    I understand that but other teams are able to score runs without a high home run total. Milwaukee, Tampa Bay and Miami have fewer homers than the Tigers, but they rank in the top half of MLB in runs scored. The difference is the get on base more often than the Tigers.

    So, the Tigers are going up against Parker Messick tonight, who is really good. So given the way baseball works the Tigers will probably win this game one way or another and then go on to lose 7 of their next 10 games. Don’t blame me. Don’t kill the messenger. This is the kind of weird ass stuff that happens.

    Detroit did more in the offseason than other AL Central teams. They can win the division. They won't give up until the last game is played. Things look bad right now but there are plenty of games left and Cleveland isn't some juggernaut boogeyman.

    Because a home run gives you instant scoring. You don't need to rely on stringing two or three hits together by punch and judy hitters.

    They can be “livid” all they want but will still behind the knee at whatever he wants. Hopefully they all fall off this sinking ship with him.

    I thought that was actually well-known about that organization. Maybe not as well-known as I thought it was.

    Makes sense, federal fraud is much more profitable.

    i understand your point. but "setting your boss straight" isnt always so easy. he can offer advice and gores may choose not to take it. langdon wont quit even if gores overrules him.

    Perhaps the 2024 rebound was because the pressure was off thinking the season was over thus allowing them to play free and once they got rolling their confidence grew ? Or I could be spewing nonsense.

    A baseball team is all about building player/talent capital. If you are starting from a point where you don't have a lot, the resources available in a single off-season to collect more may not be enough for all you need. Likewise, until you can build up enough talent capital that you have more than you can put on the field at one time, trading is pretty much a zero sum game because it's hard not to end up giving up something you still need to get something you want. It's a long process, like building up your bank account, and the worst thing you can do for the long term is make some kind of splashy trade that actually moves you backwards by making your team older and shallower.

    And right now they're 0 for 3 on those.

    I've got more faith in Keith than Tork......but it's close
  19. SoCalTiger
    Does anyone here think that if Tork and Keith were playing for the Guardians or Brewers or Rays that they would be performing better ? Am I wrong to feel that way ? And McStinky must be injured to the point he can not play shortstop. No other reason Zack is here without his attack.

    I haven't yet listened to the Pride of Detroit podcasters break this down yet and how this all played out. It does seem a little far-fetched that a businessman like Rod Wood would be solely making a football decision like this. If the original tweet was wrong or misrepresented the situation, then it was.
  21. NorthWoods
    lol kidding. After Riley that lineup is where rallies go to die.

    I’d love to see an “umm off” between Brad Holmes and Trajan. Over/Under of 200 umms at least.

    So, they just should have assumed that there would be no pitching injuries? Olson was not healthy at any point in the off-season and Melton was somewhat of an unknown. You need at least 7 starters on your roster going into the season.

    Teams employing reporters is still weird to me. It was around 70 people. This new owner is supposedly trying to hire a coach for $1 million a year.

    I don't understand the obsession with home runs. I think he is a game changer...but he can't do it by himself. Trout never could either and he hits plenty of home runs.

    Comparing Langdon to Weaver strengthens my claim about incompetence. I'm not saying Gores doesn't intervene. I'm saying it's on Langdon to set him straight when he does. The guy that has been around basketball his entire life. The guy who has been in a front office role for over a decade. Like he did when he convinced Gores to fire Monte.
