Corey Kluber was supposed to pitch tonight, then Cleveland realized oh wait, it’s only the Tigers, so they switched to Josh Tomlin (actually, Kluber has a hamstring strain. That’s the story anyway).
Reason to follow this game: the much-anticipated return of The Lobster, Kyle Lobstein. OK, “much-anticipated” may be a small exaggeration.
A guy named Kyle pitched for a while last night and didn’t do so well, but really, without that final touchdown, they had a chance to win that one. Oh wait, that was the Michigan game.
Jose Iglesias is out for “more than a couple games” with a finger that got bunt-failed, so the Tigers call up Dixon Machado to fill in.
Today’s Lineup:
- Anthony Gose, CF
- Ian Kinsler, 2B
- Miguel Cabrera, 1B
- JD Martinez, RF
- Victor Martinez, DH
- Nick Castellanos, 3B
- Tyler Collins, LF
- Bryan Holaday, C
- Dixon Machado, SS
Hoping Lobster works out for next year….saw Victor was batting 5 so Im watching MSU- WMU instead!
JUst checked what little was in the box score. At least when you look at all these pitchers who came up from Toledo you understand why Toledo finished in last place 59-81…just sayin!
It is going to happen….7 more losses and Ausmus, who is way smarter than all of us) will have had $350 million dollar lineup and will be officially under.500 as a manager.
At least he cleared up Victors hitting problems, in the Free Press he stated “Victor has been unlucky”…thanks Brad for clearing that up!..
