Anybody got a report on how Jahmai Jones looks in CF?

Welcome Jose Urquidy! <shrug>

if you guys think you're making this sound bad . . .

for the grounds crew, ticket-takers, drinks-sellers?

Pot, meet kettle

Skubal 3IP, 3K, 1H. Jays got to Foley, who followed Skubs

we have no CF right now

when Javy is back at SS we'll see how Colt is adjusting to 1B

I was afraid this was real until I saw that it was from Bert

what does jobe's gf look like

These are great, thanks for sharing. I thought I knew a lot of Tigers from the 1990s but I couldn't come up with their names. I had a lot of instances the way I remembered Dave Borkowski -- local guy, pitcher, later played for Houston -- but I couldn't remember the names.

Meh, he's too likely to wind up injured

Ah, memories of Karim Garcia. He was the best player in Mexico, y'know

But only if they won. Losers don't get juice boxes

I remember being puzzled by that, too. Hamelin's LH power seemed like a good fit for Tiger Stadium. I always just chalked it up to Randy Smith being a bozo.

that outfield looks . . . short

he hasn't hit LH pitching much since 2019. i'd sooner roll with Vierling-Ibanez

I don't think the Tigers really ought to be interested in Arenado. The point of a RH third basemen is to hit LH pitching, and for a few years Arenado has actually hit RH pitching much better than LH pitching (and hasn't hit LH pitching very well). Unless they just want somebody who can actually play 3B, he isn't the solution.

it is time that should be in the best shape of his life

Law hates the Tigers and only complimented the team in this manner because he knew it would sow discord among Tigers fans

I am happy for faster games but I also think the 6:40 start time is bad. I can virtually never make first pitch because I work for a living, and not downtown.

Jones is a basketball name

A lot like George Best: ‘I spent a lot of money on booze, birds, and fast cars. The rest I just squandered.’

The holidays got in the way and I never continued this conversation. The "have some fun with it" was in reference to fans, like me, who bring this up. But I bring it up because Verlander, at least, compares favorably to somebody like Alex Cobb. They both stunk in 2024. But they were pretty similar in 2023 (Max was a little behind but not too far). So if that is the type of guy the Tigers are looking for, yeah, it appeals to me to bring back Verlander. And if we think Fetter & Co. can coax more performance out of Cobb, why do we not think that about Verlander or Scherzer? I don't really expect that it's going to happen, but I like the idea.
