Fans wonder if the Tigers will have remembered to bring a bullpen when they meet the Marlins on Opening Day, April 5. It’s a scary thought that approached panic Sunday (Tigers Nation social media chatter) when things didn’t go well in an 8-3 loss to the Astros at Marchant Stadium.
Bruce Rondon had another bad day when a break from his exasperating ways would have benefited everyone. He got tattooed for four runs and a couple of homers in a sorrowful two-thirds of an inning that left him with an ERA of 9.00.
