That Detroit Tigers bullpen. It never escapes being a talking point.
After the team pulled even with the Twins atop the American League Central division this afternoon with a 2-1 win at Comerica Park, it once again was a topic of conversation inside manager Brad Ausmus’ office after the game.
It likely will be for some time, until the bullpen can keep a lead intact.
“The guys are doing their job,” Ausmus said. “Sometimes, they’re going to be successful. Sometimes, they’re not. It’s not always going to go smooth.”
Ausmus then turned his trademark sarcasm up a couple notches.
