OK, so he grabbed the wrong bottle. Those things are typically stored alphabetically, and it should go ....sunblock, steroids, Tinactin, Tums,...., but someone (probably Hosmer or Voit on their way out the door) switched up the steroids and Tinactin.

Oh, I apologize, its perfectly acceptable to have a one legged DH. Please proceed with the Cabrera slobberfest.

N-o. H-no. F-no. Eastern Notes: Pistons, D. Green, Celtics, Sixers

Sweet! Another arm to call up and injure.

But, hey, at least people got to see him play in this game.

Only a couple of grand slams short.

Reads to me as the rest of this season, 2023 ($32M), and either he plays in 2024 ($30M) or is bought out from 2024 ($8M). So minimum of $40M after this season seems to be correct if its as simple as Cots has it laid out.

Detroit Tigers (43-71) at Chicago White Sox (57-56)

Fixed it for you.

I was in there for a short bit before you left. Wasn’t CJ Nitkowski in there a few times, too? I remember Baseball Weekly had an article about the internet and baseball merging more and Nitkowski was one of the players known to interact with fans over the interwebs. Look at where things are now with Twitter and the like. Crazy how it’s evolved. @RedRamage dragged me over here from some alt sport baseball Detroit Tiger message board around 2003 or 2004. He’d been talking about this site for quite a while. There were a few other folks that migrated over from there, fewer still active here now. So you morans can blame Red.

Valid point, sir.

Norris is going tonight? I tell you what, I just got back from the beach, traveling via van, and I feel absolutely zen as hell. I’m stoked for tonight. I’m calling 8-2 victory tonight. Jump on the bandwagon early, seats are still available, but we set sail promptly at 7:10p.

On the flip side, because of Meadows’ fielding deficiencies, isn’t he a bit of an obstacle as well? Ideally, this team should have as many two way performers as possible in the daily lineup.

I wouldn’t go at him for immediate retirement. But as if he now, if he isn’t available to play on a daily basis he need to go to the IL. Now, longer term, there needs to be a discussion about being in shape and ready to go for next season. At Cabrera’s age, sure, there’s going to be more aches and pains. But I don’t think Cabrera is doing himself (or his team) any favors with his conditioning.

I thought we weren’t s’posed to mention that? I thought this was discussed at the Liston Rule V party?

Until divisions get reracked, you are correct. I suspect that could be the same if MLB realigns before expanding. Detroit would likely be a swing team with no real rivalry (like putting the New Yorks together in the same division), but even then, they’re probably going to be added in with similar rust belt and/or middle markets.

There’s a lot of grit and badass in that picture.

My first instinct is to say UoM & OSU will never not be at noon. And then I remember USC & UCLA will be in the Big Ten soon. Is this a haiku? What did I just do? Oh, no, its a limerick, you buffoon.

Good for him. Maybe this can get things going for him.

Still trying to get a count on this season.

They need to make all of the changes that need to be made, even the hard ones.

Cabrera won't. Heck, he might not be next season.

Variety is the spice of life.

You don't check for game threads right after you open your eyes? What kind of fan are you?
