Reyes is not good...he doesn't walk and doesn't have power. Eventually he'll stop making contact. He might be a good depth piece. But if he plays everyday, he will regress to career norms or worse.

4 man rotation with all of the off days.

Drew Hutchison DFA...Jeimer will be activated before tomorrow's game in Boston.

I pre first-guessed it 3 years ago.

Izaac Pacheco has a .793 OPS(30BB, 50K) with a .358 OBP at Lakeland. He is 19 years old. Is he the best position prospect in the system with Greene promoted?

A pleasant day in an awful season... I will take it.

Is Al doing an interview on the broadcast?

The Tigers have announced the following roster moves: *Claimed C Ali Sanchez off waivers from St. Louis and optioned him to Triple A Toledo *RHP Jacob Barnes cleared waivers and has been granted his release

They are not flushing schoops salary for next year down the toilet. Grossman will be 33 in September. When you get Daz and Meadows back, he should be gone.

They owe Schoop $7.5 million next year. He is safe.

Who won the air hockey game in the locker room? #fun

Not watching myself but I think the casual fan is more apathetic...that's probably worse.

Another rebuild? This rebuild is going to take 10 years.

If you can't develop guys better than Grossman and Schoop, you have to keep playing them because they are vets?

A.J. Hinch on Riley Greene and expectations: “The weight of the world is not on his shoulders. We have a lot of guys that need to pick up the slack...If we expect him to be the sole reason for an offensive turnaround, that’s completely unfair to him.”

Hinch is also a bit of an authoritarian. He doesn't allow his coaches to speak and offer their perspective. And I think he doesn't want Avila or Ilitch speaking much during the season either. I'm guessing that's part of the deal when he signed up. So his mealy mouthed excuses become redundant and tiring. But he's a placid/unemotional guy who looks at data. They've gone through the data and there's nothing to do. Guys have to hit...what he didn't realize is the organization doesn't have any viable replacements for horrific offensive performance. So they have to sit in it.

Tigers have scored 0 or 1 run in 7 of the last 14 games.
