This is really really delightful, especially given the not very good day. I’ve been having.

I really want the Tigers to win this more than most regular season games, because it seems like every kid there is pulling for the Yankees. I want those kids to go home disappointed.

I'm sorry, I fell out of my chair when I read "Christian Faith" and couldn't finish the rest of it.

I'll be on the north side Tuesday and Thursday and on the south side Saturday! Then I'm coming into town for Red Sox-Tigers the following Friday. They're playing good, exciting ball with a good chunk of the future on the roster now, so, should be a good time to see them play!

No because the goal of the protestors is to ensure Trump wins. The goalposts will change. They’re already talking arms embargo instead of ceasefire. They don’t want Israel to exist.

Another conservative defection from the Orange One

I think I'm cool if he plateaus there.

In 15 games back from AAA and his break on the IL; Meadows is hitting .351/.373/.596 with 6SB while playing elite CF defense. He has a .409 BABIP so not sustainable but easy to dream on.

A perverse pleasure disappointing thousands of people in attendance and millions watching the biased ESPN broadcast. Suck it, New York! Kids beat the mighty Yankees 2 outta 3.

WIN And now time for the after the game handshake.

McKinstry getting released tomorrow will actually be sad now

Lol. Causing pain to the yankees and all their little league sychophants in the stands give me slight pleasure

SUCK IT YANKEES!!!!

Good game considering it's established major leaguers against minor leagues trying to learn a new league.

Yeah I know but I am glad he was able to make it to this game. My kids HS coach is Zach’s Dad. Glad he was able to share this day with him.

Like how they did with Marc Staal? Or getting reclamation projects like Fabbri, Walman, Bowey or Perlini?

So the Tigers are going to spend eight days and seven nights in Chicago, first playing the Cubs and then the Sox. This will be almost like a home stand only on the road. Hoping they settle in on this off day, get dialed in, and play some memorable baseball in the city of broad shoulders.

That should make for short rallies. His supporters should be out in time for the early bird special at Golden Corral

He’s not staying in Comstock Park for much longer.

Well, me for one. Honestly I'm not sure why you assume that most people have done this? It's frankly disturbing that you'd assume this. I'm a bit put out that you'd state something like this because when I did it, it was a domestic flight and therefore totally different.

First you hit this little icon, then just hit copy. And then paste it here.

Sure, but what in either of their histories suggest they would do that? Especially Max. I think we are highly overrating how important coming back to Detroit would be for JV. He’s got World Series trophies and Kate Upton…..signing a cheap prove-it deal to make Tiger fans have warm fuzzy feelings inside probably isn’t high on this guys list anymore.

If i were a person who made ridiculous analytic leaps, I would say Liz was in London to talk to Taylor about joining the campaign.

Honey I have to go to the store and get 100 dollars worth of cereal.

If Tork is productive through the end of the season, they will be loath to give up their best RH bat. If he isn't, he won't net much on the market so if he is moved it would be as a throw in, he won't bring back enough to matter. If he is sort of so-so - 90-100 OPS+ then I think you have the highest prob they shop him.

Wasn't there a year when the Tigers were awful that they went to NYC and swept the Yankees, like 1998 or something? EDIT: May 12-14, 2000

I am interested in the home plate umpire's report card.

Yeah that's what we do here, who the f does he think he is?

click the 3 dots on the tweet and choose 'embed post'. You will get dialog window with a URL in a box at the top that says "What would you like to embed?" then some choices lower on the page. I think the easiest thing is to ignore the stuff at the bottom, just copy the URL in the box under the question in the upper part of the dialog and paste it into your post. Do not choose "paste as plain text"

they won 78 last season, they need to get to >90 to be competing for the playoffs. So call it 92 wins and a 14 game improvement. To accomplish half of that this season would require them to get to 85wins - which is conceivable, but not all that likely - they would have to play 600 the rest of the way. OTOH, if they were on track for the playoffs, Flaherty would still be here, so that would add 2-5 wins. The the other view would be that if they do at least win any number greater than last year after losing Olsen, Mize, trading Flaherty and having Lange turn into a pumpkin, then the line-up has gotten stronger and they could be poised to make up a lot of ground in 25. The irony is that while you can point to all the unexpected pitching loses, it's still runs scored where they are lagging by 50+ runs of being in the same class as the playoff teams, while despite the pitching losses, their runs allowed would be competitive in most divisions.

He couldn't believe Cora would send him with no outs. Most coaches wouldn't have.

Winner take that umps

Sweeney’s was a minor leaguer’s at bat. I can’t blame the kid. But going the other way twice plates a run and now for some free baseball!

Sweeney looks overmatched tonight.

Two DH’s collaborating on a screw up.

Bert's sick. He needs six runs!

I was just telling someone, I would not be surprised to learn that not a single Little League player is rooting for the Tigers over the Yankees. Front-running little bastards. 😁

Nice effort by Jung. So far no sign of struggles on defense.

The cutoff man had the ball before Jayce even hit 3rd base...that wasnt a good send at all, and it's not like it was a bang bang close play with Jayce half way to homeplate when the cutoff guy got the ball, he was dead to rights 30 feet in front of home plate...just admit it was a bad send by Cora, come on man

I strongly disagree with automatic send on two outs.

Time to score runs.

We all knew this espn broadcast was gonna gargle the yankees sack tonite, but it's still no less irritating.

Joey Cora is like a -5 WAR third base coach

I’m sure Seattle fans saw 6 games with the Tigers as the way back to first.
