Clark and McGonigle for many years to come!

If you think wasting money on pitchers is exclusively a Harris problem, I encourage you to look around the league. Heck, he has a much better hit rate here than his predecessor!

I honestly don't think Skubal is going to get a 10 year deal. I think he will break the AAV and total $ records, but think he may "only" get 6-7 years for $330 (at 7 that's $47 mil/yr).

Before the Heritage's 2025 Plan there was the Lewis Powell Memo.

Yeah, if Weceel is the answer, you’re not asking the right question.

Per Greg Gania this is the first time in franchise history the Tigers have taken seven straight road series. Noice.

bankruptcy court is your new baby doc.

Trolls have nothing but confidence, attitude, and contrariety to add to any discussion.

If we can't agree on any of the above, then how about

It’s also a desert topping

I'd rather he just stay there. At least Outman has a good glove.

notorious big spenders tampa bay and milwaukee currently have the best records in the AL and NL. not sure how the yankees and mets can be expected to compete.

Minnesota loses. Cleveland loses. Texas loses. And bonus, Red Sox lose. Tigers now all alone in second place, and only one game out of a playoff spot. Great day to be a Tigers fan.

the unbeatable dodgers lost too...

Wow, a 7-2 West Coast Trip is pretty darn impressive. Now a huge HUGE series.

Tigers look like they will be in second place in the AL Central, one game back in the wildcard entering the biggest week of the season so far.

Min Lost Texas Lost Cle Losing to White Sox Boston Lost Seattle losing

OK, the season is far enough along and there is enough at stake where I can hold my nose and watch fake baseball.

Score runs dummies.

McKinstry throws him out at home! What a freaking throw. Wow.

Having a mostly healthy team is nice

Hinch keeps using pretty much the same line-up all the time now and they are winning. Coincidence?

And also Skubal wants a record setting deal...no thanks.

The recent offensive surge has not been led by the two mainstays of the Avila rebuild, has it? Harris' guys (Clark and McGonigle) are both very tough ABs for children who are unable to rent cars.

I don't really buy this. Pop star idolization is as high or higher today than it ever was, young people still attach to stars like Swift as strongly as the bobby soxers did to Sinatra in the 30's. No reason to at to believe it's any different in sports than it ever was. The species does not evolve very fast.

you could count on one hand the number of 30 year old pitchers in history who would be worth a 10 year contract.

This deserves to be in the Peter Chase Files. Well done.

I can’t believe how long ago - how young I was - when I first read this Bradbury short. Never, ever forgot it. So vivid. Never imagined then I’d live beyond August 5, 2026.

I forgot Bergie was a Giant. We got him in the Willie Hernandez trade with the Phillies (I think for Glen Wilson an John Wockenfuss - guess we won that one - doing this by memory, I'll have to chedk), So Bergman got traded to the Phillies, but never played for them and got traded here. Is that it? (checking baseball reference..........) Yes, I remembered that trade right !

you and I are old farts - we can rationalize everything. Tell that to the 10 yr old whose hero is off to NY or LA. He'll never have the experience we had with a Kaline or Trammell and tell me he won't be left feeling indifferent in a couple of decades when he has the money to buy his own tickets

Jobe didn't throw enough strikes, lots of full counts, but the fast ball had tons of life. He'd come up and in on RH hitters and completely tie them up

mlb wants to cap salaries so the owners can make more money. the players think its broken because the luxury tax disincentivses teams from spending. the fans think its broken because fans dont really think about history or economics, they just see what's parroted in the press and think its true. buddha is old and looks at the big picture and thinks for himself.

With Cleveland’s loss, we’ve gained at least 3 games in the last 10 on every team ahead of and 1 game behind us in contention for the 3rd Wild Card. We gained 4 on Cleveland.

He used his speed in the outfield. I think he probably wasn't elite though. Ay any rate, If Clark has a career like Lemon, I will not complain!

Commercial for Liberty University! WTF? Send your kids to pedo university.

BERT STATIS: ACHIEVED!!!

And Tork is successfully challenging pitches!

It's stuck, I can't get it. Proceeds to easily grab it. McKinstry scores anyway at least.

Wow, it looks like he’s out for another inning.

I watched the LA 97.1 and Dodgers fans are pissed about it. That makes it worthwhile for me

On the day that Jackson Jobe returns from Tommy John surgery, Tommy John in his farewell post from hospice care thanks Dr. Frank Jobe.

I agree with this. I do understand that some have never seen a championship and would like to see one, but I personally don't believe that winning a championship is the only thing that matters. I want them to have an entertaining team with a chance to win most years, but baseball can still be satisfying without a championship.

I just can’t see the wisdom in giving a gigantic long-term contract to a man who will next year be 30 years old who’s had multiple arm surgeries. Same goes for Mize. I have moved on. I am all for the youth movement, even though they’re often returning from various surgeries or will inevitably face them. I’m willing to live with the fact that the Tigers will never be in the upper tier of the handful of teams that can spend this kind of money. I’m also tired of believing that winning the World Series is the only reason for a club’s existence. This is easy for me because I have enjoyed World Series championships twice in my life and it’s great and I want that for all the rest of you who have not experienced it. But for me personally, the drama of the day in day out grit and joy and disappointment of the game is reward enough. I’m OK with downsizing my expectations and being cool with what happens. And it’s not like I have much choice in this.

Lots of offense last night.

I actually spent a number of years working on processes to clean up after coal mining. Anyone who falls for the line 'clean coal' needs to wake up and smell the Sulphur Dioxide, mercury, PM 2.5, toxic fly ash, acid runoff, polynuclear aromatics.................

Bradbury was the reason I fell in love with reading.
