  1. Ok, I like this. There was a rumor earlier this week, but I didn’t consider it likely to happen. Now go get Kim, King, and Fairbanks.
  2. Don’t fault Michigan for trying. But ND has the playoff decision go against them and they lose their head coach to Michigan in the same week? I’d hate to see Freeman go to Michigan, but the tears from that ****hole out west would be lovely.
  3. I just jumped on baseball reference and one of the featured player pictures was Chet Lemon. And then I think about head first dives into first base. And one handed fly ball catches just above the left shoulder. And a dirty jersey by the 4th inning. And that time on NBCs game of the week where he introduced the Tiger lineup and he had a nickname for everybody and “Redneck” was used 3 times. And, my, how far graphics have come since then. Ok, back to GM bickerbate.
  4. Freeman leaving Notre Dame for Michigan? That’d be something, wouldn’t it?
  5. If the Pistons were to have an open roster spot, would you consider Chris Paul just for the experience factor? I wouldn’t alter the rotation for him, he fits in where he fits in. And maybe he doesn’t want that end of the bench. But maybe he’s at a point where he isn’t picky, a playoff run is better than nothing for him?
  6. Kim, King, and Fairbanks. Maybe another multiple inning LHRP. Then they’ll be fine for Opening Day provided good health.
  7. Mets kind'of rhymes with directionless.
  8. How do we know this is true?
  9. I heard some silly stat today. It was along the lines of SGA playing in only 13 of OKC’s 4th quarter this season because of how dominant they’ve been.
  10. Jones was a great story last season. I just have my doubts that there’s a repeat season from him.
  11. Could they really get that much? I realize the Dodgers have a good farm system, but I’m more interested in where the prospects stack up amongst the league rather than just solely within an organization. If the prospects are a top 25, a couple top 50s and another top 100, and the current starting pitcher is legit, then the Tigers pull a Boras and take that to market. Who knows, maybe the Mets or Phillies up the ante on the Dodgers and the Dodgers add on top? Seems nutty, I probably wouldn’t do it from the other side, but who knows if this escalates.
  12. Its rule 5 draft day. Shoutout to @Jim Cowan.
  13. Add in another RP or two.
  14. Underpromise & overdeliver.
  15. We can get this hammered out before noon.
  16. We don’t know for sure. I realize there’s only one more guaranteed season of Skubal on this deal. Any team acquiring him risks losing him to free agency, and who knows if a qualifying offer will be a thing after a new CBA is put into place. So that kind of puts a damper on a return. The Tigers are playoff contenders and have one of the very best pitchers in the sport. Losing him creates a hole in those playoff hopes. Of course, they could fill that slot and raise the rest of the roster skill set to offset that. But to lose a SP of that magnitude really puts a strain on a club. So that kind of puts a premium on a return. Maybe I’m wrong, but I just don’t see a team offering enough to make the Tigers willing to trade Skubal. They’ll take calls, do their due diligence, yada, yada. I just think in the end the Tigers keep him for the 2026 season. And if some team does find a way to pry him away, the cost will be vast.
  17. Go back to a computer system and take the back room discussion out of it.
  18. Wow, that seems surprising to me.
  19. Someone needs a hobby.
  20. Have the Browns been extended an invite?
  21. Are there any Canadian universities that want a crack at it?
  22. They did hold Purdue to 30 points. Did the committee ignore that?
  23. 68 because of the Tuesday & Wednesday night play in games.
  24. student athletes
