Tough week to look at. Dropping one by 9 last night stings. On top of that, getting outscored by 7 in a week. That tanks the score.

Tigers News
After riding high on an impressive 8-6 victory over the Cubs, the Detroit Tigers fell flat with an 11-2 shellacking in the rematch, showcasing that their pitching woes are far from over. Framber Valdez, who started with a mediocre 4.10 ERA, couldn't contain the Cubs, and the fallout continued as the team placed Jack Flaherty on the 15-day injured list with flexor inflammation, further complicating the rotation. Ty Madden, recalled from Triple-A, now steps in to provide support, but the injury bug has dealt a harsh blow just when the Tigers seemed to have depth in their arms. Meanwhile, on a brighter note, Max Clark is heating up at Triple-A, showcasing the potential for some fresh talent, while the Tigers cling to a 47-53 record, desperately seeking consistency in a season that has been anything but predictable.
