  1. A team that has that 5-9 in the lineup does not care about winning today's game. That's fine I just wish they would be more upfront about it.
  2. No need to rush Riley Greene. We will see him next Friday in Seattle.
  3. I think Harris will lean into heavy run prevention with his initial team build. They will invest in pitching and toolsy guys who can defend. Power and slugging will come from internal development. And their system is bad.
  4. They're just not as bad as last year. But expecting linear progress isn't realistic with this offense.
  5. The Tigers have told you that their team is garbage with this offense. They know the team needs a huge overhaul. They don't feel like wasting time trying to make this offense better.
  6. There is no in between contact with Tork. It’s a stretch of homers then pop ups and strikeouts. He just does not get on base enough when there is no slugging.
  7. Hinch was really feeling himself during the 971 interview. He loves all the late game pinch hitting. It’s a bit of a make work but he can show his genius.
  8. Ok the starter is an opener. The second pitcher is a lefty. No Carpenter.
  9. genuinely curious why Kerry Carpenter isn’t in the lineup against a righty.
  10. Tim Robinson is throwing out the first pitch
  11. One thing that the Tigers ML report guys mentioned is Tork's poor contact rate in the minors. Colt Keith seems to make contact so that might be a plus in his favor. Jace Jung seems to be have the same issues with making consistent contact....this should be tracked.
  12. We need the Twins and Cleveland Gardenhires to take off here. The 'division race' is screwing with people's brains. The Tigers are not prioritizing winning individual games with the roster choices they are making. We should track young players and basically ignore the rest. They aren't punishing any of the hitters for poor performance.
  13. He can't be optioned and the catchers at Toledo are not viable. We are stuck.
  14. On Haase, they don't have a viable backup C in Toledo. He's barely a catcher but he's safe.
  15. Malloy is basically Christin Stewart in the field. They already have at least 3 DHs on the 25 man roster.
  16. The Tigers have left Haase and Schoop last through July 4th. Winning today's game is not a priority. Skubal and Olson pitched well; The manfred runner scored in the 10th.
  17. Hinch loves the platoon pinch hitting roster. If your right handed hitters can't get the starter out of the game, it's useless.
  18. scheduled day off per one of the writers. He is in Detroit.
  19. Haase only has 2+ years of service time. Can he be optioned?
