Please Win

Amen

Something very strange is going on here...could it be illuminati involvement?

Looks like we are having a difficult time signing those odd numbers: rounds 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 17, 19 still unsigned. 18 is the only even number unsigned.

Another must win game...

Must win!

If they do this, I want to have the batboys be the ones hitting. First one to hit a home run wins. #NowItMatters

Just tuned into this thread for the first time, so sorry if this has already been said... I hate the All-Star game and the break! I hate it that I don't have Tigers baseball for FOUR DAYS! I hate it that the Tigers almost never play on my birthday because of the dumb All-Star game! (...rant over...)

I wonder if they gave Cal Raleigh a ride or made him catch his own flight after that 2-homer night...

I agree. But with them added, are we satisfied with one swing and miss addition only?

If the rotation is shortened to 3 or 4 in the playoffs, then Montero and SGL could be moved to the bullpen displacing folks like Hanifee and Lee. Does that give make us feel at all better about the bullpen? Does that affect who/how many relievers we try to add at the deadline?

Watch it, that kind of joke could get you fired. Sincerely, Jack Morris

If Harris trades for Skenes, I believe it will be to help this season AND to be free to trade Skubal during the offseason before he becomes a free agent. So, whatever high cost it takes to get Skenes will be offset by whatever return we get from Skubal (minus the worth of the comp pick we would get for letting him walk). That offset might mean making a deal is possible.

Yes it is. Fun read. Thanks for sharing it!

You know what Jim Price always said about thinking: don't do it!

Let's win this series tonight!

I wonder if the Tigers go big on getting a SPer at the deadline (I don't know what top quality starter might be available) with the obvious hope of winning the WS this year, but also to give them the option of a replacement for Skubal (of course, anyone would be a step down) so that they feel free to trade him a year before he becomes a free agent. That way they can possibly get a better package for him.

Rain is past where I am, so let's play ball! (Of course, Madrid Spain might not matter much in the decision making...)

I always wanted an Omar Moreno rookie card! 😎

Must win!

Must win...

Must win. Big difference between splitting a 4 game series and winning it.

How strange that I really like and get excited when Pitching Chaos is on the schedule...
