I don't know how insurance for player contracts works; i would think that, when they traded for him, the smart thing to do would be to say, we have this guy for X years, so we need a policy for X years. If they have to do it a year at a time, you're right, I wouldn't expect that the premium would be worth the coverage

I wonder if this is the type of thing insurance covers for the Tigers

Curtis Pride, too

the Topps BIG cards!

he's completing ligament replacement surgery daily

weird phrasing about players 'completing rehab daily.' If they're going back each day, rehab isn't complete.

Joumana is Watching . . . and you can watch the Tigers when you come on down to Joumana Park!

Charlie Morton vs. We'll get back to you

Merrill Kelly, 2.80 ERA in ~70 IP, vs. Lorenzen

glad he clarified that. i usually think he just wants things for himself. selfish bastard

From Law's chat the other day, for whatever it is worth: Dan: What to make about Torkelson? He’s just not gonna be a guy huh? Keith Law: I don’t know what to make of him – he does make hard contact, enough that he should at least be hitting for more average and at least occasional power. I’ll say I was thrilled to see Riley Greene fulfilling my breakout prediction until this very unfortunate injury, not just for me or even for the kid, but because the Tigers need a development success story. Here’s hoping he’s the first of many. But Torkelson … I’m not giving up on him, at all, but I keep going back to when I saw him the first time and didn’t think the tools matched the huge production. I thought he was just a guy, a solid college hitter without the huge upside you’d want at 1-1. I figured I got him wrong.

there are so many smart ass things to say. but there are american firefighters up there pitching in

I recall that, too, though I think it was when he was in a 'more cosmopolitan' city, i.e., before Detroit

The Tigers suck so much right now I'm surprised they didn't consume all the dirty air

it was a quick mention, with Cody saying that he understood that this was always the plan relating to positional versatility

I thought I heard him say that the move for Molloy was always part of the plan and not related to anything in particular.

Honestly, in this hypothetical scenario, I don't see a reason that it shouldn't be "The Diamond at The Round Square"

In Cork, he'd be known as a Langer

Still listed as Dane Dunning (1.67 ERA in 43 IP) vs. TBD

there is some app that Dan mentions during the broadcasts where the audio is free. Audacy maybe? I am skeptical and MLB at bat is worth the cost as you can listen to any feed for any team

the nike logo placement is a bazillion times worse than this

the two meijer execs are armed and they told manning and mize that, if they know what's good for them, they better smile and make it look good. the one guy is holding a gun to mize's back; the other just put his behind him. somehow i know that duece is getting his cut

July or August of that year was when Pudge went AWOL, too; everything started falling apart in the second half of the season

welp

Did AJ just get run? EDIT: Sorry, watching with no sound
