  1. Now Manning ???
  2. Agee. I think Erod will be fine and comparisons to Zimmerman unfair. He is improving and Zimmerman was declining. I think and hope Erod will be a solid signing.
  3. As one of the original baseball franchises the Tigers should be a top 10 value. I agree winning helps but better player and historical promotion would also help. They have done nothing to promote stars like Whitaker Freehan Lolich Cecil And similar who are at or near HOF level.
  4. I hope Meadows is better than he has shown so far but his worst game was in the rain. I think he could be average? Badoo worries me also defensively anyone else have an early evaluation?
  5. Candy hurting us in the field so far and Badoo not much better. Defense needs to tighten up soon
  6. Man you have to let him try. What's the difference between 80 and 100 pitches. he was cruising effortlessly. Only 23 of those ! Thats' just over thinking the room.
  7. I noticed that also and its one big reason Tampa traded him but it was rotten day for evaluating. Same for candy's error but that cost us 5 runs and essentially the ballgame.
  8. Hope Meadows is moved soon to AA
  9. Hinch loves catchers. Lucky we don't have four. But watch Garneau slam the ball today now that we have doubted him.
  10. Yes I remember that and before the game was "This week in Baseball"..I can still hear the music...
  11. me too but it was "The Game of the WEEK "and in black and white ! If your blacked out just turn on the radio it's great for baseball !!!
  12. Didn't we get Elvis for J-up ?
  13. I think this is the third game of the year. We have a good team that will contend all season. And one of the better managers. I'm staying all in.
  14. Just hit him and be dine with it.
  15. That trend reverses today with Mighty Skubal and his K machine.
  16. " It's a wonderful day in the neighborhood" 😀
  17. Ya but I butchered Kreidler so does that help ?
  18. Kreisler will be our starting second baseman by seasons end. Way better than Isaac. 🤞
  19. This trade matched the GM's preferences. Al prefers power and the Rays OBP and draft pick accumulation. If Meadows can hold his own in the field this is a great move for Detroit. Left handed power is valuable even as a DH which is where he will eventually play. As for Issac I always wondered why someone with such a good understanding of the strike zone never hit better than he did. It seems that he was always thinking walk first. Like he could recognize pitches out of the zone but could not recognize pitches to hit. The best part is we are adding to win now ! Thank goodness for that !
  20. On the surface it looks like a steal but wait it's..oh nooo..Tampa Bay and they will probably get the most out of Isaac and make a good draft pick. Having said that knowing Hinch signed off I feel better. Not sure Meadows will handle Left field in Comerica real well but his power and clutch hitting is solid. Best of all we are adding to win! Could this be our 1984 version of the Willie Hernandez trade also made at the close of spring training in 1984 ?
  21. I think your right Willie may be the biggest benefactor to Riley’s and Hills injury. He’s probably on the team. If he hits who knows. Just hope Riley Greene isn’t channeling Walt Dropo.
  22. Bummer. And Hill is broken AGAIN so we can't even give him a long look. I guess we will find out for sure how much game Victor Reyes has. I actually am fairly..kind of..sorta..optimistic about Victor "hit like VMART - Run like Rickey" Reyes.
  23. Come on Detroit reporters get the news.
  24. Buck Martinez never shuts up. Makes me yearn for jack Morris.
  25. How is Greenes arm rated ? Better for center or right ? It seems our outfield starters cumulatively might have the worst arms in Baseball ? Maybe Philly worst ? Possible ?
