  1. I'm sorry that Harris had to go through the interview during the game with Shep and Jack Morris. Those two are insufferable. Like two kids trying to impress the new teacher.
  2. You're kind of late to this party.
  3. I would check youtube and the tigers site.
  4. He had me at "strike zone"
  5. Chadd just has a title. Scott Plies runs the draft.
  6. I'm eager to see Kirby pitch for Seattle.
  7. Easy guess is that he would be Brian Bluhm's favorite Tiger right now.
  8. Al did the honorable thing last year. They had agreed to terms with Jobe before the draft, not expecting or knowing who would be taken before him.
  9. I need to see Carpenter every day. Those two swings on the double and HR were really sweet, don't see many kids getting around on high cheese like that.
  10. 4-2-5 more than any other, according to The Athletic.
  11. I thought Ron LeFlore was one in a million...
  12. I'm hoping that whomever takes over has a plan and does it right. I think Chris thought that this would be an easy year, but they have a lot of work to do. They need to blow up the scouting department. Chadd and Pleis must go!
  13. The Tigers signed Chi Chi Gonzalez, plus Manning might be close to returning.
  14. I have heard that Jung is a better fielder than his brother. Probably a better all around player.
  15. From Fangraphs... Full Report Prielipp is a lefty with mid-90s heat and a plus-plus upper-80s slider. He was a little wild as a freshman but the arm strength was relatively new, and he became one of the early top-of-the-draft prospects for 2022. He dealt with a couple periods of injury culminating in Tommy John surgery late in May of 2021, which kept him out for the entire '22 season. He threw a bullpen for scouts near the end of the college calendar and then threw again at the Combine, in both instances sitting 92-94 mph (regularly 94 and up to 95 at the Combine) with a more consistently short arm action than he showed before he blew out. It's still a rough, fairly stiff mechanical look, but Prielipp's slider is arguably the best pitch in the whole draft. He comes with more relief risk than most of the other college pitchers who stand a chance to go in the first round, but if his peak pre-surgery velocities come back (he was sitting 97-99 at times), then he'll be a quick-moving back-of-the-bullpen type. https://www.fangraphs.com/prospects/the-board/2022-mlb-draft/summary?sort=-1,1&type=0&pg=0&pageitems=10000000000000
  16. The one thing from all the signings yesterday is not only do they plug up holes in the roster, but every player has good size. The Red Wings are going to be a big team, and soon. Especially when Elmer, Edvinsson and Wallinder are up.
  17. I don't know if Fabbri will come back, he's on his third acl, and will probably go on ltir.
  18. I heard the Tigers were hoping he would be back for the Fall league.
  19. I'm in heaven. Switching between the US open and the mlb combine. Not a bad day off.
  20. I think the biggest issues with the Tigers is that they get burned every time they jump into free agency to fix their problems. I think free agency has been bad in baseball recently, with many teams losing big.
  21. He was on SF's practice squad, I believe. Also, Penisini had to retire due to injuries to his shoulders.
  22. Also, Wenceel should be considered a 2b now, he hasn't played SS since 2019. This year it has been 22 at 2b, 7 at 3b, and 15 at DH. https://www.milb.com/player/wenceel-perez-672761?stats=career-r-fielding-minors&year=2022
