  1. I agree and they are running out of good free agent options. A big trade might be the only way to make it a good off-season.
  2. Reading the full tweet, he's out to get unversities for sympathizing with them. The real reason he hates universities is probably becaue he was a ****ty student who couldn't read or write beyond grade school level and they didn't accept his bull****.
  3. He's definitely worth a one year deal. I pretty much never complain about one-year deals.
  4. I think he would have been an excellent pickup. Not sure I like the one and one contract given that he'll miss a chunk of this season though. I was hoping for a straight two-year deal.
  5. True, if he throws the same pitch over and over, then nothing is changing. I Don't even thnk Petriello was being serious when he tweeted that. It was a reference to DiMaggio
  6. He sounds like another Fernando Rodney which could be good or bad. The Tigers organization is good place for pitchers like that.
  7. Tommy Kahnle once threw 56 consecutive change-ups.
  8. One could argue that they are all children.
  9. This would be hugely unpopular, another huge over reach https://idahocapitalsun.com/2025/01/27/idaho-house-calls-on-u-s-supreme-court-to-reverse-same-sex-marriage-ruling/ I'm almost rooting for over reach now. It's the only way out of it. During the summer, there was a talk at my school given by an economist and author who had written a book about presidential eras based mostly on economic policy. He said this era started with Reagan and has largely been very conservative especially due to deregulation. He said that every such era ends at some sort of cross roads and ends with the current party getting crushed. He was very sure that Trump was going to win the election in 2024 and also very sure that he'd over reach (mostly in respect to economic policy) and that the Republicans would get crushed in 2028. This of course should be taken with a big grain of salt and I don't expect anyone to agree with it, but it was interesting at the time.
  10. It seems like he has signed 3 or 4 times this winter!
  11. Whether it's real or not, people who don't live in Detroit generally don't have a good view of it. They aren't the only city like that, but it's probably not a good selling point in negotiations.
  12. No way anybody should accept any offer from Trump or anyone connected to him.
  13. Some people are easily snowed.
  14. Yup, Trump's desire to put on a show could be his downfall. They could do it more quietly and effectively, but that wouldn't be fun. The new step for libs will be endless lawsuits in an effort to counter the endless chaos.
  15. I have seen clips of him being "charming" in private. I have a very sensitive BS meter, but it comes off as totally phoney. He is 100% douchebag.
  16. I don't want Grichuk. He seems like the kind of guy that will drop off the cliff in Comerica given his age. If they don't get Bregman, my next target would be Kim. I am all for additional pitching too.
  17. Reaction to overreach is our best way out this The deep red states are hopeless, but there are plenty of states that will turn blue in the mid-terms if things get ugly.
  18. We were warned about Kinsler's home/road splits and that he wouldn't hit in Comerica.
  19. The only interesting thing Trump could do is resign. But I'll shutup and let you guys enjoy your thread.
  20. If their life is going to suck, then everyone else needs to suffer too.
  21. I thought federal employees were not allowed to work remotely?
  22. I think the Tigers have shown that they can improve their pitching without giving out long-term contracts. So, if I have to choose between the two, I'd rather they spend big on a position player.
  23. The part about Bregman not getting any decent offers at all.
  24. The Tigers have not been held back by regrettable contracts. They have been held back by lack of player development and that seems to be changing fast.
  25. Possibly...Or he could be the next Matt Manning.
