Tigers tied with Houston for best record in AL over last 70 games (basically last 50% of season played to date). Also tied for best AL record since July 1. Also from August 1. They have done this with one of the youngest teams in MLB. To think that it’s premature to invest heavily in the team starting next year is, frankly, malpractice. The opportunity is there. I hope Illitch/Harris seize it.

Yep. Trump could call Harris the N-word and the headlines will read: "Harris unable to clarify her ethnicity."

if Minnesota goes 9-9, the Tigers need to go 13-5. Gotta pick those games up somewheres. Hosting Colorado and their dismal 22-53 road record is an opportunity to do that.

While I do agree KC is the most important series, I would love to see him face Baltimore twice so they can see what potentially could have been if they were really willing to go for a title.

I don't know, to be honest.... it strikes me as very "online"

Let me get this straight, Trumpers are afraid of fictitious cat eating Haitians, but they think Hannibal Lecter is a great man. According to that logic they must think that babies taste like veal

would that that ever still happens. It's probably one of those things that can't be generalized. If you have a highly militarized outlook PD and you put a hard ass member in a school who never interacts in any other manner that's not a recipe for police-community relations success. The issue of the militarization of policing is bigger and broader than SROs. It's in large part a direct and I believe inevitable consequence of US gun culture.

I think they are just selling the current situation rather than saying "Well the guys we tried stink..." Always talk up your current group as if that's what you wanted. Until you move them. Be "happy" for who you have for the "ball club".

Jake Burger is another trade target for me, 28yr with big power from the right side that can handle 1st and 3rd. Also still has a couple years of control left.

well, time for a two-week update, I guess. and on Wednesday, she "gets" to go in for surgery—not a spay (well, probably not) but rather a hernia repair. some of her small intestine is on the wrong side of her abdominal wall.

A guy I know who runs a couple barbershop hates to be called “Chief”. I let all of his employees know this. They now use it all the time.

Typical MSM story-the reporter was instructed not to ask the Haitian dude for cat recipes!!! It’s all rigged!

These numbers are far too close. 46% of Americans are okay with him and that's not okay with me. ****ing lunatics.

Why is Sweeney a bench player after about 50 AB’s in MLB? I think he’s in the SS mix and a viable bridge to McGonigle and Rainer. Also, not convinced that Malloy doesn’t have a future role.

Nope. **** Trump. The Tigers are on. **** trump.

IDK, If I'm managing him I just keep him on his schedule - don't do anything that might cross him up physically or mentally.

We need to lock in, people! We still have meaningful games THIS year to worry about. The time for spitballing about next year is after this year is over, and it ain't! You same people are probably at WalMart buying Christmas decorations right now.

I hope the Lions play the Rams in Los Angeles next year so Lions fans can overtake the stadium and start a Jared Goff chant and boo the Stafford children.

so depressing GQP can collectively get together to share this racist fake story about immigrants, and it appears it will only help them. sigh.

I fully expect them to lose 2 of 3 to the Rockies and take 2 of 3 from the O's.

I just inserted a brain worm in a discussion with a dude at work. I told him: "you mark my words they will have mandatory firearms insurance in the next few years because there is no way the insurance industry doesn't want a chunk of that cash and will lobby successfully for it" Its probably not true but feels like it could be true.

I just want him to be good this week... then he can suck after that.

That escalated quickly!

@ game 145 1962 Mets 35-110 (they actually had a tie that season) 2003 Tigers 37-108 2024 White Sux 33-112 In order to avoid breaking the Mets 40-120-1 record, The White Sux have go go 7-10 the rest of the way. (technically they would break the Mets record even if they get to 40 wins because they'd go 40-122), but I don't want them reaching 40 wins............I hate White Sox fans. Yeah, yeah, yeah........"DE-TROIT SUCKS!" Doesn't have quite the impact when there's 250 people at a game chanting it. Last 17, I think they'll go 4-13. I think they finish at 37-125. Nashville doesn't even want ya.

Harris has added 2 SPs each winter, so IMO he does so again; 1 established guy, 1 fixer-upper. But, he must get a power reliever (or 2). Top 13 batters w/no changes: Rogers/Dingler, Tork, Keith, Sweeney/Baez, Jung/Ibanez, Greene/Meadows/Carpenter, Vierling, Malloy. Shopping list/areas to improve 1B - replace Tork, or have someone who can slide to 1B if he flops again SS - need to find someone better than Kreidler if you want to replace Baez 3B - Jung's approach is solid, but 0 HRs and iffy D so far DH - Malloy is crushing LHP but probably not enough to offset defensive limitations C Walker, W Adames, A Bregman, M Chapman, T O'Neill, A Santander are FAs who would provide real impact. Christian Encarnacion-Strand (1B/3B/DH) and Oswald Peraza (SS) are some trade targets IMO.

So here is one of the issues that the Tigers face. Tiebreakers. I think as part of the new playoffs with the 3rd wildcard, there are no regular season tiebreaker games. The Tigers have lost the season series to the Twins (6-7). The Tigers are currently trailing the Royals in that season series (3-7) with only 3 games to go. The Tigers have won season series over the Red Sox (4-2) and Mariners (5-1).

That would be a Dave Dombrowski move...two days after saying he is pleased with their team and doesn't anticipate any big moves.

If the Tigers do pursue an expensive free agent, I think it would be Bregman. He fills a need, is a Harris type of player and has a history with Hinch.

Don't forget about the back problems. Big red flag.

Let’s get that wall at the border with Haiti up ASAP!

It got much more quiet and much more friendly when he was put on my ignore list. Negativity is OK at times but constant belly aching is a headache.

Where is our border czar? Certainly not investigating missing cat reports, you'd hope.

I think you’re right on that, champ.

They didn't know if she'd survive 6 months after several cancer surgeries. 2 years later she's still here - still health - and terrified of thunder (which means I got not sleep Tues night). Sweetest dog ever - not a mean cell in her body. Lucy !

Orange kitty seems to like me quite a bit. Sigh

Liar.

I’m sharing this with y’all right now. I’m in Jeckyll island Georgia for a cousins trip. Recently one of my wife’s cousins was diagnosed with ALS. That prompted them all to plan a trip here for her. There’s 22 of us here. She’s progressed to the point where she’s wheelchair bound. Today we convinced her to let us get her into the pool at the resort. I was one that happened to be thwarted to hang on to her as she got in and to carry her around. She started giggling. I asked if she was ok and she said yes, she’s loving it. I will never ever forget that for the rest of my life and feel honored to be fortunate enough to have been able to give her that joy. Live your live and cherish it every moment.
