  1. Nice AB, Tork (ignore the broadcast commentary).
  2. Does the lottery go into effect next season, as we are projected to finish with a top 3 pick? Would be just our luck to fall in the draft order.
  3. That’s the problem—we’ve endured his prolonged slump. Now I want to benefit when he starts raking again. Your point is valid, though, if you get tempted by another team near the deadline. It didn’t happen last season.
  4. No, we gave up on him because he was blocked and had younger guys in the lower minors at his position. But most importantly, we were able to upgrade our OF and lineup in Meadows.
  5. Yep. Olsen is another that I omitted.
  6. Some promising individual performances in the minors so far—Clemens,Wenceel, Sequeira, Keith, Pacheco, Carpenter, Wilmer, Dylan Smith, Madden, and even Jobe has been good for a young guy that the Tigers seem to be bringing along slowly.
  7. I agree—he’ll be fine.
  8. It was a joke, son.
  9. Well, it is a fan board to discuss all things Tigers. What are the things that are off limits that we should avoid here?
  10. Monster K rates? 28% last year, 23% so far this year. Not bad, especially for someone with power.
  11. You’re missing the silver lining—we’ll save on having to pay him any performance bonuses.
  12. I like the SS they signed—was only 23 last year and put up monster numbers in the minors. Not so much this year, but solid—definitely worth a look.
  13. Your fault for reading anything from Lynn.
  14. Playoffs? We’re 11 games under .500 with 5 starting pitchers injured before mid-May. The season now is about the young players getting reps and hopefully some players emerge/surprise. Buckle up for a bumpy season, folks
  15. Anyone see Faedo’s fiancé on the tV broadcast? She looks like a cross between these two. Well done, Alex!
  16. Yes—agree that we will likely need to replace Grossman. I’ll assume Meadows and Greene have the other two spots. Internal candidates would be Hill, Daz and Baddoo, so this season is critical for them.
  17. I don’t see it. We still have Daz, Baddoo and Greene in the wings.
  18. I think we’ll see Reese Olsen or Garrett Hill before Fulmer moves into the rotation.
  19. TJ surgery has become a rite of passage for many pitchers these days. And many come back fine from it. Would suck to lose him for 18 months, but I’d like his chances to come back.
  20. Willi’s bat is heating up a bit, but would we send down Harold to make room?
  21. Is there an exception if you’re not trying to tank, but are just incredibly inept?
