Game Day Thread 05.05.21 - Tigers (Mize) @ Red Sox (Perez)

[TylerD]

Koji probably closed a game faster than any closer in history.

 

He was a beauty to watch!!

[Maxbialystock]

I do think Cora has been outmanaged tonight. He was late pulling Perez, and his former boss seems to be making all the right moves.

 

If Cora had an ounce of sense, he'd send Ottavino out to pitch the 8th and have him throw a lot of breaking stuff.

[Swiharts Ghost]

Lmao we just finished watch SOA.

 

Yup Saw gives me chills from that nutso show ...of course there are like 8 of them on Netflix love em all lol

He was fearless with the 85 mph fastball.

[moonslav59]

Yanks up 6-3.

 

[Swiharts Ghost]

Marwin just doesn’t do it for me

[Swiharts Ghost]

Yanks up 6-3.

Ya it was a good one. Some fantastic acting. We are watching Lost now on disney

 

UGH!!! Thought that ball was gone.

You're worse.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

JD's going to be expensive for some team next season.

[Maxbialystock]

If he just kept going with his two seam fast ball, he would have been much better. Tried too much fancy crap and it made him worse. Regardless. Not sure I would take him back over Richards or Pivetta anyway. I have been pretty happy with both.

 

I'll be honest and say I thought Porcello had a complete repertoire of pitches. The problem was that none of them was especially good, nor was his command. He never, ever mastered the art of pitching low in the zone.

[d-money]

Need this game. The team in the Bronx zoo is starting to piled up the wins.

[Swiharts Ghost]

Can you imagine how good Barnes would be if he mixed in Squats ?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Not saying the Tigers are bad, but Cordero. with his stats, might be batting 5th for them.

[Maxbialystock]

Did Plawecki really pinch hit for Arroyo? And is Vazquez at 2B?

[Swiharts Ghost]

Ohhhhh Barnseyyyyy

[Swiharts Ghost]

Lmao yup

[Swiharts Ghost]

Barns is sexy tonight

[iortiz]

Barnes is unhittable.

 

Let’s get the win.

[moonslav59]

Cordero & Perez for Boyd?

[Swiharts Ghost]

Let’s walk this one off

[d-money]

Time for the walkoff win!!!!!

[moonslav59]

Better win it, now.

 

This extra inning crap is a coin flip.

[Maxbialystock]

That knuckle curve is so lethal it's outlawed in 35 states.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Barnes is Noble.

[d-money]

Better win it, now.

This extra inning crap is a coin flip.

 

The most ridiculous thing ever.

[moonslav59]

Head scratcher.

 

Arroyo has career splits that are about the same vs LHPs and RHPs.

[moonslav59]

Time for a Dalbec dinger.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Cordero and Dalbec; the coal-dust twins.

[Maxbialystock]

Time for a Dalbec dinger.

 

Dalbec is an embarrassment. His forte is hitting lefties and he's struck out twice tonight against lefties. And he is tied for the MLB lead in errors by a firstbaseman.
