Mary C Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 POTENTIAL STARTING LINEUPS: LOS ANGELES DODGERS: C | Will Smith FB | Freddie Freeman SB | Gavin Lux S | Trea Turner TB | Justin Turner LF | Chris Taylor CF | Cody Bellinger RF | Mookie Betts DH | Max Muncy DETROIT TIGERS: C | Tucker Barnhart FB | Spencer Torkelson SB | Jonathan Schoop S | Javier Baez TB | Jeimer Candelario LF | Austin Meadows CF | Akil Baddoo RF | Robbie Grossman DH | Miguel Cabrera As if the beating from the Twins weren’t enough, just today for their first game, the Tigers took a whooping from the Dodgers in a 5-1 game at the Dodger Stadium. Yikes. This upcoming May 2, 2022, will be their last game for this series, and it’s not looking good for Detroit. 4:10 AM (PST) this Monday, baseball fans are going to want to get up early for this one. Let’s face it. As we follow the game series against the Minnesota Twins, it looks like Los Angeles will be the next to sweep the Tigers in all three games. If the Tigers want to win at all, they need to put their focus on Javier Baez because he’s the only one with relatively any potential to go against the Dodgers. Decent hitter, an appreciable defender, and is able to run the bases well, we could even go as far as saying he’s an outstanding defensive player. It just so happens that he’s stuck with greedy and inefficient management along with underwhelming teammates. Arguably one of the best teams, if not the best, in baseball while they’re against Detroit, it’s looking like an easy game for Los Angeles. There’s no turning a blind eye to this mismatch as Los Angeles already proved themselves too hot for the Tigers to handle. With their overflowing offensive talent, they managed to get an early lead today, and Detroit didn’t stand a chance. Overall, we don’t see the tides changing anytime soon. Los Angeles will dominate Detroit unless by some miracle the Tigers suddenly get their heads in the game together. The Dodgers just happen to be good at what they do, work well, and trust each other enough for phenomenal gameplay. Until then, the Dodgers and most of the teams in the MLB will be able to outperform the Tigers. Sorry, Tigers, that win record won’t be getting any higher by the end of this series. 4:10 AM, Tuesday, May 2, 2022.
