    I'm ready to give up on my Tigers

    This team is just lost. No defense, no middle relief, no speed and now they can't hit either. Getting shut down by Abe Lincoln. Scherzer with one of his infamous "I'm cruising along and then all of a sudden I give up 3-5 runs in 10 minutes" performances. I'm at the end of my rope watching this team and trying to be a fan. f\*\*k you Leyland. f\*\*k you Dombrowski.

    And more importantly play in the weakest division at least at the top in all of baseball.

    Yeah this team has been a disappointment. What is with Fielder and Cabrera, they always show up short in the clutch so far, its pathetic - what are they being paid so much for?

    For as "good" as their offense is supposed to be, they have three MLB hitters. Cabrera, Fielder and Jackson. That's pretty much it. Guys like Santiago, Raburn, Worth, etc., etc., etc., etc., etc. are a joke. Lineup is full of holes. Delmon and Peralta have been below average. Boesch has a hole in his swing.

    Lincoln has given up 13 ER in his last 11.1 IP as a starter, yet the Tigers are making him look like fvcking Cy Young.

    Pirates have heart. Tigers don't. I'd trade pretty much the entire Detroit team for McCutchen and their bullpen.

    tigers are no fun for gamblers, hard to predict team.

    wild cards:
    "papa grande"
    crappy middle relievers
    slowness/incompetence/bad base running/errors

    When Fielder hit that double in the 7th. I've never seen so many parts of the body shake in the way they did.

    i think Yadi summed the tigers up best when asked about westbrook's complete gm performance, "they were swinging at everything, high pitches, low pitches, insides pitches, outside pitches"..lol, i was like damn i knew it wasnt westy being that good!

    fkin bums...the whole AL Central is a steaming pile of rhino sh*t, I'm fkin 0-4 on the day, just wonderful...betting baseball consistently is like getting a never ending handjob with no finish, fun at first but eventually wears on a guy

    Wow, you've held on a lot longer than I have.

    6 of the 9 batters are just embarrassing. I mean, I never expected Peralta or even Avila to do what they did last year, but they aren't doing anything at all...and the rest of the guys are backups on other teams. Delmon Young is just cringe worthy...swinging at 90% of the first pitches and never makes contact.

    Yea, the Prince signing made everybody way over hype this team after they over achieved last season. If they can get the role players to step up the bats they'll be alright but this late in the season...they are just lucky they're in the worst division in baseball.

    Prince hasn't done much either. He's on pace to drive in like 80.

    3.5 games out because it's the worst division baseball has seen in a long time.

    They aren't winning the pennant LB. Trust me.
