  1. I also don’t think they’ll start the clock on Malloy, unless he’s a starter. Makes sense for to let him get the defensive reps in the OF at Toledo.
  2. Tigers Acquire LHP Blake Dickerson From Padres for $500K in International Draft money. He was their 12th round pick in 2023, but signed for 4th round money to pass on his commitment to Virginia Tech. BA had him as the Padres #22 prospect. He didn’t pitch for them last year—his debut will be this season.
  3. I don’t see the player talent to make that viable. I think two teams is more likely. I hate the idea of Oakland getting another team, if they depart for Vegas. If I’m picking two, I’d like to see some combination of Nashville, Portland, Salt Lake City or Montreal (for sentimental reasons).
  4. Salt Lake City rendered these photos of their proposed stadium in the hope of securing an expansion team.
  5. I like Vierling there, as an interim until Jung comes up. I would hate to sign a declining veteran to play 3B and block our 1st round pick who hit very well last season.
  6. I’m not worried about 3B for this season. We have 3 or 4 guys who can hold it down until Jung is ready. I like the idea of Chapman on a one-year, but it’s not likely to happen. We certainly have the budget to overpay for a season, but doubt he will settle for that.
  7. I’m guess I’m silly, because it was my first thought.
  8. Did they say who is pairing with Dan on the radio? I hope Dirks is in the mix again.
  9. I like the Astros City Connect, but agree that most are lacking.
  10. I think it was a roster crunch issue with LA—they had to remove him from the 40-man. If I had to guess, he was probably in the Eduardo trade, and when that fell apart, the Dodgers just moved him for enough cash that their players didn’t have to pay for soda the rest of the season.
  11. Got the bat flip down. Hope he gets to use it often next season.
  12. His partner is unlistenable (Roger?). Constant flubs—he reminds me of Chris Farley’s talk show host on SNL. It’s funny that all these shows have in common a weak link that is hard to get past.
  13. Blake Snell, Matt Chapman and Cody Bellinger still unsigned. This is where I miss Mike Ilitch (though he’d give each a 7-year contract).
  14. I wish Cody and Evan Petzold would dump their podcast mates and do one together. It’s been said before, but Tiger podcasts are the worst. Which is a big waste as I would love to get more Tiger content that way. I just took a job in Chicago and will be in the car going back and forth most week and there is only so much 70’s Soft Rock one can take.
  15. That’s a tough spot for any kicker, especially a rookie. And I’m saying that as a Spartan.
  16. F him. Turned out to be a doucher. Now, I do like Lorenzen and hope he gets a shot. After his stint with us, and no-no with the Phils, he looked very ordinary.
  17. F Bill. He was a crappy utility infielder and now he’s some sort of authority?
  18. The Tigers protected Wenceel over Maton. Glad about that, though I suspect Maton gets claimed by someone.
  19. The Big Wheel was signing autographs last weekend
