 83rbi good without Dunn around him. Those are Ryan Raburn numbers….
In my opinion...
when the Tigers lose it reminds me of last year and Edgar Renterror. There was squandering last year by names that I would rather not repeat.
Don't drive angry!
Edgar Renteria
Is a loser. Everett is an improvement, but no by much. Tigers should have kept Omar Infante. imo

Cabrerra is our best?
Cabrerra is our best but when was the last time he helped the team with his bat? Most of his hits are without risp and he gets them with raw talent, no thinking. He lunges at balls two feet outside and lines them to right field. With runners on he gives away his at bat. If the two previous batters have walked on 8 straight pitches Cabrerra will swing at the first pitch two feet out of the strike zone and hit into a double play or pop up. If he doesn’t learn the art of hitting he will never be close to worth what he makes. And sadly he is our best. Right now, with men on base I would rather see Dusty Ryan at the plate than any of the others. Sad.
The Tiger’s radio announcers do a pretty good job of telling it like it is. The TV guys are hard to take. I really do not think that either of them are really Tiger fans. It just doesn’t seem to bother them when the Tigers lose. Last night Mario seemed more excited when the Ranger’s got the extra base hits than when the Tigers did something well. We don’t expect an overly partisan broadcast but for god’s sake show a little passion once in a while and act like you give a damm.
Bah!
They must make a trade for some hitting, or we can forget this year.
This is what our offense is facing tonight?
“Feldman pitched eight scoreless innings in a 2-0 victory over the Royals on Friday, his longest outing in 42 career Major League starts. He is now 4-1 with a 2.79 ERA in his past six starts” according to MotownTigers
On the bright side of that message of doom
We have JV on the mound…but he can’t pitch and give us run support too. We need a win today.

OK. So I have a theory.
I noticed that over the weekend that the Sox are playing the Yankees and the Twins are playing the Angels. And of coarse we are playing those stinkin Indians. So the odds of us winning are greater than either one of those two other central teams and we may regain 1st by a few more games like by 5. would be nice, eh?

Welcome to Detroit>>Where the weak are killed and eaten.
I just read this on MLB.com.... What about this guy as a Tiger?
Quoting MLB.com
“Joe Crede, Twins
Why he’s available: If the Twins are out of contention by the Trade Deadline, it’s possible that they could attempt to move Crede, who will be a free agent at the end of the ’09 season.
Will he go? Crede’s prior back problems might scare some clubs away, and while he’s been productive with the Twins, it means his $2.5 million contract could reach near $7 million thanks to performance bonuses. "
I’d take him. Doesn’t seem like a whole lot of money considereing what DD has spent a “basura” in the past
Welcome to Detroit>>Where the weak are killed and eaten.
Crede
But the Twins aren’t out of contention by the trade deadline, as we of all people ought to know. And there is no way Minnesota will someone to the Tigers who might be useful thsi year.
just a thought
that’s all. we will probably end up empty handed…..

The Tigers seem to be the best team at plugging leaks to the press when they’re up to something. You never hear a peep and then whamm-o, trade happens.

Welcome to Detroit>>Where the weak are killed and eaten.
I'm really not sure what to think
They got some pretty good pieces for him
I'm so ahead of my time, my parents haven't met yet
I was more surprised at the Mariners and Pirates trade.
Cleveland has been dismantling their team and Toronto wanted wouldn’t budge for Halladay. I think the Jays are stuck with Roy.
I found the new theme for this summers family reunion
I'm so ahead of my time, my parents haven't met yet
Yeah, everyone's talking about Halladay being the big trade
but it seems like no one wants to give the Jays what they want and the Jays won’t take what’s being offered to them.

The salary is high but the fact everyone found out Halladay wants to test the free agent market is what really made people go hellz naw.
That’s what I think. No one wanted a very high priced rental with how prospects are being viewed at the moment.
So seattle must think they are still in it
I guess Washburn is staying put
I'm so ahead of my time, my parents haven't met yet
The Wladimir trade is still suspect
But I think the M’s are going to put their heads down and try to make a run on that Wild Card.
I have heard that he is quite the joker
in the clubhouse
Welcome to Detroit>>Where the weak are killed and eaten.
everyone is just too scared not to laugh at his jokes

I'm hitting the refresh button on MLB Trade Rumors like constantly
If we get Rolen or Rios from the Jays, I may just cry.

I'm actually a smidge grateful for the trade instanity
otherwise i’d be REALLY bored at work
…but if we lose anyone I love, I will still cry
When the Weaver trade happened I swore I was done with the Tigers.
It brought back horrible Juan Gonzalez flashbacks. I couldn’t stay away though. Stupid love of Detroit Tigers baseball.
BREAKING NEWS
I have been traded to SBN’s Marlins blog for a commenter to be named later (CTBNL).
I'm so ahead of my time, my parents haven't met yet
There's much less pressure away from the big city,
but as a child, I always dreamed of posting asinine pictures in a playoff atmosphere.
I'm so ahead of my time, my parents haven't met yet
awww
I still have to pass a physical before the trade is official, and I have a hang-nail on my spacebar thumb
I'm so ahead of my time, my parents haven't met yet
Craig will treat you well over there. And they have a stunning lack of photos of chicks with helicopter hair, so you’ll be a good addition.

??? I don't get your reference
oh, wait….
Now I get it
I'm so ahead of my time, my parents haven't met yet
yeah
hence the Grandy comparisons. Both hit leadoff, yet profile as 3-5 hitters.

Thank Wieters for Youtube

Full disclosure
I have seen many a topless being on these intertubes….Leyland is one I was hoping to avoid
I'm so ahead of my time, my parents haven't met yet
Hey
Leyland’ll occasionally do his postgame interview with no shirt on, so I’ve already had the (dis)pleasure of seeing his bare chest. Usually it results in me just listening to the interview and not looking at the screen.

Is it bad that I’m eating lunch at 4:30?

I want work to be over
so I can go sell my camera lens and order a new one
so that my pix of verlander and everyone come out better
the last time I was at a game I took pictures of the players through my binoculars
to get close-ups
beat that

I don't know about you...
…but after having spent the day visiting and talking to people I haven’t seen in a long time, I feel so disconnected that it seems like last night’s game happened five weeks ago. When tonight’s game comes on I’m gonna wonder what I’ve been doing.
