9/21 Povich vs Olson

[LookitsPuck]

This is the thing. Olson is recently fresh off an injury. He’s on a pitch count. His control is not good. You should not be swinging on the first pitch.

The Tigers aren't fooled by Povich's pitches...they are hitting the ball deep....and now another walk..

I wonder how often it’s happened that a team has acquired a guy off waivers and used him to plug a desperately gaping hole in their lineup with a 127 OPS+ and reasonably competent defense — and their fans have just relentlessly bagged on the guy for how bad he sucks.

Nice shut down inning from Povich.

Looks like Huerto coming in.. Will they get a hit off him this time with this lefty heavy lineup??

Did KB just say Adley got an MVO vote?  How is that possible. 

[Fiver6565]

These clowns are just up there hacking. Terrible approach to these ABs

[LookitsPuck]

Not sure bunting against a guy where everything is low and without command is a wise decision. 

Don’t give them free strikes. Olson isn’t throwing them. And Mullins looked like a chump striking out. Stop being aggressive! 

[Roy Firestone]

Boy, what a terrible inning offensively for us...

[Fiver6565]

Olson might as well just keep bouncing it up there. They will swing at 3 before they take 4. 

[LookitsPuck]

Really should be 2 runners on. Santander hasn’t got a single strike and he’s at 2-2.

[dtk9119]

What a pathetic inning that was. Hacking away at everything 

[Fiver6565]

Just a terrible inning for the top of the order.

Yup.

Santander and Mullins looked absolutely ridiculous up there. 

[Fiver6565]

Innings like that are why I’m still very concerned about the offense. The approach is just awful more often than not.
