  1. Concussion and broken arm..Meadows snakebit career continues:
  2. Greene, Tork, Keith, and McGonigle have zero home runs 13 games in...the Tigers are still stuck on 7 total over the first 13 games. You have to figure that will revert to a mean. Still not sure on defense or a bullpen that walks too many guys and doesn't miss bats.
  3. I can’t believe that this power outage will continue for much longer.
  4. Wenceel not in the Toledo lineup tonight.
  5. Would guess Wenceel gets the call with Parker in the concussion protocol.
  6. It was always possible that running most of the same offense back might not lead to improvement.
  7. dead last in homers...if you can't hit singles, you have to hit it out.
  8. some bad luck with batted balls and then issues with guys who can't make contact.
  9. Play some defense, hit homeruns..easy.
  10. Tork and Greene have be mid or above average..We can safely say they aren't going to rise above their level...they're not going to develop better contact skills or get their agility back.
  11. This season is about Riley and Tork establishing if they are part of the offensive core or if they are just guys. It's early.
  12. They are last in the AL in homers and 8th in slugging..hopefuly that reverts to some norms.
  13. They haven't faced a lefty starter all year...right now he's giving Vierling, Baez, etc at-bats until that picks up.
  14. April 13th is their next off day.
  15. They got 4 good starts and probably deserve to be 3-3. I dont' have much patience for 'core' hitters who can't consistently produce. We are out of the development phase and these guys are probably not going to get much better. We need them to settle into their norms...and quick.
  16. Last year's collapse has made circumspect about getting too high or low after game 5. I'm more worried about health and the macro stuff.
  17. -Mize was very good(best start in his career)? -Offense still too spotty; needs some random power..could be a Tork even year regression -Bullpen doesn't have a great flamethrower(they don't seem to have much in the org, don't emphasize it)...but last night was just a cluster of dumb stuff happening at once.
  18. He doesn't walk and strikes out a lot, it doesn't make sense in the early innings. I think Hinch is trying to setup match ups in the middle of the game. But you still need to get on base early.
  19. Tigers traded Dylan Smith to the Giants for Cash Considerations.
  20. Tork said that they did not act in time to get a challenge. It's like 6-8 seconds and then the ump moves on. They don't let you check with the dugout. They just have to do it and deal with the consequences. Hinch has not put a limitation on anyone.
  21. The guy who replaced him is even more fringy.
  22. Wow they are pushing him into a high 80 pitch count in the first game...kind of weird with a day off tomorrow.
  23. If Greene, Tork, and Carpenter get going, they can carry a few of them. McKinstry isn't going to repeat last year...I think he is on borrowed time; They aren't facing a LH starter the entire trip so Vierling is going to get some run.
  24. Is Carpenter Riley Greene with better pr?
