I really would love for Grossman to go on a tear of some kind. I think there is a contending team that could use a good switch-hitting outfielder, even as a 4th outfielder. But look around the big leagues.......some decent teams with terrilbe-hitting outfielders on them. Maybe we can get some A-ball catcher. Daz was starting to look better, like something was finally clicking. Even some of his outs were hard hit. I would rather see what we've got with Cameron. Marinating at Toledo isn't going to make him better at this point. Oh, and Kerry Carpenter didn't waste any time. First AB he hits a 587 ft home run (okay, I have no idea how far it went, but as far as the box score is concerned.....) and he also had a 2b with 3 RBI. Sometimes there's s story like that...someone coming out of nowhere....why can't it be our story? And anything on Meadows? I kind of get the feeling they are going to shut him down for the year pretty soon.

I was in the middle of typing and my internet went down for a few minutes.

from Chase Field, Phoenix, AZ 72º and Roofy TV: Bally Sports Detroit Radio: WXYT-FM (97.1) and all Tiger affiliates (Ch. 187 Sirius/XM) Beau Brieske (1-6 4.07) vs. Dallas Keuchel (2-5, 7.88) Tigers roll into town like a Haboob. Will brooms be needed today? Beau "Bad Luck" Brieske has been impressive lately but not always getting run support. Dallas Keuchel making his first start for Arizona, trying to salvage his career. Dallas has not faced the Tigers this year, but in 5 appearances (4 starts) against the Tigers last year he was 1-1 with a 6.53 ERA and a WHiP of 2.032. In 20 2/3 IP against the Tigers he gave up 34 hits, 15 ER with 8 BB and 10 KJs. Those is ugly numbers. I like our chances today. Pick The Stick? I think The Rook hits his first HR today.

It's one or the other. I think Steve was with Tampa Bay when both were hired there.

Something that shouldn't be the way it is............ Uwe Krupp being in the Stanley Cup team photo on the ice after the game in 2002.

I watch the games on an older PC hooked up to a TV. I have been trying to get to this game since 9:55. Why has it taken this long? Because Microsoft Edge, which I don't ever use, has decided to force itself on me and Microsoft Edge sucks, so I could not get the feed...........I have had to reboot this damn thing twice because Microsoft Edge is a resource hog. I missed the whole first inning. Evil.

Al Kaline made his Major League debut on t his day in 1953........6 days after graduating high school.

Sir, you might wanna wash your hands.

We desperately needed an outfielder and we had too many infielders. I'm fine with the trade. I do think Meadows, once healthy, will rebound. It might not be until next season, but I am not giving up on him in half a season. Paredes still only has a .273 OBP. It's too early to really compare him to anyone, but I think, at his best, he's Jhonny Peralta - and that's his ceiling. I can live without having a Jhonny Peralta. I think Meadows could have a Bobby Higginson-like career, which before the quick decline, was pretty good.

From Chase Field, Phoenix, AZ TV: Bally Sports Detroit Radio: WXYT-FM (97.1) and all Tigers affiliates 72º and Roofy Alex Faedo (1-4 4.67) vs. Zach Davies (2-4 3.96) TIGERS TO WIN OR MY NAME AIN'T NATHAN ARIZONA !

He can relax and enjoy playing again But the problem is that if he has this spark 20 games ago, they're not completely out of it now. Ryan Raburnitis/Tony Clarkitis. That illness that wows everyone with your talent when there is really nothing to play for but stats. April counts, boys.

If Colorado wins tonight, when does Derek Lalonde or Jeff Halpern get named the Wings new Head Coach. Monday?

There used to be an art piece of a hand bursting through a bible with a coat hanger in the hand. I can't find it online.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO I HATE THAT................SCREW MLB AND SCREW APPLE

Not a fan of Siragusa. I don't like guys who think they can judge what a guy is supposed to be. The whole Man Card bullshit. Oh, sorry, I didn't know having a little culture isn't man enough for you Tony. Guess all us readers are pussies. Sad you died so young, but you were kind of a prick.

I'm having a hard time. My dog is still alive at almost 17, but I already miss him. I miss what he used to be and I know I can never have that back with him. I KNOW what I need to do, but I can't do it. He's been in the house all day. He's afraid to step off the landing and onto the porch. He's afraid to walk down the grass ramp I built him because he's afraid of falling. It's time, but I just can't do it. I'm overwhelmed with grief but also with guilt because I want to have a dog again, a dog that can do dog things and I just have this deep down feeling that I'm getting rid of him for a selfish need. I won't wait to get another dog, I will start looking immediately because my house is not right without a dog - everything is off balance without a dog here, but I can't do it. I'm so torn on this because he had a really good day yesterday (well, as good as you can have at 90 years old).

Thus increasing the importance in voting against them and not sitting it out.

Good luck with that in Texas. They're gonna punish you now. Like DeSantis punished Disney.

But Mr. Madoff said my investments were sound, he even gave me a piece of paper that said so.

The problem with black market abortion drugs is this. There are some truly evil people out there that make these things, that are not overseen and could market it as an abortion pill and even make it look like it's an abortion pill. This happens with opiates, people think they are buying vicodin from the dark web but this "vicodin" was made with something else and made to look like the real thing, often with fentanyl in it. That's what happened to Prince. He got illegal opioids, not knowing there was fentanyl in it and took his typical dose, which was higher than most since he was an addict. That'll happen here too. Buying a medication on the black market online is just a death wish. Even a heroin dealer is usually smart enough to not sell something that will kill their customers, they want them coming back. Online dealers don't care, they can't be traced and are constantly changing identities.

..........the Pistons sure had a great draft, though....

DTE paying to name a music venue. Why? I know there are other energy options, but not really. DTE didn't need the publicity. Took the name of Pine Knob away for 20 years for something that wasn't needed and we probably had to pay that expense. Always seemed dumb to me

See, the people that want to mock "Build Back Better" (only because it's Biden's phrase) don't seem to understand that if you don't, destruction. illness or even death will eventually happen. Public Works aren't sexy, they're boring as hell, not like a shiny new building or stadium, but they make our lives better and provide a hell of a lot of jobs. I don't think anyone truly has any idea how many bridges we're driving on are just one mistake, or one missed inspection or one "we'll fix it later" away from collapsing. I think if we realized it, it would scare the hell out of us.
