  1. Where would you have him? What if they had him at 101? Is there much difference between the two?
  2. Maybe you should send the instant pot to Edman as a gesture of gratitude.
  3. Yes, perfectly. It kind of makes me wonder how fans might react towards Harris if Candelario does bounce back to a 2021 type season.
  4. When Shepard was named permanent play-by-play, I thought there would be gradual improvement over the years. Maybe with Morris out of the booth, he can be a little less stark struck and improve upon where he is? I do think that could be part of the issue. Then again, I'm of the age where I've heard a lot of broadcasting by guys that ranged from pretty darn good to iconic, and I think a lot of other folks around these parts fit my demographic. Have we been spoiled? Are we expecting too much? Is what we get from TV similar to what happens for a lot of other MLB teams?
  5. My mother-in-law buys us scratch offs for Christmas. I would rather have the cash. I used to have to deal with the lottery when I worked in a grocery store in the past. Yes, a lot of "frequent flyers", and sad because this store was in a lower income area.
  6. So we ain't heading to the casino this weekend?
  7. Was it just the normal clock stopping shenanigans exacerbated to a higher degree?
  8. Chicago Bulls vs Detroit Pistons
  9. I thought bbref had number of different lineups used in a season, but maybe they don't? It'd be interesting to see what the total was last season and this year will stack up next to it.
  10. Bad joke was bad I guess.
  11. Speaking of grab & go Taco Bell.... WATCH: Man comes to dead stop on I-75, eats Taco Bell
  12. Rogers has missed a lot of game time. He might show well enough in camp, but I’d wait on it.
  13. Maybe, maybe not. He doesn’t control the strike zone and he isn’t really versatile. I think his defense is due for a sharp step back without the shift.
  14. Harris is combing the waiver wire for a GM.
  15. Assuming reasonable health and no other significant changes between now and then: Green will be the CF. He's earned it. Baez will be the SS. He's earned it (over the course of his career). Meadows will be the RF vs RHPs for sure. He's earned it (over the course of his career). Cabrera will be the DH around every other day at minimum when healthy. Haase will be the primary C. Everything else is probably up in the air, and lineups will likely be different on a day to day basis. Certainly there is hope that Torkelson earns 1B out of camp and that they can cobble together a roster that is well rounded and flexible as there are probably going to be many platoons, call ups, send downs, etc.
  16. He drew, what, 3 or 4 charges today? Another loss, but they were undersized, Bojanovich was out, Stewart got into early foul trouble, etc, etc. On to Paris.
  17. We’re not allowed to hope for better than we’ve got.
  18. It’s Sunday. We should all be polite to one another day.
  19. Has he posted his expected 2029 Tiger roster yet?
  20. It’s worth noting the injury recovery. What’s baffling is that his hard hit rate and BABIP, and SLG aren’t just career lows, they are absolute outliers. I suppose small sample size is part of the reason.
  21. Cow tippin’ party?
  22. So, let’s pretend I’m an idiot. I don’t know what the -12500 means. But it appears this individual wagered $1.4M in order to turn that into $1.4…M, a net gain of only $11,200? So the risk is losing that $1.4M and the reward is recapturing the $1.4M along with the $11.2K? Seems not worth the effort, but I could be wrong.
  23. New York Knicks vs Detroit Pistons
  24. Shreve doesn’t seem to be a good pitcher either, but he’s also on a minor league deal. $3M isn’t much for a not good pitcher, sure. It just seems like there are better options than Cisnero, especially with all of the waiver wire claims being brought in along with the already in house options. I would bet had Cisnero been nontendered, he’d have gotten no more than a minor league deal with an invite to camp and incentives based on making the major league roster out of camp, incentives for innings pitched, an opt out of the minor league deal after camp if he didn’t make the major league roster.
