The kid ain’t even 23 yet. And he’s not the only underperforming bat on the roster.

MLB trying to grow the game but cutting off accessibility. That’s how you earn market share, right?

When will the Pistons be broadcast?

Then he went on to say that the Lions didn't deserve Matt Stafford.

I thought the opening triple was ample warning. But I guess the Royals had to learn the hard way. Well, c’est la vie.

Eat it, Kansas City.

Bobby Witt Jr ain’t bad.

His career to date is less than inspiring, no argument. But I don’t mind taking a chance on him given his career his been in New York and he’s still plenty young. It’s a reasonable enough deal, if he doesn’t improve, it’s a dumpable contract.

I’m glad it wasn’t the Pistons’ turn to draft at the top when he entered the draft.

This was on an 0-2 pitch. With two strike counts, Greene doesn’t choke up, the pitcher does.

For crying out loud, let's score some damn points today, ok?

It brings to mind the concept that was floated about draft slots going around to teams based on a 30 year cycle rather than winning percentage & lottery. How fun would that be to implement now with 1sts being tossed around like candy at a parade?

Promotion / relegation involving the B10 would have been fun in 2008, eh? Its really a dumb concept to try to organize competitive balance for one season based on a prior season when there is so much player movement from team to team (graduating/transferring players in college, free agency/trades in professional). And I would say its only a consideration on this soil because of the increasing popularity of soccer (and they do it, so its kewl), and its different than what 'Murican sports have traditionally done (its different so its kewl).

Maybe he should try pitching?

TV is the CFB commissioner.

The Tigers’ offense bothers me more than a player tending to an off field family issue.

I don’t remember the exact backstory of Billups (some kind of sexual misconduct?) but you’re right that a lot of Piston fans just give him a pass for it. It’s a similar type of pass that the Tiger board gives to Miguel Cabrera for his drunken encounters and siring kids with a side piece.

Sacramento was the first team that popped into my head when I heard of the trade demand.

Ding ding ding. We have a winner.

I suspect injuries and bringing Duren along slowly will reduce the logjam on the frontcourt.

Bobby Bonilla makin' it rain tonight.

Yup. This current go round is to figure out the haves and have nots. And, really, its just how remains at the "power 5" table, or however you want to call that. Once that's figured out, the TV contracts are next. How can they be altered, how do the different networks get satisfied. Then its another round of some sort of reorganization geographical alignment. TV will be heavily involved in that to get a few USC-OSU types matchups per weekend without loading up the top tier school schedules to play only top tier opponents. There will still be the Purdue-Northwesterns because those schools minor league programs are going to be needed to fill things out. They're not going to have Alabama play a schedule of Clemson, Ohio State, USC, Oregon, Oklahoma, Michigan, Georgia, Notre Dame, LSU, Florida, Utah, Texas, Penn State. They'll figure out how to shuffle in Boston College, Rutgers, Arizona, Kansas, etc, etc.

Celebrate it, morans.

They're running out Tuesday's lineup again?
