  1. Seattle Jerkiners.
  2. I can understand reluctance to tinker in the big leagues. Unfortunately it is a necessity at some points. On the other hand, there's a tipping point between tinkering and overhauling where it is best done in the minors. I go back to his debut season and still shake my head about hitting him 7th or 8th in the lineup. It wasn't a deep lineup at all. If he was really ready offensively, why was he in the bottom 3rd of the order?
  3. Good grief is that grainy. Holy crud are we old.
  4. That effort deserves acknowledgement.
  5. Pffffft…. You must be new here. This just allows for more time for ideas for the trade in the 2025 offseason.
  6. Stairway to heaven?
  7. Building a sculpture for Halloween?
  8. That CF is a ****.
  9. I wonder about the timing of the baseball with that kind of uppercut. It would seem to me that he will be prone to more swing and miss because of his bat path. That might not be so much of an issue now that he’s young and locked in at the plate. But will he be able to adjust as he ages or will he encounter a steep contact decline?
  10. That actually seems to me to be the most logical explanation of what happened on that play.
  11. Perez hasn't played SS since 2019. He had played 2B through last season. I wouldn't mind the Tigers experimenting with him that way in spring training, but I suspect he's going to be kept in the OF.
  12. Well, I remember two plays earlier this season between Perez and an IF. One of those was definitely Keith and both were calling. By rule, it should have been Perez' ball as Keith had gone out quite a distance. I want to say the other occurrance was similar/same, but maybe involved 1B rather than 2B. This clip it looked like Meadows should have had it. I don't know why he stopped unless Perez kept calling it. If both were calling, Perez needs to yield on this one. My guess is Meadows probably concluded late that Perez was probably closer to the ball than he (Meadows) thought. I guess at some point Meadows needs to keep calling and/or Perez needs to say "you" and pull off.
  13. Miller started broadcasting MLB games that young? Holy smokes…..
  14. Condensed game highlights on MLB.com the next few mornings. If only there were a way to watch that without knowing the score.
  15. Off-season trade for a P of similar situation? It seems the Tigers have some OF depth to give and P depth to gain. It might not move the needle much, but that 150 PA swapped for 50 IP helps. And who knows, maybe Fetter can unlock something and the 50 IP becomes more than that.
  16. What does the dollar figure represent?
  17. Here is the 50 yard line logo:
  18. Tonight is a long, long ways away from now.
  19. I'm probably wrong, that's usually the default, but it seems like I have not seen a Tiger series in Seattle since before COVID. It seems like the Tigers are always in Seattle during the work week, and they are all night games. This does not jive at all with my schedule.
  20. I heard this on a national show. 15-8 for July.
  21. Ohtani is signing with the Blue Jays.
  22. Y’all know the ballad of Joel Youngblood, right? Actually, it’s probably more of a story than a ballad. https://www.mlb.com/news/joel-youngblood-two-hits-for-two-teams
  23. I’m not impressed. There’s one or two of those in Toledo. Except they don’t say NASHVILLE on it.
  24. I hope not. Sounds like a risky hazard that might injure Greene.
