Sad to hear that Pat Caputo passed away. The S on his shirt stood for "straight down the middle". RIP. https://www.clickondetroit.com/news/local/2026/05/08/detroit-sports-radio-host-pat-caputo-dies-at-67-after-battle-with-pancreatic-cancer/

Every loss is always Hinch's fault.

Boras is using Heyman to downplay the degree..one small loose body...like Tenacious D is saying. Maybe not a big advantage but it's perception building. "no added sugar"..etc..Boras get's good press and Heyman gets scoops.

Why can't McKinstry play shortstop ? Do we NEED Short ? I say it's time to make some position decisions and let them play. Tork-Lee-McStinky- McGonigle -Dingler -IF , Greene-Verling-Carpenter(gulp) OF and Keith DH. Play them everyday until injured players return. There isn't any now or future with Perez - Jones or Short. We really miss Meadows and Baez for defense. Until then just put the best defenders in the field and let Carpenter-Keith and Lee play everyday . But only Carpenter in RF and Keith only DH.

We're pretty much at the point of anything left of fascism is acceptable for now.

We may be able to hold out until we get mize, melton, and skubal back but what's going to help this BP? Hard not to suspect Vest is on his way to TJ. Melton maybe - but I have been assuming they are going to need Melton in the rotation - at least until Skubal gets back. So best case, Flaherty straightens out (he wasn't horrible last time out), the rotation settles at Mize, Flaherty, Valdez, Montero, Mleton, then eventually Skubal and Melton can go to the BP, but I'd really like to see another BP arm from somewhere. Now all we need is for Mize and Melton to actually get back and the rest to happen before they end up too far back to catch up.

So true

Voters choosing candidates is so, so 20th century. Today candidates choose their voters don'cha know?

Nothin but a bunch of stable geniuses here

Only a loser would choose who they want to vote for

Damn, I don’t want to hate this team. But right now I think I’d rather watch two winos fighting over a bottle of that blueMD 20/20 in an alley.

The answer for the Dems isn't that hard - you run AOCs where progressives can win and you run Fettermans where they can't win and when you get in power you pass the parts of your agenda you agree on and try to build consensus if you can for the stuff you like that doesn't have broader appeal. That's what representative democracy is supposed to be about. But both sides of the party want to be in control, neither side willing enough to go with the fact that some of the answers can be different in different places

I would question our stability. 😀

I like my Gen Z students. They are smarter and more respectful than our generation was at their age. Yes, I have a biased sample.

You need to fall in line and vote for who the Democrat leaders tell you to vote for. You have no choice.

And somehow we’re still in contention.

On top of bullpen woes, this is a terrible clutch hitting team.

You're the one saying you know the outcome to something that didn't happen and you're calling someone else a moron. Bold move, Cotton.

Didn't he say that in 1987 when they got off to a slow start? I am not sure, but they were were 19-21 after 40 games that year. However, they had begun to heat up by game 40 whereas this team appears to be going nowhere until they do a whole lot of healling.

that contract is looking a little less favorable for the Tigers this season.Definitely counter expectation that a player that should be developing more power at this point in his career has seen his ISO go basically to zero. Superficially, one would argue that much like Riley's shift last season to the super uppercut, Colt's shift this season to the super short approach has been an over compensation. Last season Riley did hit more HR's but became a worse hitter and is having to fight back from that now. Colt has gotten his AVG and OBP up but so far at too high a cost in ISO. Hopefully Keith can make an in season adjustment to get to a better compromise instead of this being his MO for the whole season.

As always, you're right. Once again. Amazing. BTW, Tigers lost. Our SP was pulled after 71 pitches of 1 run ball. Genius move...Hinch looks like a moron.

Listening to that audiobook from Thomas Ricks about Churchill and Orwell. Orwell was downright despondent for having been an ardent socialist, gone off to Spain to fight to see that Stalin's totalitarian secret police had taken over all the goodwill of the "Revolution" and hunted him and his fellows in the Left harder than the fought the Franco regime. He then returns to Britain and endures the idiocy of appeasement and folly of the Colonel Blimpish failures of the first 2 years of the war. He knew that Stalin was not to be trusted at all...he came to appreciate Churchill for being willing to throw away the British class system in favor of national survival. Now I bring that up because Orwell was cursed with knowledge and among those whose curse was ignorance.

Maybe if he’d play instead of pinch hitting all the time

I'd say having an alleged rapist and man who groped woman in the White House is worse, but ok. You do you. I think Slick Willie was far worse. That doesn't even get into the dozens and dozens of bad policies that Bubba supported that ravaged middle and lower income persons and families.

Game 40 tomorrow. I don't think Sparky would be impressed.
