  1. Might as well win this game today.
  2. Nah, 8-4. Let’s go, 12-4 going into the all star break. Who’s with me?
  3. I don’t think selling RPs is necessarily an acknowledgment of timing of a rebuild. Sometimes players need to moved from depth and/or it’s just time to cash in on value at its peak if it isn’t going to result in a postseason appearance.
  4. Even with a new approach, his current hard hit rate and ISO are unsustainable. Now, the question is where along the spectrum of the before and current will the new approach put him? If this is just a Sheltonesque hot streak, enjoy it while it’s there. If it’s JD Martinez light, nice work by he and the Rays.
  5. I guess I was a little late on this.
  6. Might as well win the rest of the games this season, too.
  7. Maybe he can pitch the 9th today?
  8. Checks? Didn’t you see the movie about Billy Beane? He invented direct deposit.
  9. Luck? He tripled on an 0-2 a few games ago. He lulls the pitcher into false confidence and then takes his base on a hit of his choosing.
  10. Gotta build up the all star credentials.
  11. It’s a shame posts like that have been erased.
  12. I like Omaha’s airport. Not too big, not too small, easy in & out.
  13. Might as well win this game, too.
  14. Career WAR (11 seasons) was 23.1. 7 season peak WAR was 21.5. I didn't realize how good his seasons were at ages 25 & 26 (OPS+ of 145 & 133).
  15. That’s a fair point, each team had a few scheduled due to the lost two weeks. But the extra player is allowed for doubleheaders. I think a bigger issue is the evolution of throwing harder rather than pitching.
  16. Why should teams be allowed more pitchers this year? MLB allowed 14 Ps through, what, Memorial Day or sometime after that? Do other teams have a similar catalog of pitching injuries that the Tigers do?
  17. CastroH is a master at PFP.
  18. Can’t blame Hinch here. Cleveland has given up. 19 games in 17 days. Peralta just hurt himself to go along with all of the other hurt pitchers. It’s not aesthetically pleasing, but he’s smart taking advantage of this situation.
  19. Pitchin’ Harold.
  20. Bullpen? Heck, the rotation may need him at some point.
  21. Harold picking and grinning right there. Baez taking note.
  22. It’s a given.
  23. I’ll accept it.
  24. Runners on the corners and none out. Candelario took that 3rd strike and it wasn’t really close. Inside third of the plate, but he’s got to foul it off at the very least. Torkleson had a nice swing to start off the plate appearance, but it was easily foul. Bad, bad, bad.
  25. Tigers threaten, but do not score. Drink.
