That was certainly a major league at bat by Machado...........................not.

Why not use Cabrera here instead of Machado?

Welp, Kinsler isn't going there now.

What did we learn yesterday? That one Verday a week is apparently enough.

Well....they haven't had a 6 game winning streak this year either. I'm holding out for that one.

Sure is better than a walk!

Although Victor is not in the top ten in the AL in GIDP, it sure seems like he should be.

A reasonable goal for the rest of the season is to find someone in the lineup that will replace Avila's ability to walk. We're gonna miss that OBP.

With all the lousy stuff that has happened to the Tigers this season, you just have to smile at Kinsler and Igelsias playing defense and turning a double play.

It's time for the knockout punch here................

This Bo didn't know baseball...........................

Let's liven it up a bit and talk about how the Tigers are going to miss their #2 batter..................

Who knows? A few tweaks in the offseason and the Tigers could be right back in the thick of things. Just need the veterans to be their normal selves. Of course, they finally found their closer and traded him away......so there is that.........

Yes......since Avila's gone now.

Fadeaway costly The bad luck for Al Avila is that his son, who carried surprisingly heavy trade cachet a month ago, has had a miserable July. Alex’s fade might have cost the Tigers an extra prospect, either from the Cubs, or from another team that earlier would have been hot to add a left-handed power hitter, with a big on-base percentage, who could also help at first base. From an article that I read this morning. I guess I'm not the only one who thought this a few days ago. Of course this was from Henning's article so......take it with a grain of salt.
