Another game, another feeble performance from the Detroit Tigers. Joey Wentz melted down as soon as he got in trouble, and the offense was completely outclassed as usual. This was a particularly ugly one, but par for the course for an offense nearly seven months into a historically bad run.
Before the game even started, there was a bit of last minute news as right-hander Trey Wingenter hit the 15-day IL, backdated to April 19 with shoulder tendinitis. Right-handed reliever Will Vest was recalled from Triple-A Toledo to take his place.
Right from the jump, the Tigers had a chance for a big inning against right-hander Kyle Gibson, but they blew it.
