Apparently me deciding to pay attention this year isn’t stopping them from coming back to win critical games. Maybe this summer won’t be boring after all…

LOL.
Good bullpen pitching today and some key plays on defense. McKinstry and Meadows with huge plays with the glove and Tork with a great scoop.

Game ends just in time for tipoff of IL vs Uconn, can IL pull it off…

I think last year they mainly played the AL East to start the year and basically killed the season for them.

What hot take? Dude is a average sp.

Tigers notebook: Manager AJ Hinch in no rush to name a closer or set specific bullpen roles

Full article at the link:


…He, of course, is manager AJ Hinch and he very pointedly has not and will not (at least not yet) declare a closer or lock in any specific roles for his six leverage-eligible relievers. …

Foley thought he might get the call in the seventh inning Thursday. The White Sox had five straight right-handed hitters coming up. Instead, Hinch called on Shelby Miller. One, because Miller’s high-extension fastball and bullet slider offered a stark contrast to what they’d faced from lefty Tarik Skubal for six innings. Two, Hinch knew it wasn’t the last time those hitters would come to bat.

“Going into the game, there is no telling how it’s going to play out, both in situations and who we’re going to use,” Hinch said. “When I decided to use Shelby, that pocket is going to come around again in the ninth. I started thinking about how we’re going to get to the finish line and I liked the combination we had (Miller and Foley) with (lefty Andrew) Chafin sandwiched in between them.

“It’s not hard to put Jason Foley in the game. It’s harder to wait to put him in the game.”

It helped, too, that Foley’s power sinker, which he was throwing 100 and 101 mph, is a devastating pitch to most right-handed hitters and has been a particular problem for Robert and Eloy Jimenez, who hit in the third and fourth spots in the White Sox order.

2-1 Tigers after five innings.
