  1. They'll get a hard throwing right-hander with control problems. He used to be top 50, but hasn't been able to put it together above A ball. Maybe Fetter can figure something out. They'll also get a toolsy 19 year old shortstop who has five walks in 500 plate appearances.
  2. It's not, but it wasn't his policies which caused inflation either.
  3. I'd rather they left Schoop at second and moved Castro to first. The only good thing about Schoop is his second base defense.
  4. He was that kid that stayed back three times and was still in high school when he was 20. He had a full beard as a Junior and scared the crap out of everybody.
  5. Not a lot longer if you are counting great years. Neither Cabrera nor Pujols has been great for a long time.
  6. If they had done that all year, they would be playing .500 ball (as their pitching has been average for the year).
  7. I got excited when I saw Soto trending on Twitter...but it was the wrong Soto.
  8. Bourjos was an example of a 10th round pick who had some success.
  9. I think in probabilities rather than possibilities.
  10. He is not going to prison either way.
  11. I thought he was running again to continue grifting his hapless supporters and to get revenge on his political opponents.
  12. Gates Brown
  13. Maybe trade Lange for a hitting equivalent of Lange. I am not sure what that would be.
  14. I remember Smith as being worse than Avila because his drafts were awful and most of his trades seemed pointless.
  15. Wouldn't anybody after the first two selections who becomes a utilty player in the majors be considered a success?
  16. I have never seen any of these guys play and have only read about them very recently. So, I have no opinion on the draft other than I am glad they didn't sign a bunch of high school pitchers
  17. Don't forget Payton.
  18. Another fat infielder. They really want to find a replacement for Paredes.
  19. Smith only got 7 years. They had a series of 1-2 year guys before that.
  20. His father had some pretty bad GMs before hiring Dombrowski. It took him 11 years to figure it out.
  21. The new Kirk Gibson. https://www.freep.com/story/sports/columnists/jeff-seidel/2022/07/18/detroit-tigers-2022-mlb-draft-jace-jung-peyton-graham/10081396002/?gnt-cfr=1
  22. Yes, his socks are high in most of his photos. That means he respects the game.
  23. "too many voices in his ears". That sounds serious.
  24. He gives 110% and gets his uniform dirty every game.
