  1. I think it would be really cool, and at the same time a statement of sorts, if the Tigers adopted the uniforms they’re wearing today as their ‘City Connect’ uniforms.
  2. Riley won’t be a real Tiger until he pitches an inning in relief.
  3. A team player.
  4. And the rebuild is over…😉
  5. Almost time for ping pong guys!
  6. Al’s hoping the Riley Greene call up will be a distraction for the fans for a few days. He’s running out of smoke and mirrors.
  7. But do they have the moxie?
  8. Allowing Skubal to throw 100 pitches tonight was idiotic. In hindsight, hiring Hinch was a mistake. I wasn’t in favor of hiring him because he enabled cheating in Houston. He didn’t have the guts to stand up to what he clearly knew was wrong. He’s the same guy here. He’s just along for the ride at this point. Is this worse than 2003? Absolutely, not even close.
  9. That has already crossed my mind as well. There is a culture about this team/organization that I really don’t like. The message, at least to this point is, failure is acceptable.
  10. For the sake of common sense, I hope Hinch pulls Skubal at around 60-70 pitches. There is no reason to waste this kids arm on this garbage game.
  11. I love me some Mexicans.
  12. Ausmus is currently a bench coach under Mark Kotsay in Oakland.
  13. Que Useful Idiot. He may be reading the right tea leaves.
  14. Where’s the ping pong table?
  15. The silver lining in the decline…. The Vanguard funds we hold are paying distributions (dividends) today for the second quarter. We reinvest the $ back into the funds. The pullback has created a better buy point.
  16. This organization, through doing nothing, has embraced failure. It’s just another day at the old ping pong table.
  17. IMHO, I believe the team needs a different manager. Hinch was passive in Houston while the team cheated in front of him and he doesn’t seem to be much different now.
  18. This team needs a Billy Martin postgame speech. That would take place after he flips the postgame meal table and kicks the food against all the lockers in the room. Then comes the speech. The speech would consists of a few select words that would be repeated over and over and over. I’ll bet this team couldn’t survive a Billy Martin postgame demonstration and speech. They’d all run to the IL and request a trip to Toledo. Kind of tells you where this team is right now. They feel good about things and they have the ping pong tournament going on and all the while, they totally suck at what they’re getting paid to do, top to bottom with a very few exceptions. I bet Hinch picks their balls up when they hit the floor.
  19. Tell us how you really feel MCS. Stop sugar coating stuff.
  20. Actually, I did. Maybe not the answer you wanted.
  21. This was my comment yesterday…. “Generally speaking, perhaps not. I don’t know if Walker has ever outright denied the existence of the son or not. I doubt it to behonest. If he has, that would be the deal breaker for me.” Additionally, based on what has been posted here recently regarding Walker’s past, I don’t condone that level of negligence or irresponsibility. Yes, it is hypocrisy in the purist form. Any other questions?
  22. “…creating four separate childless homes.” Interesting.
  23. I know very little about Walker. Your point about “four such homes” is news to me.
  24. I totally agree and said as much yesterday. He has done everything possible to prove himself a failure at his job and is more secure than most of his peers. Very frustrating as a fan.
