  1. Momentum does not last forever. It can start or end at any time.
  2. FanGraphs still has the Tigers at 80% probability to make the playoffs!
  3. Now, It's Rob's job to turn the Tigers around. It's not over until Biff starts the game thread.
  4. I hope so too, because they'll be a lot less entertaining next year without him.
  5. Up until the last month or so, I think the Tigers have performed above their talent level during Hinch's tenure. It's been an awful stretch, but I think firing him would be a knee jerk reaction and a mistake.
  6. Who do you want them to get that's better?
  7. Nothing is ever 0%! I said near 0. 🙂
  8. I don't know exactly how it should be done, but I agree the challenges are dumb. If terrible calls are made, then just fix it. No need to add some faux strategic challenge.
  9. I will spend zero seconds reviewing tonight's game!
  10. I think that better change soon or they are going to feel it in ticket sales. This season could lose them a bunch of casual fans.
  11. I don't get nearly as emotional about games as I did even a few years ago, but tonight's game has been demoralizing.
  12. They are tied for first place over 157 games. They should certainly contend next year. They should be adding major league talent, not subtracting their best player.
  13. It's been both.
  14. I think trading Skubal would mean throwing away the season. Any team picking up Skubal for one year is going to be all in, so they won't be giving the Tigers major league players. It would be a package of prospects.
  15. Skubal throws a Porcello. 😒
  16. I think there is a near zero chance of that happening.
  17. Skubal was too amped tonight. You could see it even early in the game. Still might be a good result, but hasn't been himself tonight.
  18. Nice play by Sweeney. I was worried about that one.
  19. I didnt watch any spring training games.
  20. It's accurate.
  21. I hope they don't find a way to screw it up. The challenge system they have for other plays is terrible, way too slow. I understand that the ball strike challenges have gone pretty smoothly in the miniors. I would have preferred robo umps the whole game.
  22. I'm thinking more about sequencing or identifying player tendencies. If they are using tech to learn player tendencies and they pitch that way too predictably, I can see where the opposition might catch up to that by changing their tendencies.
  23. The last one makes a lot of sense.
  24. Perhaps, it was an indication that the organization does not treat people well in general and that report brought things to light and got people talking. I am not saying I think that's true. The easiest safest explanation for a slump is random variation. I'm just throwing out the possibility that's is something more.
  25. Actually I can...
