  1. that park is both deep and has a massive amount of foul territory for pop-ups to be turned into outs
  2. I was thinking he's like an extra from Starsky & Hutch. Guy in a bar, guy behind the counter in a store, something like that. Alternatively, starring alongside Ron Jeremy.
  3. Chafin kinda seems like he might be my new favorite Tiger
  4. obviously it's not him, he's not wearing the buzzer
  5. I used to see her at events at my kids' school, so I gather that I lived close to her somehow. Anyway, she's kind of short. And she's not Amy Andrews . . .
  6. you're fucking with me subliminally
  7. I do a fair amount of negotiating in my line of work, and we never accomplish anything with in-person sessions. Too many personalities, egos, etcetera. In my experience, the exchange of written proposals is where the real work is done. It is possible that there may be progress on that front, notwithstanding the hardly-existent in-person sessions. But it doesn't sound like it.
  8. Again going off memory, I think Willie Blair's good year was 1997. He won like 20 games and then signed with Arizona
  9. the forthcoming signing of Correa
  10. it was like three people
  11. I like the idea of more protection from the sun. I would get rid of the parking lot out front and shift the park right up to Woodward Ave., opening up a couple blocks between Comerica and Ford Field. That would be some of the hottest real estate in the City if it existed.
  12. In my experience, in any negotiation, you have to have some things to negotiate away. If there were not some things the players could live without among their demands, there would be no negotiation. None of us really know all the demands, what people really want, and what they are willing to do without.
  13. ♪ fruit salad ♪
  14. I like it. I would swap Candy and Correa, tho
  15. hahaha **** 'em If Chris is wise he'd snap up the former FSD
  16. Except its "emperor," not "president"
  17. Maybe just the '95 to '05 Braves would be okay
  18. suggests to me that the tigers didn't want him, or maybe the reds asking price in trade was too high
  19. Free agency officilay begins Nov. 8. There are a few days to exercise options and for teams to issue QOs
  20. In recent experience, it seems like the Tigers' version should be called the kennel, 'cuz everyone out there is a dog <rimshot>
  21. This. I'm generally on the players' side and I think this is a terrible idea. It will ensure only that some team pays some guys who don't deserve it.
  22. Many years ago, both MLB and MiLB had their own winter meetings, sometimes in two separate locations. Later they sort of merged into one event. SABR has a great two-volume set about the winter meetings. They have some great stories and info
