I would think sparring with Canada and this ridiculous on off on off on off tariff would work against King Trump, too. If the tariffs are enacted, steel and aluminum are going to affect everyone in some way. But who knows, I cannot fathom he was elected again given his history, so what do I know?

Is this akin to misery loves company?

Baseball City. I had forgotten about that.

How incredibly immature.

False. Moreover, these tariffs are just going to be passed onto the consumer.

Uhm..... Seems like you're in the wrong spot.

Chafin has pitched in a game. Friday? Kahnle was being held back due to pitching late into the postseason last year. I suspect the same for Flaherty. Flaherty is due to start tomorrow.

It could be worse. The injuries aren’t good. But at least the Tigers have someone in the fold that seems to be playing well enough that breaking camp with him on the roster wouldn’t be a terrible thing.

I’m not saying anything about what kind of person he is. I just don’t see why there needs to be stink about posting activities elsewhere. If you want to converse with someone, so be it. If you want to ignore someone, so be it.

Should be interesting to see how that affects canned goods, which, oh wait a second, weren’t grocery prices promised to be reduced?

So, Eddie George just pulled up into the “neighborhood”. That’s kind of interesting.

I forget, are we tariffing today anyone or is that tomorrow?

I understand the desire to write him off. But if the surgery does the trick for him physically and he can make changes to his approach such that he’s himself defensively and closer to career norms at the plate, that’d be a good thing for the Tigers. Sunk cost, so sure, if he’s no good anymore, release him. But if he can rebound to a level that benefits the Tigers, let’s enjoy that.

So what? Make your choice to ignore or not and live with it.

They’ve got to bring back the growling, bat eating, winning Tiger and the sullen, ice bag wearing, beaten (but ready to get back after it tomorrow) Tiger.

What’s the problem with the ignore list?

The reports of Giancarlo Stanton’s elbows are some combination of distressing / disturbing / confusing. Both elbows might require surgery? Good grief. Did these guys shave too much? Should the Yankees have lifted the facial hair policy years ago?

While we’re talking age, I hate the word “kiddos”.

I remember Cincinnati and Cleveland being in the Grapefruit. I think the Reds might have actually been the closest competitor to the Tigers. Plant City, Florida?

Agree, it shouldn’t have happened that way. But part of Stewart’s issue is that he allows himself to respond badly often enough that he’s got the reputation of a quick fuse now. They also gave Curry a tech, but I think the ref mentioned it was for responding to Stewart rather than instigating.

I wonder if Jahmai Jones is that OF depth. 8 don’t know what he looks like in CF and I know spring stats aren’t the greatest barometer. But it sounds like he’s making the most of his opportunity.

I think in 2021 MLB was real particular about not having the Florida teams travel too much outside of those pods because of COVID. It seems like the Central Florida and Gulf of Mexico teams had their 5 team pods and rotated a team from each to cross into the other pod every day. The 5 Atlantic teams stayed on their side, maybe having split squad doubleheaders to fill the void of the odd team not always having a day off. It’s kind of interesting to me the evolution of teams moving from Florida to Arizona. It used to be 18 teams in Florida and 8 teams in Arizona. Now it’s split 50/50. I kind of wonder if more teams will migrate to Arizona. It’s certainly a better geographical standpoint with reduced game to game travel and it seems like the facilities are probably newer.

That’s awesome. My wife was watching TV today when that popped on. I’m the same age as you guys. I don’t recall seeing this movie, but I know I watched a bit of Father of the Bride 2 with my wife a month or so ago. So, I guess they were a bit older then. But the age thing does kind of trip me up every once a while. The guy that works for me is about the same age I was when I started at our place of employment. He was in high school after I started working there. Things like that.

They looked good at the corners on the radio. But Keith didn’t sound good on the one play.

Check out those pillars somewhat obstructing the view.
