Another day, another feeble performance from the Tigers offense. The only question this season has been whether the starting pitcher would keep them in the game or not. On Sunday, Jose Ureña handled a terrifying Yankees lineup with little trouble, but this lineup full of windmills generated no power and went down in a 2-0 defeat anyway.
Ureña continues to be a bit of a revelation. We knew the stuff was good and that he would induce tons of ground balls, but his command of all of his pitches and ability to avoid mistakes that has really impressed.
