I know I am not the first to say it, but this year of Tigers Baseball is over. While they tried hard to overcome a worse-than-bad start, the pitching could just never rise to the occasion consistently enough for this team to make a dent in the hole they’d dug in April and May. Even if they win tomorrow’s game against the White Sox, having won 2 games out of six against the leading team in the division does not make for a serious pennant run.
The Tigers are now 8.5 games out of first. I just don’t see any way they can dog out of this hole. At least, not with a pitching staff that’s being held up by Galarraga and no one else.
