Torkelson spends significant time in AAA, Mark Canha is the primary 1B

That is my recollection of 2011 with Brad Penny, maybe that is who gehringer_2 was thinking of

I'll second that, it is a fun book. No analysis, just tales

I know a lot of people on here don't like Turning the Corner but I think it is the best of the bunch. There is some personal banter, but based on stuff I've listened to the personal stuff on TTC is much less than other podcasts. I've tried listening to podcasts from The Athletic, not Tigers-focused but just baseball podcasts, and there is much, much more personal banter and inside-joking on them than on TTC. For me, those are positively un-listen-able. TTC I can manage.

since august 2023 as i recall

He's attempting to set our expectations high so we are disappointed because he hates the Tigers and hates Tigers fans, too

cacti park in the grapefruit league. wtf

I recall it well. Justin Thompson didn't pitch for Texas (or anybody) at all until several years later. I really liked the Cat and was disapppointed when he was traded

Starter pack, not complete equipment

i'm pissed off that nobody owes me $100M

I think the answer to that is "no." In contract law, "consideration" is anything given in exchange. I read this provision to use the phrase "cash consideration" to mean cash given in exchange. The meaning is not different than if "consideration" were dropped; it seems only to convey as sense of specificity for "cash consideration" as opposed to other consideration, like a player contract the proverbial bag of balls.

Every time I think about Kerry, I think about September, and then I think of Boesch. Crossing my fingers

kennedy went to the same HS as mike trout. no known significance.

Call me presumptuous, but I wonder what was the name that Bemboom's family told to the person at the window at Ellis Island or Locust Point, that ended up as 'Bemboom'

No colts, just Colt

Plus, he's a ****ty rapper

That could be. There was definitely a press conference (or press availability) where Al offered the MLB rationale

Nope. to each his own. I like it, and i recognize that i'm one of the few. What i was saying is that when the D on the jerseys was changed in 2019 (maybe 2018?), the rationale was that MLB was cracking down and requiring uniformity of logos, so the Tigers had to make the hat and jersey have the same version of the D. That is bull****. many teams don't have the allegedly-required uniformity. Most notably the yankees interlocking NY are different between the hat and jersey.

what is marion ilitch's design?

I must be one of the few who liked (likes) that logo. i don't want it as the main logo, but i like it as one of a few. i still wish that style of D was on the jerseys. they offered some complete bull**** about wanting logo uniformity as the reason for the change.

I think we could get by with just Natalie Kerwin

Law kept JHM off the list because he hates the Tigers

Nick Maton DFA. Devin Sweet, meet Toledo. And something or other about Bobby Witt, Jr. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/

Let's don't forget this:

I wonder about that Keith to 1B scenario. He just seems too big to be a secondbaseman. What can we get for Tork? I heard Joey Bart is available 😉
