I’ve looked into the abyss and seen some baseball that I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy.
For people who have yet to pay attention (and why would you?
Despite what the most optimistic fans have tried to preach, this fugazi pennant chase will never last.
Detroit has once again fielded a terrible baseball team.
The Oakland A’s were coming to town.
What’s the worst that could happen?
Well, we’ve now seen the worst.
They’re bleeding like a stuffed pig until they inevitably move to Vegas.
No one told the Tigers that.
Based on what I’ve seen the last two days, the Tigers have been facing the 1989 Athletics.
The A’s awful offense recorded two hits in ten innings on the 4th of July.
They won the game 1-0.
Last night, what can I say?
An actual showing of shit would’ve been less of a shit show.
The Tigers' best hitter (Kerry Carpenter) has had one at-bat in two games.
The offense is yet to score a meaningful run in two games against a historically godawful pitching staff.
Eduardo Rodriguez returned from the I.L.
for Detroit yesterday and got rocked.
It was a disastrous showing for a team that received some well-deserved boos at the end of the night.
Remember, Detroit almost NEVER boos their players, but they deserved it in this case.
This is so fucking tiring, man.
How long is this agony going to continue?
Look, long term, I still believe in new team President Scott Harris.
This ship will get righted at some point, but when?
Why does Detroit, as a fanbase, always have to be the ones who wait the longest?
The Lions haven’t won a playoff game in my lifetime.
TheWashington GeneralsDetroit Pistons haven’t won a playoff game in 16 years.
WHEN THE FUCK IS IT GONNA BE OUR TURN?!
Reds fans didn’t have to be patient with Elly De La Cruz.
Orioles fans didn’t have to be patient with Adley Rutschman.
Diamondbacks fans didn’t have to be patient with Corbin Carolll.
Why is it always Detroit?
Keep in mind; I’m not asking for first-ballot Hall Of Famers.
I want good hitters.
It’s not so much a matter of performance.
But offensively, EVERY SINGLE YEAR, this team is at the bottom of every important offensive statistic.
Can’t you crack the top 15 one time?
There’s no thesis here.
This is just venting.
Watching this team isn’t some hobby anymore.
This is my job.
I will be handing out cigarettes again soon because you couldn’t get your shit together.
Having watched this team for the last seven years, I now completely understand why teams decided to cheat.
One day good fortune has to come our way.
On a long enough timeline, good things happen to all teams at some point, right?
I used to think that way.
Now, not so much.
like get right, for the love of god.
