Is now open for business.

:thumbup

 

 

His fastball is up to where it should be now. 95-96 mph. :thumbup

Nice save.... Its nice to see that our bullpen did the job :thumbup

Now the Tigers are the only team left in baseball not to have a save :thumbup .

He had the 1-2-3 inning. Though I heard it should have been a bit harder to see if Mota can handle it, Im glad it didnt go that way.

Great to see hopefully Mota's House of Pain will be serving it up all season.

Jump Around.

First victim baby!! :notworthy

Nice way to get his first save this year. He was spotting his fastball nicely and not relying too much on the change up. A very solid outing.

That's two.

 

Would have been a 1-2-3 inning if Adam Dunn wasn't so damn strong he turned a pitch that he got fooled on and should have popped out into a double. What a beast.

Nice Save Mota

 

 

Keep them coming

He was in a pressure spot, man on 2nd and 3rd with Ken Griffey up and he struck him out. Good stuff

the only reason he got in trouble in the first place is because he threw the damn curveball to try and get both dunn and freel out..was it freel? iunno but his out pitch is a freaking fastball, he struck griffey out on a fastball, not a curveball :banghead . he got lucky.

The House of Pain in effect y'all

I say the House of Pain is in effect

You know the House of Pain is in effect y'all

And anyone that steps up is gettin wrecked

I loved the pose Mota struck after getting Griffey down on strikes. That was awesome.

Yea, That was awesome :notworthy

2 of 2 opportunities. He kept battling out there until he struck out Griffey. Great ending.

If Cabrera had any speed at all he would have run down that high fly ball from Dunn, and wouldn't have been in that situation in the first place.

NIce Save?

Guillermo Mota doesn't throw a curveball, and his out pitch is his change.

Honestly, if anyone but Adam Dunn hits that change other way like that, Pierre tracks it down because it is alot more shallow. But Dunn is so strong he sent it to the gap. No damage, no problem.

What do you think of that video they play when Mota comes in? Methinks its lame.

Haven't gotten to see it yet

May not look pretty, but a save is a save. :thumbup
