Nice to see a couple of west coast games that I can actually watch vs trying to stay up to midnight…

On deck: San Francisco Giants

:arrow_forward: Series: Three games at Oracle Park, San Francisco

:arrow_forward: First pitch: Friday — 10:15 p.m.; Saturday-Sunday — 4:05 p.m.

:arrow_forward: TV/radio: All three games on Bally Sports Detroit/97.1 FM

:arrow_forward: Probables: Friday — LHP Brant Hurter (0-0, 0.00) vs. LHP Robbie Ray (2-1, 4.40); Saturday — TBA vs. RHP Logan Webb (9-8, 3.42); Sunday — RHP Keider Montero (2-5, 5.62) vs. RHP Hayden Birdsong (3-1, 4.73).

Scouting report

:arrow_forward: Hurter, Tigers: He may not start the game. Manager AJ Hinch has not disclosed how he wants to get Hurter into his second big-league game. If he doesn’t make the traditional start, he is expected to pitch bulk innings. He was limited to one time through the order in his big-league debut Sunday, but is stretched out to go five or six.

:arrow_forward: Ray, Giants: This will be the one-time Tiger’s fourth start since coming back from Tommy John surgery. He’s not pitched more than five innings in his previous three starts. The velocity on his four-seamer is back up to 94-95 mph, and he’s gotten a lot of swing-and-miss (38.6%) in his early starts. Hitters are 1 for 9 against his slider. The home run ball has vexed him. He’s allowed five in 9.1 innings in his last two starts (three to the Reds in Cincinnati).

Watch Tyler Fitzgerald for the Giants. I picked the kid up a few weeks ago in my fantasy league, and he’s carried my team.

No, thankfully, I watched the first 3 1/2 innings and crashed.

Same. He has been on a Chris Shelton like tear.

3 steals last night.

12 HR in July/Aug.

Game changer

$1 in a $280 budget NL only dynasty league.

Fantasy MVP next year if he keeps this up

No bullpen anymore. They all think they’re starters.
