The Pistons were winning a championship when I was a sophomore in high school.

Hey Drunk Uncle Tommy, I'd like to see some improvement in this community:

You think you’re have a bad day?

One hitter over 6 1/3 inning. Got his ERA down to 5.17.

The what not always gets overlooked in these circumstances. I’m glad you were thoughtful of it.

If Weaver hasn’t been fired by now, what are they waiting for. I can understand a theory for keeping Williams around. I don’t like it. But he’s been around for only one season. Weaver has his hands all over the worst stretch of the franchise. It’s been worse than “trust the process” which included intentionally hitting rock bottom. Sure, the Pistons are doing that now, and probably did so to an extent last season. But the direction of the franchise isn’t inspiring at all.

This might be Buddy Boeheim's night to go for 50.

Anyone else curious to see what the Oakland city connects look like?

Do the Tigers have any bats from good hitters of the past? Especially from the early to mid 90s like Whitaker, Trammell, Fryman, Phillips, Tettleton? Chop a couple up into seed like sizes and plant them. Maybe with the rain and some sunshine later on they'll be harvestable in a couple of months.

Last home game of the season.

Pitchers are going to be like running backs? Use them up, kick them to the side once they've broken down with newer & cheaper editions.

Threatening people seems unnecessary, sir.

Good thing tomorrow is a night game. Looks like the rain lasts throughout today and into the earlier part of tomorrow.

Whatever comes out of this issue, the "fix" ain't happening overnight. That much we can probably all agree upon.

He’d be foolish not to be considering how to leave. What indicates this team is on any path for serious contention while he enters his prime?

I heard this mentioned from Trevor Plouffe (I think) in regards to the baseball. I hadn’t thought of this aspect of “deadening” the baseball, actually taking out the hardness to help the grip. And maybe it’s a well known theory that I just didn’t realize myself. But the grip on the baseball might be contributing to injury as well. The harder the baseball, the tougher it is to grip, the harder a pitcher is going to have hold the baseball. So, following his theory, the pretacked baseball is easier to grip, and should reduce injury.

So I'm not an idiot after all?

For some reason I thought the discussion was about Parker Meadows, but apparently I'm just an idiot.

How do we know he is making the call for him to sit?

Probably the best defense I've ever seen out of Bogdanovic.

Embiid to Wiseman during pregame: "Hey, James, can I call you Andre tonight? Can you wear 0 on your jersey tonight?"

Except he didn't struggle.

Why did Embiid play 35 last night? Are they ramping him up for the playoffs? Seems like an opportunity rest him a bit more than they did.

Easier to win games late when the difference is a run or two rather than five or six. The pitching depth and improved defensive options should help that. Now as far as manufacturing the runs needed......

Looks like they played through the eclipse in Lakeland.
