Fun fact: Tigers are a top ten offense in terms of wRC+ and wOBA, and top half in runs scored, right about where they were last year. Their pitching, however, is 22nd in strikeouts, 23rd in walks yielded, 18th in FIP, 22nd in ERA.

Oh my god, they scored a run in the blue jerseys.

It was always possible that running most of the same offense back might not lead to improvement.

aRtiC SqUiRrEL!

Come on Colt, make Jake run.

No. The Clark we saw needs a season of...seasoning.

Everytime he gives up baserunners, I wonder if this is the inning he implodes. Hinch did a good job pulling him today.

What if they call up Max Clark, not to replace Parker Meadows, but Riley Greene?

Tigers get good pitching? Yeah, sorry, no offense. Baserunners but 0 runs.

this is too true, but I don't know that the decision on how much time is spent away from the PBP is Benetti's call,

He must have seen The Money Pit....

Look Greenland!

When you start a war to distract from the Epstein files, but the war is such a disaster that you pivot back to the Epstein files to distract from the war.

The wheels on the bus may be coming off of Flaherty start today after allowing two hits in a row.

An example, maybe you've seen? A meme going around, for years, still gets tweeted and retweeted by hundreds of people every time it's tweeted. The meme that claims Trump says if he ever were to run for president, he would run as a republican because they're stupid and easy to fool. Or some such nonsense. But it's totally fake. And I'm sure you've seen that one.

The biggest disinformation influencers on the left target their disinformation at normie Dems instead of Republicans. Rat****ing is more lucrative than attacking Republicans.

Another 100 pitch plus starter from the twins. Do they know something the rest of us don’t or are they just flying by the seat of their pants?

Say whatever you want when comparing Jason and whoever compared to Rod and Mario but it's a fact that when Rod and Mario were doing the games, you didn't have to watch to know what was going on. Many times, I'm doing something around the house and I have no idea what's happening without stopping and looking at the screen. With these guys in the booth now, the game comes second to whatever nonsense they're babbling about. A pitcher is pitching the ball and the announcers are busy talking to Danilla about some greasy hamburger she's stuff her face with. Who cares?? Fans are not watching the game to giggle like a 3 year old, it's serious business with a game going on. Go national, Jason. Bring DD into the TV booth and actually talk about the game that's going on. <rant over>

I didn’t say I agreed or disagreed but that Trump picked up that talking point from Sanders. The more egregious think is Sanders is still dabbling in election denialism.

That's fair, and I look forward to seeing it. Remember, though, none of it means anything without influence. What's make the right-wing social blowtorches so much worse is not the mere brazenness of the lies, but the influence they have at the very top of that Party. Many tweets coming from accounts managed by nobodies is not going to have anywhere near the same effect as just a few tweets managed by internet personalities who have been elevated by TPTB to somebodies.

They are talking about forks so yeah it's looking bleak.

Jack threw a clean inning in the fifth… “just when I think I’m out, they pull me back in…”

Occupy Democrats is as close as we can probably come to finding any leftist social media organization with the kind of scale that even comes close to match any number of right wing social media bomb-throwers, but despite the presence of "Democrats" in the title, they have exactly zero influence on the Democratic Party platform. Any agreement between Occupy Democrats and the Democratic Party is incidental, not direct. As far as I can tell, they don't talk.

Too many 100mph EV outs in this series.

I have provided an example.
