Verlander was legit really good for the last couple months of last season. He’s simply at an age at which the cliff beckons, and hard.

I’d be surprised if it were one strike and you’re out for Drew Sommers. He’s sticking around for a bit still.

Ugh...more millions of $$ wasted? Its too bad no bats were available or wanted to play here. Whatever the case was.

To hell with nytimes but heres a gift link.

yeah, 2 more home runs.

Did JV implode after giving up the 2 home runs?

No. Funny. I talk to a buddy every night who, like me, started out as a mechanic back in the late 60s early 70s. We could fix our own cars. Not now, that ship sailed years ago. Special tools, fuel pumps inside gas tanks, starters under the intake manifold, batteries under the back seat, and every piece on the car that can be saved, cheapened, or made so it's easy going down the assembly line, they will do. You can't work on them and they don't want you to. I'll bet I could still get around in my 1979 souped up Chevy C10 pickup if I didn't break a telephone pole with it. Probably couldn't buy gas for it today.

More proof that Harris reads this forum.

Hope that you can still make it?

Honestly, I’m fine if Verlander never comes back. He’s low-key a sideshow at this point.

Maybe in batting practice.

I was lucky enough to meet a lot of Pistons players in the late 80s and early 90s. Hastings was my favorite. Hilarious and very engaging with the fans. Sucks to see him let go.

Perez for Short...lol. A hernia instead of a rupture.

That situation is on a train to awkwardville. Especially when you have a cranky ignorant fanbase that thinks he is 2011 Verlander.

That escalated quickly.

These AAA pitchers are so inconsistent. Disaster of an inning. I guess we kinda know who is going down to Toledo later in the week?

Sommers looked pretty good his last couple of outings. Not so much tonight.

if he would have hit that one in between guys instead of right at a guy, it might have been a triple. Even that exact hit ball had a .440 xBA. So that hit was simply unlucky, not a fail. There are bigger issues he needs to work onto change things up, it’s just that in the middle of a season, there’s no time, so in the meantime he has to try to keep his head clear and just do the things he’s worked on properly to get results.

I think I remember reading in the spring that Keith reworked his swing so he wouldn't get off to another slow start? Whatever he did, well, he started out good but not doing so well recently.

18436572 ...L-RR-L-R-LL-R... which translates to lub-dub-lub-dub-lub-dub.. from the dual exhaust. 😉 I have to say the Subaru boxer H-6 was the smoothest, low speed torguiest, easiest winding ICE I ever drove, but it sounded pretty boring by comparison.

Drew Sommers taking the mound.

Nah, you just need 5 guys that can score against Wemby. Like I said in the draft thread, you beat him with shooting.

I just realized this game was on Peacock

Got it, thanks.

102 EV on his last AB but no elevation.
