Very well stated.

If I'm the Twins' front office and Buxton hits the IL because of a costumed weenie, I'm looking for draft compensation.

One of the aspects that I like about the deal is that the Tigers acquired a legitimate CF and a possible SS, both with some above average potential skill sets. I like building up the middle that way. In particular, I like the prospect of someone like Clark in CF with the bat that comes along with it.

Be careful out there today.

Maybe some sunshine for the next game thread leadoff post?

I’d bet he’s ready to go now. Well, do we know Hinch is just pushing the rotation back in order? This would push everyone else back a few days. It might be more ideal to skip Mize for now (have him pitch a short simulated bullpen) and try to keep the other SP on a more regular schedule.

Poor Casey Mize. He finally gets to return to actual MLB regular season action and this delay happens.

Those wretched hooligans? Off the Christmas card list.

Is FaBo the same thing that my daughter refers to as snapchat for old people?

What is wrong with you? Have you ever been to a game? Have you ever watched Slapshot? Have you ever had a Labatt?

I plan on watching if there is a game. Forecast looks to be 69 degrees and dry, although the basement is a little cooler if I have to use that TV. The roof will be closed.

May 10th is vs Houston. Does that factor into it by chance? SPACE CITY jerseys vs MOTOR CITY jerseys?

This seems a banishable offence.

I interpret it as the Tigers softened up the Jerk Sox for the Braves to have an easy series.

OK, boomer.

I looked at it yesterday, and it seems like there isn't common availability when the Tigers travel to New York to play the Yankees. So that makeup option is off of the table.

I forget how the "control" is handled over these things. I think before the game starts, its largely up to the home team but with feedback from MLB as to how to proceed. And then once the game starts, its the umpires (ie, MLB) along with feedback from the home team. I think the next reasonable day off is Thurs April 25. The Tigers are going from a Tampa 7pm game on Weds to a home 1pm game on Friday, so definitely not ideal there. The Mets have a 3pm (EDT) game in San Francisco on Weds and return home for a 7pm game on Fri. I suppose MLB could force the Tampa start time to earlier, but I don't know if Tampa could push back. Whatever happened to MLB pushing clubs for day time starts for getaway games? Maybe that doesn't apply when the next day is an off day.

Wentz or Lange?

Why is that? I never got it either.

Was Cunningham calling for traveling on the tooth?

Its 9-0, bottom of the 8th, weather sucks. If I'm the home plate umpire, I ain't waiting. Batter, get in the box, start the pitch clock.

I'm a ray of sunshine amongst the rain clouds. Its what I do.

Just think of all the May flowers.

Wait a minute. Is this related to a mid season tournament whereby the Pistons lose all games and also get future home games turned into road games?
