I wonder how many teams will ultimately decide to sell? The Tigers showed last season that anything is possible, even with the most remote odds. I really don’t see the AL Central pulling the plug, save for the White Sox. Would be ironic if the Tigers, buyers for the first time in 10 years, are disadvantaged by their performance in ‘24. The fewer the sellers, the more the buyers (potentially), which will drive up prices for the fewer players available.

Remind me how Enns was available as a minor league free agent?

I don’t want to block Lee, but I’d rather get a proven veteran. Playoff experience a plus.

I wasn’t thinking of a Ibanez-type, but a legit 4th OF/DH type that could play full-time, if necessary. Marcell Ozuna?

Mize has outpitched Flaherty, who I believe is our 4th SP (if Olsen is healthy). And I do see the Tigers upgrading from Jones, if not cost-prohibitive. Getting a proven RH outfielder would be a nice hedge for injuries and complement to our LH hitters. Bullpen is going to be the focus, though.

I thought that was the game where Pete Rose collided into Fosse, causing a neck injury?

Hanifee sucks

So many parallels to ‘84 for me.

First time I really paid attention to baseball closely. 10 years old and nothing was more important to me than the pre-game introductions. Hooked ever since.

Could have been 2nd and 3rd. Real poor decision

Did she listen to you, or is it just like here? 😬

If Skubal starts, will be first time since 1966 they will have 4 starters

I would also assume that a reliever that came into the game, but didn’t make it past the 5th inning, might be ineligible?

I’m surprised they let him take his start last night. Won’t be available for another 4 days.

Can you imagine if we had signed him over Cobb?

Seems random, or are they well known MAGA dudes?

What is TMZ saying?

I’d like to see Tarik get to 20 wins. Was always the benchmark for an ace when I was growing up in the 70’s. Now it’s rarified air.

I never would have thought we’d have this type of lead in our division.

That pod can go away completely. Petzold was such a lapdog and his incessant reciting of numbers was obnoxious and comical.

A healthy Olsen and Flaherty getting back to what he’s capable of will help. If we were deeper in the rotation, I’d like to see Jack as our closer. He would flourish pitching 1-2 innings and seems like he’s got the right disposition to be a closer.

You can also trade and demote a few guys—send Kreidler and Workman to Erie.

F Wyatt Langford. These two will be the worth the wait

With all four minor league teams also winning, we achieved Helter Skelter for the 11th time this season.
