  1. Greene and Canha are on pace for 30 home runs.
  2. So, 56 AB's...multiply by 10 for a full season, 40 steals and 130 RBI. I know I know, SSS and nobody cares about counting stats but still...he is at least meeting expectations don't you think?
  3. I did the same, and stopped fraying the left wrist on all my sweaters
  4. Winning 12 out of 22 isn't bad at all. I would like just a slight improvement...13 out of every 22 for the rest of the year.
  5. Off've, thats some of your finest work.
  6. The name Bailey Ober makes me think of the pilot Clarence Oveur
  7. I love Wenceel Perez, one of those guys you could follow in the DSL and the GCL, and he was a shortstop back then which made him really interesting. He stalled for a couple of years but came back and had a huge year in 2022, tailed off a wee bit last year, and one offseason genius, I forget which one, did not include him in the Tigers top 30. So whoever that guy was, Wenceel has given him, in the words of the immortal Lou Brown, a nice big sh*tburger to eat.
  8. I don't think anybody said they hated him. I would just tell him that he's a pro now, so act like one, and for your own sake don't ever reveal that you have rabbit ears.
  9. Olson has 7 K's through 4 innings, on only 55 pitches. So far so good.
  10. Or, he might have fractured 15 bones in his body all at once on that one play.
  11. I don't really care for that, he needs a responsible adult to tell him to stop doing that. That needs to come right from Harris, right from the top, right now. This organization does not employ punks. Stop. Now.
  12. Brilliant. Avila's lasting gift is Hinch, whose in game management wins and gaffes result in a net zero effect on overall team performance. He is neither a positive nor a negative. He is a 0 WAR manager, like all the rest of them.
  13. Hey Lange the bus for Toledo leaves at 8:15. Be under it.
  14. Highlight of the day: Wenceel's first hit, first stolen base.
  15. Maeda got through 3 innings on 40 pitches, very efficient
  16. Manning is at 78 pitches...one more inning at most
  17. That Toledo lineup looks better than some Tigers teams of recent memory.
  18. Yeah, the good old days were almost 50 years ago now, but I was found in the bushes outside my university residence building, early on a Sunday morning, after having bought and consumed a lot of beer at the folk club on Saturday night, The legend was that it was 20 but realistically probably only 14.
  19. You see, I played this game, and I know a 100 mph fastball when I see one, and that's not a 100 mph fastball.
  20. Corrected to say first base coach, not third
  21. I know it's only spring training but when a guy gets picked off at second by such a ridiculous margin, does the third base coach not get his butt kicked up to his shoulders? Here is how you coach third base, with a runner at second: you yell at him YOU WATCH THE PITCHER! I'VE GOT THE SHORTSTOP AND THE SECONDBASEMAN!
  22. Lol!!! According to the late Norm Mcdonald nobody has a worse potty mouth than Uecker, which in my mind somehow makes him even funnier.
