Not living in the moment at all. Look at his numbers. Bad month, great month, bad month, great month. Guy gets too in his head, especially when a runner gets on base.

And I get that, but everyone is due a bad day. He's been pretty damn good since his slump at the start.

Lighten up, boys. Everyone knew they weren't gonna keep on winning at a .900 clip. It's MLB, some teams beat up on other teams sometimes. No rhyme or reason to it....it's just baseball. They'll be back...

Um, that's what makes it much more noticeable. Whether you like it or not, he has 6 losses. Those tend to stick out for a relief pitcher, and I'm fairly certain that not many other relievers have that many.
There actually 3 other relievers with 6 or more losses and 10 with 5 losses..

He has 6 losses and only 3 since May, the guy been nearly lights out since June 1st. .

April : 11 Games. 0 Runs. 2 Holds
May : 15 Games. 10 ERuns. 1 W 3 L. 4 Holds 1 Save
June: 12 Games. 1 ER. 4 Holds. 1 Save. 1 Blown Save
July : 12 Games. 4 ER. 6 Holds. 2 Lost.
Aug : 8 Games. 3ER. 6 Holds. 1 Lost


Guy had a bad month of May , take away those 15 games
He responsible for losing 4 games out of 43 he entered..

You can go ahead and piss in his cereal for his 7 bad games out of 58 he been in...
Ill appreciate the 51 he shut the door and gave his team a chance to win..

What makes this outing by Lester even worse, now the lineup is stuck with Ross and his 0fer...

Yeah, like I said, not many relievers have as many losses. Thanks for telling me what I already knew.

and 10 with 5 losses..

Completely irrelevant. Still less than Strop.

Too bad it doesn't work like that

Go right ahead. I don't really care, you're the one getting pretty defensive over why a guy catches flak. I simply pointed out why he does.

You clearly don't get that he's been pretty damn good on the season. People like you make baseball forums difficult to read.

Your giving the guy Flak for 1 bad outing in his last 15 appearances and only given up runs for third time in last 23 appearances and acting like he does that every other game.

so your pointing out nothing but your lack of knowledge to what Strop has done for this team to be where their at now, cause he been a big part of helping them win the last 2 months..

Holy fucking shit. I don't have a problem with Strop. I was pointing out why people do. Not that hard to understand guys.

Guessing swing. Soler was looking for a low ball and he hung a breaker and he popped it up. Tigers bullpen is not good. Need to keep pressing.
