  1. Agree with this approach. No reason to commit beyond one more season. Since it was made clear he was coming for one season to establish himself, I wonder if there was a gentleman’s agreement that the Tigers would not put a QO on him?
  2. I don’t see that happening, nor do I think they should. He was a nice bridge and hedge in case Tork couldn’t hit. He strikes me as someone who could quickly decline and his unwillingness (alleged) to play anywhere but 2B does not fit with how Hinch likes to utilize his roster.
  3. I think Lee and Jung are in the mix at 2B next season.
  4. If he can stick at SS, he will be a generational player. And if he can’t, he’ll still be. We’re going to see him next season
  5. LLM bringing the goods, as always. Graham and Peck both intrigue me at WM. Probably no room to move them up to Erie, but looking forward to seeing how they progress.
  6. Please, please, please don’t let us lose to someone named, Zebby.
  7. I find the local radio personalities pander to the lowest common denominator by leaning into conspiracy narratives like the Tigers are cheap (false), Harris is incompetent (false) and Tenacious D is smokin’ hot (that one may actually be true). Riger, Valenti, Ryan, etc…are less informed on the Tigers than almost anyone here. Listening to crazy callers all day probably doesn’t help.
  8. So much unfulfilled hope. They were the precursor to Tram, Lou, Gibby, Big Wheel, etc.
  9. Yes, Daniella is solid. I like Johnny, too, though. Not a fan of Jonesy. In case you all were wondering. (I’ll share my thoughts on each of you later tonight after my 4th Old Fashioned)
  10. Can someone please attend tomorrow and get to the bottom of the set-up vs closer dilemma?
  11. This will be a good case to see how broken Casey is, if he struggles with the Twins tonight.
  12. They just have access. And some knowledge has probably rubbed off along the way. But I think they are more Champ Kind than Bill James. WHAMMY!!!
  13. This might be the best post of the year (so far)
  14. I’d blame Vest’s recent struggles on either a slump, something mechanics-related or injury. I doubt it has anything to do with which inning he is pitching in.
  15. Through 2 innings, Skubal has thrown 26 pitches and has 6 K’s!
  16. A day later and this one still stings. Worse loss of the year for me, given the circumstances. Hoping for a nice Skubal performance to reset things.
  17. Pretty sure even Mrs. Harris is pissed right now.
  18. There is a silver lining—all of our minor league teams have won/are winning. <ducks>
  19. Unclear why we’re using Hanifee in a leverage situation. Why not Melton?
  20. Need some 9th inning heroics because a loss will really suck with the pen giving up all of the runs.
  21. He’s gonna be safe, but Javy made a great play.
  22. Everyone who hated our trade deadline is high fiving them selves. Will avoid Twitter for a while.
  23. Cody is a pretty negative dude most of the time. Just needs to get laid. If Harris and Avila represent a spectrum of being difficult to trade with, Im on Team Scotty.
