“real” 🙄

Roger Dean for the win.

In my ideal world, Miggy goes to the DL, Carpenter is back at DH, Schoop goes away and Nevin is given another shot, with Kreidler an option when he’s healthy. Keith and Malloy get more time in the minors and benefit from it. Miggy gets a chance to return later for a send off. No, I don’t expect that to all happen. 😕

Re Faedo

Hope to have Carpenter active soon.

No offense, but I take an internet poster’s opinion of ERod’s “loyalty and teamsmanship” with a huge grain of salt. It may be very accurate, but is still just an opinion.

His “justification” for his rights- to drive his SUV over protestors was both insightful and iciteful. 😳. That and the Infowars garbage.

Instead, they increased it.

Chas, I think you are way, way off in characterizing posters stance on this. IMO. 😎

Does this increase the odds of them picking Bijan? Less WR capabilities (for 6 games), but more RB punch (and RB passing targets).

Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly is a term I was previously unfamiliar with.

If he’s a horse, give him invermectin, if he’s hoarse, give him a Ricola.

Wow, I hadn’t realized you had briefed Trump. 😎

Are you suggesting replacing Hinch with “another mediocre manager”? At this point finding anyone competent who wants to manage the team would be challenging and likely produce similar results or worse.

Bud Light is a sin (non-religious type) for what’s in the can, not what’s on the can.

Agree that the 40 games was meant allowing sufficient time to have an idea about the team, it’s strengths and weaknesses, not so much about record.

What is your favorite color?

Unless Schoop produces in the first 6-8 weeks, I expect him to be gone long before the trade deadline. Short leash.

While the racist aspect is appalling, the two black reps can be appointed by their county government (blue) to fill the vacancy, whereas the white rep was from a purple-leans red county. At least that’s what I heard on NPR.

I left Veiling off my list of “see how they do this year” guys. I made him my adoptee, so I can either support him unequivocally or assume he sucks, like most of my past AATs. 😶

ST provided a little bump in optimism for me, seeing PMeadows do well in particular, but not enough to expect the season to be fun to watch. Three games in I am not ready to declare it a disaster. My focus will be on whether they can determine if Malloy, Maton, Nevin, Kreidler, Carpenter maybe Baddoo, Ibanez or McKinstry are worth keeping around for the future. Ideally as valuable regulars, but even as platoon or utility players. Meanwhile watching Keith, Lipcius and Meadows in the minors. To the question of free agents, I was interested in Haniger too, but his injury history makes the three year contract a poor one to me. Maybe the Tigers will invest the Miggy $s in 2024 on a couple solid players (hopefully with only a small overpay in dollars and not in years). Knowing which, if any ,of the above mentioned parts are worthwhile future components would help knowing where to assign those dollars. For 2023, watching Rogers instead of Barnhart, Carpenter at DH (Miggy not getting that many PAs for whatever reasons), seeing if AMeadows shows old form, does Tork progress, Greene get better-all those are enough to keep some level of interest for me.

Inconceivable!

I think it’s worth pointing out the the poll refers to hospitalization risk. Risk, not actual hospitalization. I see it as merely showing that Democrats had a higher awareness of the risk of going unvaccinated and that included the worst case outcomes.

Some polls. 🙄

My assumption was he received unlimited pig snuggling and that was all he needed.
