So, let me see if I get this straight. The Tigers can actually win a game in which Rogers hits a HR. But two pitchers need to be sacrificed in the process? I don't know if that's a worthwhile long term strategy.

Ibanez HR ricocheted off the wall and took out three guys in our bullpen.

Which is more awkward? Kyle Schwarber, Cure Insurance spokesman or Kyle Schwarber, left fielder?

I have the volume down. I can't take C-Mo. I just can't stand him.

“Our data suggests”. Science is not a static thing. I seriously think that there was no intent to mis-characterize what was happening with the virus. What would be the purpose of that???? The data AT THAT TIME … suggested…that vaccinated people didn’t carry the virus. But the message always was that you had a much better chance at NOT ending up in a life-ending situation in a hospital intubated with diminished hope of ever leaving that room. I’m not understanding why we are looking to demonize and criminalize scientists. I honestly don’t understand this.

They only use a deadened ball when the Tigers are hitting. 😄

I am impatient I want scoring now!

Can Manning pitch in full catcher's gear? Need to protect these guys somehow.

Yet again it looks like they've unjustly excluded @buddha from entering into the competition. Surprised the footage of security dragging him out didn't make the cut for this video. 😉

Mattison is interesting...

It is 3:28 PM. It's been, what, 19 whole hours without a Tigers pitcher getting injured. A new record?

Yes, in the first two weeks before his injury.

I'd be good with Berggren and 2nd round pick...I'd prefer to keep Mazur

It blows my mind how many fans are perfect OK giving Johnson $30M a year. If the cap does come in at $136M next year his max contract would be $34M per year. Cam Johnson should never, and I mean never, be approaching max contract territory. $18M is his ceiling IMO.

Saw something on Reddit yesterday. A guy had his identical twin brother listed in his phone as Spare Parts.

Either way, it's bad asset management. The RFA market is a losing game. You either pay way more than value so the other team won't match, or you still pay way more than value and ALSO give up trade assets. And we're talking about an injury prone role player here, not an All-Star or even a borderline All-Star. Go out and sign someone like Barnes to a reasonable contract instead with team option in the last year. He'll give you 90% of what Cam gives you for 60% of the cost, plus a vet presence, and a tradeable contract down the line while you develop the youth. You'll have enough cap for a second signing and you can still use your other assets in a trade to bring in a third player, a future pick, or both.

Tigers went 15 years between Gold Glove winners, Pettis in 1989 and Pudge in 2004. Tigers have only won one since 2009.... Ian Kinsler won in 2016.

Hilarious that you posted a version of the clip that includes the fact check that debunks it. That's not how you spread lies and conspiracies.

I have everyone in my phone with their full names, even my children. If I did nicknames, everyone would be Mr/Mrs Captain Dip****, which seems like it would be confusing.

LSU clubs UF to win it; seen some negative tweets about Crews' swing, and some about Langford's D, but what monster seasons from both in the best conference; threw in Teel

I'll gladly take something for Cisnero. Maybe the return is Olson. Maybe the return is Maton. If they don't trade Cisnero, the return is nothing, except maybe Cisnero next season.

You misspelled “Vest”.

All things considered that may be the most impressive win of season.

I've decided to allow Olson to stay, he's done some good things.

16 K's, 3 walks, and for a nice change it was the other team's hitters.

Hope Dan D's crystal ball is a good one with the way he keeps promoting Jace Jung to the majors....

Still have a hard time forgiving and forgetting the Tram situation.

Lol - Wind Pudge up and stand back, he'll talk your ear off. But it's all good - it was less air time for Shep and C-Mo.

Pitching staff so far has 1 walk and 11 strikeouts.

Detroit Lions bingo.

He's such a moron he doesn't even understand that DOD draws up and games out every kind of possible war scenario - it's their job to have thought out every scenario. He's looking at a contingency planning doc and comming to the conclusion that the DOD want's to start a war. How do people manage to miss the monumental stupidity of the man?

Englert facing his old squad, too, right?

After all that, 6 K in 2 innings!

I don't know. The whole whole self pity schtick doesn't play with me. I have heard it for too long with the Tigers. Staying healthy is skill. Boyd pitched a total of 150 innings the last three years. I don't blame the Tigers for signing him but I am not going to buy into a pity party they throw for themselves either (or that Monroe and Shep throw for them).

I was going to say the security guard in the bullpen just had his arm fall off. There's something in the sunflower seeds!

is it not night where you are?

Whenever we worry about needing spots in the lineup or the rotation, spots will open up due to performance and injury.

Whiplash from watching the homer.

Enough of Hinch with this Lefty/Righty bullspit. Give me someone that can create a spark PARKER MEADOWS HITS LEFTIES BETTER THAN HE HITS RIGHTIES AND HE'S AN OUTFIELDER WHICH IS SOMETHING YOU DON'T HAVE ENOUGH OF NOW !!!!!!!!!!! HE'S ALREADY ON THE 40 MAN AND HE'S BEEN HITTING IN JUNE. Schoop, Ibanez, McKinstry, Short and even Vierling can play 3B better than Maton did.

I can see it now. Five episodes of Aaron Rodgers doing things for attention and then immediately claiming he doesn't want the attention.

Sounds like Beilein will not be retained.

I think Malloy will be in the outfield most days. They need to have him learn a position before resorting to a DH role.
