this reliever has piped a few middle-middle fastballs. That's not a "tip the cap" moment.

No different than the regular season. We've been too inconsistent on offense all year. Let's just hope we put two 8 run games together the next couple games.

4 hits and a walk isn't near perfect.

HTH


Actually it is

None of thise have been strung together
They have hit their spots the vast majority of the time and kept our hitters guessing

They had a good plan and executed it to near perfection

Think offseason priorities are pretty clear. Half this lineup is a black hole.

What in the literal **** are we doing?

Being a mediocre team that doesn't adjust like they've been all year.

Tigers are too hot to just hand it to us and this 2024 team doesn't ever once take it.
Maybe they should be swinging at those 1st pitch fastballs down the middle of the plate, huh?

Or is it dumb offense to swing at fastballs down the middle?

Well, you guys don't want them swinging at the first pitch, which, has pretty much been fastballs down the pipe.


If you are going to swing at the first pitch because it is a fastball down the middle, don't pop it up or hit it weakly to the shortstop. How about that for a "something to work on before next season"?

Yeah, they weren't facing Skubal every game in April
And May.
Doesn't seem to matter if it is Skubal or anybody else.

We needed regular season Framber. We got post season Framber.

Hader here doesn't make any sense. We might need him tomorrow and Thursday... why wear him down at all and give them more looks at him?

They aren't doing that. They are watching the first pitch fastball down the middle and then hitting the fastball/changeup/off-speed that is on the edge of the zone weakly.

You guys would go absolutely nuts if they got outs swinging at 1st pitch fastballs down the middle.
