But owning an AR-15 is...

meh game unless something changes here...

Titus?

New Lineup: Reyes (as long as he's getting on base like he has been) Greene Torkelson Candelario Cabrera Baez ... whoever else is playing that day... EDIT: If Meadows is playing, then I slot him in between Cabrera & Baez... Maybe even Grossman should be there. And if Baddoo gets back up here... definitely in between these two...

It appears teams are terrified of pitching to Riley and walking him like crazy... Because.... He's the only "real" bat this team has, at this point in time. IMO.

That's exactly my assumption and I'm just not interested. I would say he's probably going to be a really good regular season player and a dud playoff player. And will be off the court 50% of the time due to injuries... But I'm just guessing. I'm not interested. Even if he falls to #5.

Wasn't maple always around? They just weren't used as much as ash since they were brittle and broke often (IIRC)... But with the emphasis on HR's everyone went with the harder wood and since teams are paying for the bats anyways who cares if there's lots of broken bats... ? I could be off on that... just going from memory... What do you guys remember on this...?

... becomes our #1 Position Player Prospect after Greene gets enough time in MLB...

He's 31 years old. It's not like he's the future of the Tigers... Dodgers want him/ they can have him/ what do we get?

I believe the manipulation of the baseball is specifically due to the Steroid Era. Homers Galore! and the interest in baseball skyrocketed (starting with the McGwire-Sosa great HR chase, "breaking" Maris's record, and then Bonds and "breaking" Aaron's record...). Dontcha know chicks dig the longball? And owners love raking in all that money... But then steroids testing and penalties shot up as the steroid jig was up (in 2005 or 2006 or... ? don't remember the exact year) and the longball crashed back to earth. What to do....? Hmmm... Juice the baseballs? I think that was the specific reaction to the drop in HR's after the age of steroids came to an end... Management Decision.

I really like Wenceel... But I keep inexplicably forgetting to put him on my "Top" lists for some reason...

So that works for Hill, Cameron, or Reyes... and we hope 1 of them can do a lot better than that... But there are reasons it would work for those guys and not Willi. I'm on board with the dump Grossman contingent. He's outlived his usefulness to me.

PS: I mean, it's obvious that they are at the mercy of who gets selected in the top 4. But that sounds like "code" for what if Ivey falls to us, or Chet, or Pancho? That's why I asked that question...

I hope that means that if CHET falls to 5 that they are NOT going to consider him anyways... Or if Pancho or Ivey fall to 5... is that a discussion? Let's say it's Jabari, Chet, Mathurin (surprise!) and 1 of Pancho or Ivey is selected with the other falling to #5... If Ivey falls... him, or Keegan? If Pancho falls, him or Keegan? (If Keegan somehow slips into the top 4, replace the choices with Mathurin or ______). Just wondering what everyone else thinks....

And watch Bitcoin triple immediately afterwards...

We get the Royal Flush if that happens. I don't want to count on that... certainly not quite yet... But we'll see. If that does happen... I wonder if the general attitude in here just might change...

I would say this. Pacheco, Keith, Campos, Santana & Dingler. But we'll need some more time to see who rises to the top...

So you've at least been looking in the mirror now? That's a positive step.

Fascist fucking scum.

Same... I started doing stuff around the house after the 2nd and the Tigers leading 4-1... And come back to this BEATDOWN!!!

Just so you guys know... These aren't regular runs. You can't say that the Tigers scored 14 runs today... In fact, anything over 3 runs scored in a single game, for the rest of this season, aren't regular runs... They are RAGE RUNS!!! The Tigers have scored 14 RAGE RUNS!!! today... I thought it was important to note that...

Trump can't even get on a fucking bike. Try again.

The weapons supply to Ukraine absolutely needs to pick up the pace...

Thanks for that...!

I figured they would have revelations but was too scared to hope for stunning revelations... So they still have exceeded my expectations...!
