Yeah IIRC he was pretty highly touted coming into that COVID shortened draft but dropped to us do to signability concerns. So even though he wasn't technically a 1st or even 2nd round pick he very well may have had the talent to be one which is another reason that makes me more of a believer in him.
-
Yeah we don't need a scout to tell us whether Kerry Carpenter is actually somebody to get legit excited about, the fact that he hasn't got injured yet is all the confirmation I need to realize that he probably is destined to just be an organizational guy, if he was destined for more he'd already be hurt by now.
-
Keith is one of few bats that actually showed any promise in the entire system this season so naturally he gets hurt.
-
A little off topic but it has to do with an athlete changing sports in his 30s, anyway I maintain that Michael Jordan picking up a bat in his 30s for the first time in 15 years and going straight to double A and hitting .202/.290/.266 is one of the more underappreciated sports accomplishments ever. If Golden Tate can match those numbers in single A I will be impressed.

Not sure if it's been mentioned or not but Heyman reported that Rodriguez is on the restricted list due to marital issues. The wife is probably pissed at him that due to his suckiness to start the year they may be stuck in this organization for the whole contract. On a serious note I hope he gets everything worked out and I suppose from our standpoint this is probably better than if it was a substance abuse issue like some people thought it could have been.

Weatherman straight up murders the Cowboys!
-
Steph doesn't make a 3 the entire game and the Warriors still win. Now 1 game away from another championship.
-
The fact that we finally hit a HR and scored 5 runs almost feels like a win even if it wasn't one in the standings.
-
Trevor Thompson said during the game that he will indeed still be getting paid while on the list FWIW.

WHERE"S MY 2 RUNS!?!?!

Lions Draft Grades and After Draft Talk/What's Next?
RandyMarsh replied to AlaskanTigersFan's topic in Detroit Lions
Even if we don't get Stroud or Young there are a few other QBs in this draft that I'm really high on at this point namely Will Levis from Kentucky. He has all the traits to be a star in the NFL, prototypical size, good mobility and a howitzer for an arm. Also playing in the SEC you don't have to question the competition he faces. The lazy comp is Josh Allen but really he has the tools to be like him. Tyler Van Dyke from Miami and Tanner Mckee from Stanford are two more names to keep an eye on and guys I could see on the Lions radar if they indeed pick around 10, both of whom I feel are better than any QB prospect that was in this draft and would be worthy of being a first round pick assuming they progress at their current trajectory this year and don't pull a Sam Howell or Spencer Rattler. -
It's really frustrating when you think of our seemingly never ending rebuild then you see posts like this about the Guardians who basically rebuilt on the fly after years of winning division titles.

The Yankees have hit as many HRs in the past 2 games as we have in the past 3 and a half weeks or 700 plate appearances. On the season we have 30HRs in just under 2100 or 1 HR in every 70 PAs and trending downward, for reference Jose Iglesias for his career is 1 for every 85. At our current rate we could be to Iglesias' HR rate by the end of the month.

Perhaps we need to find our own Slippin Jimmy and Kim Wexler to come up with some schemes to embarrass Chris so bad and ruin his reputation enough that it almost forces him to sell the team!

Rangers tie it up late only for the Lightning to respond with the eventual game winner like 20 seconds later. I'm sure Rangers fans will be bitching about that go ahead goal being interference for the whole offseason.
-
That's sweet! I wonder if they did other things like this that have gone unnoticed? Like when the Yankees were in town show a Yankee fan that is looking down on his luck and put something like "That feeling when you realize your team has never beat the Tigers in the playoffs before."
-
Judge is now at 24 on the season, we're currently stuck at 30.
-
Yankees have hit more HRs in their 30 PAs today than we have in our last 440.

Took a walk in the park today and there were a couple graduation parties going on in the pavilions. Seeing that always brings a smile to my face, not only for the kids involved and thinking about how much I enjoyed my party and going to friend's parties but the main reason is to me it just reminds me that summer has arrived!

I totally get fans frustrations which leads to booing but I never really agreed with booing of the home team or players unless it was due to complete lack of effort.
-
Wilmer Flores with a solid outing for Erie. Went 5 innings of 2 run baseball but had 8Ks and 1 walk. Only gave up 1 extra base hit which was a double so it appears that they may have just singled their way to the 2 runs. Also Dingler just hit his 5th HR of the year in the game as well.
-
That's just awesome!
-
On a positive note, it's crazy to look at a Tigers box score and see all 4 relievers used with ERAs at 2.50 or lower. Plus aside from them 4 we have Vest, Lange and Peralta with sub 2s and even Jimenez is at a respectable 3.10 with a sub 1 WHIP. That's 8 deep out of the bullpen! Yes some of these guys will surely regress but even if a few do that is still amazing to have that many guys having great seasons.
-
Congrats on the win but I just have to point out something I just realized. We have not hit a HR since Daz hit the go ahead homer in the 8th all the way back on June 2nd 10 games ago!

I could potentially see Chet dropping if he gets by OKC but I don't think he will though. With all the draft capital they have I think they can afford to swing for the fences for him and hope he turns into the unicorn prospect that some people think he can be. If for some reason they pass he could slide a few spots potentially cause I'm not sure how much Houston or Sacramento value him at. If he somehow makes it to us though I think Weaver would either take him or hopefully trade the pick for another team willing to give us a haul for him.
