Hurter? Wouldn’t dream of it.

The scouting report on Rainer is good glove/power. The question has been how well he’ll hit. No reason he would need to move to 3B and way more valuable at SS if he can hit.

Jobe should be on a short leash, but they probably want 5 innings from him with the doubleheader tomorrow.

I don’t think so—he’s the better defender at SS than McGonigle. I think Kevin ends up at 2B.

Damn AI—gonna replace everyone.

That concern is even more reason to demote Malloy over Jung.

I think I’d demote Malloy first.

But he does love him some ex-Tigers

Triple header. Get to call up 3 extra players. Do it, MLB!

Keating and York were a bit bland. But, like Mario, they didn’t cause any unnecessary distractions or make it about them. Very straight forward. I’ll reserve judgment until I see how they replace them. My dreamcast on TV is Dickerson/Dirks in the booth with Petry and York or Kane on the postgame. Benneti has worn thin—kind of understand why the ChiSox ran him out. He’d probably be much better on radio where he couldn’t call attention to distractions outside of the game play, which he likes to do on TV.

Daniella is solid, but Johnny Kane was better. Natalie is eye candy.

And now headed to Coors.

Have to disagree. Long and boring. The Natural kicks it’s ass.

Can someone text me when the 8th inning starts?

I think the takeaway is that Javy is outperforming him (so far).

Agree, it’s a bad look. Ed. Did she turn down a date with you?

Too bad we cut Maeda

The Tigers have five 1st rounders on their roster and two 2nd rounders, if you include Parker who should be on the active squad.

Miggy was on a top-10 trajectory in many career offensive categories until Prince Fielder’s wife demonstrated poor judgment.

Both Malloy and Jung can benefit from more seasoning at Toledo. Easy decision when Vierling and Meadows are ready.

It will come down to the 2026 season—if we’re not in contention at that trade deadline, I suspect we’d move him when all options to resign him have been exhausted. Even with an expiring contract, he’d command more in value than a comp pick would be worth.

Yes. But he’ll still test free agency.
