I like Maeda's ratios. But I'd like to see some more IP brought in. They can bring him in, and hopefully they can get 150ish IPs out of him. But I think they'll need to bring in another SP that will be expected to be in the front part of the rotation.

It was well played.

The training/health aspect of this team isn't exactly covering itself in glory so far this season.

Just kind of eyeballing the 84 team, it looks like Hernandez and Lopez accounted for around 50% of the bullpen innings.

The other tidbit that I like with that 1984 pitching staff is that they used only 14 pitchers as season long. Here we are 40 years later and no team can get through a month with only 14 different pitchers.

Not the greatest picture, but I was at a stop sign and had someone approaching me. But this is from probably 4 miles away. I think it’s more vibrant with the cloud cover than a clear sky. So, this phenomenon has only been very recent even through the greenhouse has been around for several years. Per the website, they grow tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers. I know there was chuckling about it setting up operations for marijuana, too, and that very well could be the case. I don’t know, maybe they’re growing some purple haze?

Have you watched them play? Its entirely believable.

They were 24 of 26 from the stripe. I like that.

I would think that they would want Cunningham, Ivey, Thompson, and Duren out there in crunch time now to learn the lessons that will be valuable later on.

I must have missed something. Hayes, coming off of a DNP-injury the night before, gets 14 minutes. Sasser, who appears to be a better all around player with both full strength, gets 5 minutes. What are we doing here?

That’s funny! I drive within a few miles of their “tomato” greenhouse in Ohio well before sunrise. Same effect down here. Thanks for posting.

Take Lance Lynn off of your break in case of emergency free agent desperation lists. Or your wish list if you had him there.

Cade Cunningham On Pistons: “We’re Bad,” Compete Level “Unacceptable” I'll be honest, to me it seemed more like they were completely overmatched during the game than dogging it. And you get to a point in the game where overcoming a 20 plus point deficit on the front end of a back-to-back just ain't happening and you play for tomorrow rather than today. But if Cunningham wants to call them out, hey, have at it.

Wow. It seems like the Pistons were playing with only 4 on the floor once the game hit 25-20. What an absolutely awful showing.

I think going forward, an Isaiah Livers press release is warranted only if he is healthy.

I’m not fighting with you about anything. I’m just kind of confused why you think your opinion of a rule being antiquated has any merit on whether or not the rule is a rule. The administration seems to have quieted down quite considerably in the last few days, hasn’t it? Let’s go bitch and moan in the Pistons’ forum for a bit. I’m sure we can find some common ground there.

Yeah, again, TCU was cognizant of the rumors last season. So that leads to (1) if they knew about it and tried means to counteract it, why didn't everybody else and (2) if they knew about it, how did Harbaugh "not know" about it?

Is @Tigeraholic1 sleeping in today?

We've seen your work here. You ain't getting $600 million.

This is good stuff, no question. I worked at a grocery store when I was younger and I think a lot of us can recall that The Game was the Saturday before Thanksgiving. I remember that the Saturday morning of game day, the place was busy selling snacks, beverages, tailgatey stuff. Then 3-4 hours of silence during the game. Then, the place got busy again, this time with the attention turned towards turkey related provisions.

Sure, its antiquated. Unfortunately its on the books. Maybe the UoM compliance department should attack its job with an enthusiasm that keeps the program within the letter of the current law.

Shouldn't those contributions to the game combined with his stats be hall of fame worthy?

Yup. I was interested in Kathy Ireland back in the day. Alas, no reciprocation.

I guess the difference is that there is a rule against the specific type of advance game scouting in person which Michigan violated, and they got caught doing so, and now they have a punishment to serve. The fact that two coaches have been fired and Harbaugh accepted a suspension vs Ohio State is pretty much an admission of such violation (or perhaps others as well), don't you think?

What position does Malloy play? They may have quantity of position players, but do they have quality?
