  1. ? He’s probably a top-25 pitcher in the MLB. He’s not a mid-back of rotation guy for almost any team. I think you’re selling him short.
  2. I think we’ve been pretty solid in bullpen games this season. Wentz going 3 innings probably doesn’t help the cause tomorrow.
  3. Why? What’s the rush? He doesn’t strike me as the type to let it affect his play this season.
  4. Carpenter looks lost. He’s swinging from a knee. Hope it’s a just a slump.
  5. I can think of something worse.
  6. So, this is the game we’re not trying to win this weekend?
  7. Why? He was one of our better hitters this season. For all of the consternation that everyone seemed to have at the beginning of the season, my AAT was pretty good. Not HOF good, but he had some key hits playing part time. I’m glad he was on the team.
  8. He meant Gelof and two others for Skubal. I’d rather send Tarik, if we think it makes sense to trade him, to LA for the booty that was supposed to come our way for ERod. Skubal would command even more. Another bold move would be to go after Soto or Tatis Jr from the Padres. We need a young, impactful hitter in this lineup to help elevate everyone else.
  9. Yes—they got slammed by the AL East. That’s the bar now—what will it take to be competitive with them?
  10. This. All Will be forgotten, just like it was with Ortiz. I’ll wager with anyone that Miggy is first ballot.
  11. The only reason to add a player to the 40 man is if you think another team will select them and keep them in their ML roster all season. Very little risk of that happening with either Cruz or Workman. And if another team decides to do that, you let them.
  12. I’ll bet they time it to his HOF induction year, which I believe will be 2028.
  13. You’re not including guys in our minors that need to be put on the 40 man roster or risk being exposed in the Rule 5 draft.
  14. Won’t it ultimately come down to whether the Tigers want to use a 40-man roster spot on him? Not sure how many have graduated to require a spot on the 40-man, though we have a handful of players I’d be willing to discard before Akil.
  15. Totally agree. I’m just glad I don’t have to make a choice.
  16. Yes, we did both of those games and it was a bit of a madhouse.
  17. Don’t forget the speed. Should be a 20/20 guy with regularity, who also plays a very good CF.
  18. I suspect Baddoo will go the way of Victor Reyes.
  19. I’m going with my son. I saw Miggy’s 3,000th hit, his last HR (so far) and looking forward to his last game.
  20. Are all our teams in the minors done now? Time to close this thread? If so, Kudo’s and other chocolatety-covered granola treats to LongLiveMaroth for his daily commitment in providing summaries for all of our minor league games this past season. Sir, you are a scholar and a gentleman!
  21. I thought he was the one we signed.
  22. I like how peaceful he’s been the last 7 years.
  23. Wonder what the Tigers are going to get him? (Besides the $35M they are paying him this year)
