Coach Trev

We were out in the loo in Chicago and we were able to distract him a little bit from his Tigers.

But yeah, I mean, on this play specifically, I'm of two minds because on one hand, if you're the away team in this scenario, that being the Cleveland Guardians, like it's on you to try and

tackle on a bunch of runs here like that's kind of always been the extra inning adage of like if you're the road team you want to maximize this extra inning so I understand Hinch's vantage point of like okay if if we get an out here and you know they get the one run okay fine whatever the other side of it is if you're the Tigers lineup right now if Torgelson and Riley Green aren't the ones at bat getting hits it sort of feels like offense is just impossible for this team right now and the

when they had, you know, all this pitching going and stuff like that, I think they were able to offset it a little bit.

They were sort of in like a Red Sox boat in my mind, but now they're not even really getting good pitching performances either.

So just on all sides of the ball, plus like that's not even factoring their defense.

They rank towards the bottom of the league there.

They're just not really doing anything well, despite all the talent in this room.

And I think, uh,

It's tough for them because the Guardians feel like a perfect foil to all their flaws.

They're such a good team at exploiting the weaknesses of Detroit's roster.

And these two teams play so much because they're in the same division.

And you really saw it on display during this series.

So a really tough one for the Tigers.

I don't know what their way out is.

They've been swept for the fifth time this year.

They're now in that uncomfortable stat that my Mets were in a lot over their last 81 games, the worst teams in baseball.

The Rockies, the Angels, and the Tigers.

I saw a lot of times it was Rockies, Angels, Mets for a while.

The Tigers are now in that boat, and it's not going to be easy to climb out of.
