That LeFlore guy was pretty exciting to watch. He would at least sell a few tickets. That is of course, if they could sell tickets.

Rowan & Martin reruns at least have Goldie Hawn .......

Thank goodness.

Not sure who this "someone else" guy is, but I think he's the one that I think fits best with this team....................

The Tigers team success of the near future relies solely on hiring any manager not named Lloyd McClendon.

The sooner they part ways with McClendon, the better.

Fill me in here. What do the Tigers see in Victor Reyes? He seems to have very little upside to me. Thoughts?

Is it too late for Tory Lovello?

TMI

Getting back to the next Tiger game......................what's the over/under on the Tigers striking out 12 times tonight? They are averaging 15.3 K's per game so far......easy call......I'll say over. They sure aren't putting much pressure on the opposition's defense.

That's 5 innings per game that they are giving away by putting their tails between their legs and walking back to the dugout. They led the league in strikeouts last year averaging almost 10 Ks per game.

Next to last. They hit three more than the Marlins. Which means........they have contact hitting type players using a homerun hitting approach. Put the D*** ball in play!

Several different hitters in the Tiger lineup this year...........but Legendary Lloyd is still teaching his strikeout philosophy.........even without the title of hitting coach. The Tigers led the league in strikeouts and were second to last in bases on balls last year. It appears that as long as Lloyd is with this team this is not going to change. The Tiger hitters recognition of the the strike zone is horrible. Put the d*** ball in play.

The fact that McClendon told him anything at all was his downfall.

Cecil Fielder's home run that hit the roof and went over back in 1993 (I think) I remember at the time feeling sorry for those fans that had left their seats either to go home or use the rest room or to get a snack. I myself, never left my seat if Cecil was coming to the plate soon. BTW, I believe that game ended in extra innings on a Mickey Tettleton home run. That was a special night to be at the ball park.
