2025 Detroit Tigers General Discussion Thread
Longgone replied to IdahoBert's topic in Detroit Tigers
Sure looks like they’re betting on Colt Keith. -
Thank you! Im on the road and following the game through your comments
-
Gulp what?!
-
It was never mine
-
In the second half of the first preseason game, as a quarterback, you are basically operating in chaos.
-
Sure, fifty years ago.
-
Cows?
-
Sure, he had an historic first half, but what is more likely, he maintains that torrid pace, or reverts to the slump prone, 700ish ops guy hes been for the last five years?
-
Prospects often don’t work out, but neither do trades or free agent signings, and there are few things in sports more volatile than a bullpen piece. Harris prefers to address it with volume. Is he wrong? It worked last year.
-
Like I said, a matter of style. I prefer Harris, but have no issue or problem with the DD’s, Prellers or Dipotos of the baseball world.
-
And that makes it a good trade or good value?
-
It’s a matter of style. I prefer a gm who builds a strong farm and values prospects. I don’t want him to make a trade unless it’s a good value and I don’t want him making a trade that isn’t a good value simply because he feels pressure to fill a perceived hole.
-
Had top stuff before the two elbow surgeries.
-
Nah, I just don’t think he feels desperate. He’ll pull the trigger if he feels it’s a good value, as it should be.
-
He’s more likely to regress to his historical norms than to continue his current streak.
-
That’s what he’s done so far this year. Each of the previous five seasons he’s been sub .800 ops, is prone to slumps and offers little else value wise if he’s not cranking bombs.
-
Or, they didn’t value Suarez as much as you do.
-
I think you are overrating him. He offers power and little else, and I’m not sure how that will play in Comerica. He’s an aging, strikeout prone, maddeningly inconsistent rental.
-
Nor is trading prospects for veterans. Both are a gamble.
-
It was reported to be a stress reaction in his right shoulder
-
They must have really loved Wetwiska
-
Yes
-
They are doing well anyway
-
You read it backwards
-
That 4 and 8 loser?
