The 60s and 80s Tigers had cores which we will always associate with those teams. The 2006-2013 era had some great players and it was fun, but when I think back on it, I think of players cycling in and out. It's a different kind of memory. Cabrera is the one that stayed the longest. Verlander had a great run, but then he was traded to the Astros where he had arguably more success which makes it harder to claim him as a Tiger. Same thing with Scherzer.

yeah, it's not not good for fans. When I look back even to the 70s and 80s after free agency started, I think of star players staying with the same team. I associated Brett with the Royals, Schmidt with the Phillies, Aaron with the Braves, etc. That doesn't happen so much now.

They had some players worthy of the top 15 like Verlander and Scherzer but they didn't play in Detroit long enough. I wonder if other franchises have the same thing happening since star players move around more than they used to.

9-6 over 15

One of the great things about Dickerson is that you can listen to him and know what's happening in the game while doing something else. That is one of the signs of a great announcer.

I have no idea how to synchronize the radio with the TV. I no longer have the patience to sit and watch 3 1/2 games anyway. I go back and forth between radio and TV while surfing the internet.

You can ALWAYS bitch about TV announcers here.

Trump is a p**** too - hiding behind his money and lawyers his whole life.

All they need is a 16-3 blow out today and their average jumps to 3. Get it done! What the chart does show is that it's very hard to have a decent record when you average fewer than 3 runs per game.

I don't support any organization. I support the principle. This is also how I feel about the Democratic Party.

So, the Tigers now have two outfielders on their roster.

The Tigers are 8-6 since May 13.
-
So, it's the same as it always was?

This was interesting. One thing I noticed was how the list dramatically changed with each new generation, but has stayed the same since 1990 other than Cabrera. The Cabrera era had other great players, but they didn't stay in Detroit long enough to accumulate WAR.

Right, I would NOT want the current "leaders" to re-write the constitution.
-
Re-writing the constitution probably would require an overthrow, but I think the opening post was making a philosphical argument rather than advocating a coup. I think the point is that the country has changed so much that parts of the constitution may not be as relevant today as they were 235 years ago.

Be careful what you wish for with Schoop. I wouldn't be so quick to drop the best defensive 2B statistically so far this year. With a young developing staff, you want to have strong defense up the middle. And it's not like we can be confident that the replacement will hit any better.

UI is living in the 1990s. He already lost the saber debate. He just doesn't know it.

Baez is the new Justin Upton.

Champ Summers! Perfect baseball name and came out of nowhere to be an outstanding platoon player for a couple of seasons. Who didn't love the Summers/Wockenfuss platoon?

I'm going back to the baseball forum.

I knew who you meant. I am closer to the Barney Fife era than the Barney the Dinosaur era. I remember everyone used to make fun of Barney the Dinosaur because he was "too nice" like that was a bad thing.

Or maybe

Pfife thought you meant:
