Detroit Tigers: Time for Drastic Lineup Change
It is unfair to blame a manager entirely for a stagnant offense as he is not the one who has stopped hitting, but a manager also cannot just sit back and hope his team starts batting again.
The Detroit Tigers shouldn’t be fooled by their five runs in Thursday’s, 7-5, loss to the Athletics. Detroit has averaged 2.5 runs over the last 10 games, losing eight of those 10 games. That seems impossible with the names in the Tigers lineup, but after taking a look at their recent totals, it’s easy to see why the team is struggling and why it is time for drastic lineup change.
