If the Tigers retain Eduardo, which I don’t think is far-fetched, I could see us revisiting trade talks with the Dodgers, but with Skubal instead. They’d have to have some confidence that Mize and Turnbull will be in the mix next season. A cost-controlled Skubal would have more value to a team like the Dodgers and net a bigger return. Clearly they have a strong farm and willingness to trade to fix their pitching staff, which relies on a lot of question marks. I would love to know who we were receiving in return for ERod and Jake, if he was in fact part of it.

Yes—gonna be bumpy the rest of the season.

What’s going on the 30-year old Tigers bat boy that looks like a cross between Greg Allman and Joe Dirt? He’s perched next to AJ like his new bench coach.

Geez. Jake just got “Torked” on that call.

That didn’t age well

Speaking of struggling to strike guys out…

Was hoping for at least a 5-6 pitch AB from Miggy. Not three straight strikes. Let’s get Bibee out of there.

It’s like a little Vegas, though—incredibly popular summer destination for tourists.

Not surprising, right? Was a pitcher before being drafted and considered a strong arm. I agree with the notion of playing him at 3B, until he absolutely proves he is completely incapable of it. The other option is 2B, but that spot is probably easier to solve.

Charlie Spikes

That’s not true. He’s easily first ballot—guy is universally respected and loved.

Things I like: Seeing that Toledo has scored a lot of runs Things I don’t like: Tyler Nevin is the hitting star

of all of the good stuff in this game, zero walks from Lange might be the most encouraging.

Jax to Cisnero, “Hold my beer!”

Just tell me how many damn curly fries that is!

Somewhere, Al Avila is smiling

I said I’d allow it, already.

I’m down with that, if feasible. Or will he have another mysterious injury?

Tork, Greene and Carpenter all making Al appear to be a genius. Javy Baez helping to offset that.

Please cut Ibanez and Diaz and bring up Wenceel and Lipcius

He’s the kind of pitcher you would take a chance on in free agency. Except that we already have him.

Usually the best advice. That song is particularly creepy as it acknowledges that, “hey, maybe I shouldn’t do this”.

At best, he’s making $150K in real estate in those areas and type of buyers. I would think a full-time radio gig would pay at least $300K?!?
