I told some people a few days ago that I was rooting for the Leafs in game 6 just because it would be way more hilarious to see them lose another game 7, especially at home. 🤣

This was always my favorite "Norm opening" and he doesn't even say a word.

Dingler has become a much better everyday option at catcher than Rogers.

They need Rogers back. The Tiger players have a lot of focus and determination, but they have the personality of an upper middle class suburban travel team.

4 pitches...lmao

Alexa Datt>Todd Jones

He has a point. And there was still room on the wall to have added No Cups.

The Tigers have only scored eight runs in the last three games and the four runs last night were almost gimme’s. They need to start swinging the lumber with authority again. If they don’t, I’ll probably just watch the last episode of Apple TVs The Studio during the game tonight. i’m tired of weak grounders and being BABIP’d to death.

Plot twist: they’re all cafeteria Christians.

Catchers have gone the way of running backs. Teams have 1 and 1A. Also. If you are counting on Nido to fill the gap, we don't know if he clears waivers this week.

This would be terrible. Briceno? Maybe. Not Dingler, a guy with five more years of control and a 2-3 win guy right now.

The Force Healer really put her hooks in me. That was as good a vignette about Faith as you will see.

TBD...he has a 1.5% walk rate and a .382 BABIP. I need to see if the hitting is sustainable when he makes less contact. And he will be much better sharing time with Jake Rogers...plus we underestimate Jake's leadership and experience with the pitching staff.

Oh Marco...what could have been

be nice if people had warning about those storms.

In a new hope Vader declares "There will be no one to stop us this time...." That's a reference to Cassian Andor now.

I wonder about the legal implications of the FDA stating this. Does this mean insurance companies won't pay for boosters or can't? Covid is now essentially the flu. I really don't have a problem taking the booster at this point or not, but the option should be there. Honestly is it still a booster at this point? If i'm not mistaken, isn't the formula being updated regularly based on current Covid virus patterns? It's basically equivalent to a flu shot now, right?

I hope we can score some runs again. This last 4 days has been trying on my psyche.

I actually have a different view - I think the conventional liberal idea of 'making the corporations pay their fair share' is just virtue signalling rhetoric. I'd would just as soon see corporate income taxes stay low for the sake of US competitiveness, and because the corporate income tax is fundamentally regressive - lower income consumers spend more of their income on corporate products. But the balance is I want to see dividends taxable as ordinary income on the graduated scale. The historical precedent for low capital gains taxes was that it was a double tax because the corporation was already taxed - low corp income taxes kill that argument. Then the adjunct to that is that the 100% reset on capital gains on inheritance has to be modified. Too much capital gain escapes taxation completely under those rules. Those are my perfect world tax system dreams....😉

The 2025 Tigers would wear their sweaters around their hips and emerge from their German sports sedans with their tennis racquets with their bored, but stunning nordic blond girlfriends. When she locked eyes on Jake Rogers and that very defiant mustache she would know he was the One she should marry if only she could free herself of [insert name of player] and his family's money.

Hinch on mlb radio(not confirmed) -Rogers is returning and will start vs the Cardinals tonight. -Parker Meadows starts his long rehab assignment in Toledo tonight.

OK MAGAs Defend This It's only the foundation on which our country was founded on, as well as all civil democracies This is exactly why MAGAs want to destroy public education, it has nothing to do with DEI or LGBT or any of their crazy ideas

I picked a good night to go hang out with a buddy. By the way... if you are like me, 51 years old, you probably have old friends that you are starting to only see at events like funerals. That's how it was with the guy who I've known since I was 10 years old, he was the best man at my wedding. Both still live locally and would see each other once every few years and give it the old "Yeah, let's hang out sometime...." In October of 2023 he reached out and we met up on a Monday night. Since then we've done that once a month. Before we leave for the night we pick our next date and put it on our calendars. We mark it down for Monday and Tuesday in case the Monday doesn't work. You just have to make the effort. Nothing crazy. We both get up early. Have a drink or two and a sandwich in a sports bar and relive the "good old days".

I love the story, which I think is fake, that it was Ilitch who suggested they get Cabrera. Like the whole crew is just sitting around and in comes Mike "Hey, I was reading that Florida wants to trade Miguel Cabrera... we should get him." Mike Ilitch probably didn't know who Cabrera was.

you can't outrun a bad diet

People pick the things in the bible that confirm the beliefs they already have.

I suppose this will rub those of you the wrong way that look like this, but nobody in a Gary Larson comic from 40 years ago is particularly attractive. I was on a Far Side Facebook page a few years back and ended up leaving because half the comments were from people who didn’t get the humor, demanded explanations, and were outraged and offended.

Oh my God Nido is pitching

I’m sure it will be better than Boaty McBoatface

I guess it's time to binge some more Bosch.

Javy Baez, pinch hit home run with 5 men on base

Agree that the Tigers seemed a step behind, or off to start. But that last inning by Montero is encouraging. Now score some runs, dummies.

I am really sick of umpires that are easily fooled.

Oh come on! 🤕 To be fair, I don't see how any pitcher survives a season without injury considering the mechanics involved with gripping and throwing a baseball like they do.

This could be a big deal.

It is nothing but a brazen exercise to cash in at the veteran’s expense. Capitalize on their sacrifices-the American way. Two years ago the Durham Bulls, like every other opportunistic entity, were sending me emails (ticket holders) about their Armed Forces Hat grift offer. They were pushing these hats front and center on their website. I emailed the team’s GM and inquired as to what percent of the hat sale proceeds would go toward veteran’s causes. *crickets* It’s all 🐂 💩!

The perfect name for this legislation

I’d like another crack at the Dodgers. They had already played a few, real games prior.

The right wing snowflake response to 8647 was stupid. Still, it seems like the former FBI director should know better than to post slang which would be deliberately interpreted the wrong way.

Baseball....the Dodgers swept the Tigers in LA to start the season. OK, they're a very talented group of players. The Tigers won 3 of 4 from the Angels, who looked very bad. So the Angels go into Dodgers stadium and sweep the Dodgers in a 3 game series. Yup, baseball.

I was thinking about that yesterday... imagine if in early August of last year that you were told in mid May of 2025 Zach and Tork would be in the heart of our lineup because we had no better options, what would your thoughts be?

92 year old Willie Nelson and 76 years young Steve Perry...
