1984Echoes

I don't think I'm going to doubt it. I think I will choose to be inspired about it. Thank you U.S. soldiers!!!

WenCEEL!!!

Happy Father's Day to all the Motown Morons where that shoe fits...!

I'm on board. Have at it Harris. Do your best.

PS: There are other players on other NON-Central teams that I like more... I just wanted to ask the question...

Interesting players on the rosters of our fellow Central Division competitors: Cleveland: Bo Naylor, LH Catcher; Cade Smith, RH Reliever at 2.05/ 0.96/ 12.65 (career ERA/ WHIP/ K's/9). Minnesota: Brooks Lee, switch-hit 3B'man; Griffin Jax, RH Reliever at 4.04/ 1.14/ 10.0 (career ERA/ WHIP/ K's/9). KC: Jonathan India, RH'd 3B'man; Steven Cruz, RH'd reliever. CWS: Ed Quero, switch-hitting Catcher, Tyler Gilbert, LH'd reliever. Question: Should we consider a trade with one of our competitors if it's a trade Harris & Hinch like?

No. "Struggling" means losing games. Think 4-6 or 3-7 in the last ten games. That's struggling. "Scuffling" means playing .500 ball. Not surging ahead... but not "struggling" either. It's less bad. More akin to "treading water". In my grammatical opinion.

Also... Roberto Campos or Trei Cruz if someone wants to take that swing, pitching like Melton/ Hamm/ Madden/ etc. so I think an arm or two could be in play. If it's a reliever like Hoffman or Miller or Finnegan as suggested above... I don't think the price is exorbitant but I don't know what other teams' priorities are. A couple of lower-level swings, or one higher level prospect? So... Just guessing...

I still prefer Mason Miller. My highest target.

I like this one. I'm going to keep this on my radar...

If you could get more of his face in that circle so the red slash would go directly across it... I'm in. Oh, and he has to be in clown makeup. Because... he is.

This is my draft ranking for the Red Wings: 1st Tier: Porter Martone. Radim Mrtka. 2nd Tier: Justin Carbonneau. If I'm Yzerman... I'm trading up (if needed... but I think "needed" is definite...) to get one of those three guys. Those are the only 3 draftees this year on my Red Wings Radar. IMO, everyone else that I would want in a Wings uniform, is a sharpy lower tier... And I would be extremely dissatisfied in not getting one of those three. I could do a Lakovic or a Bear or... but... meh. So... heavily on my mind is... moving up in this draft, as needed. Not "IF"... "AS". Wherever Yzerman has to go to at least get Carbonneau... Please. IMO.

No... Grand Rapids competition for him. To... Sort of give him a push. IMO.

He has COMPLETELY... Turned into Mantha.

NOT at Center. Bad idea. That's not a whole lot different than saying "let's rotate our QB's to keep them fresh..."
