Sorry my comment got you triggered. Maybe I can be like you and be an Ilitch and Harris jock hugger. Enjoy "next year we'll get 'em" again. And in the meantime, you can continue to post about the fictional and amazing potential 2029 lineup that will dominate the AL.

No thank you. Playoffs and world series chances don't mean anything when you can get prospects and convince the fans they are all going to be future hall of famers and the team is going to be in contention to win it all in 2031.

Hell of a debut for Joshua Baez. First 3 abs, 3 HRS.

Manfred gets a lot of crap from people, especially how he overlooked the Astros cheating, but the pitch clock will be his positive legacy.

4.5 out going against the ChiSox ace countered by a bullpen day. 39 games left and 5 back in the loss column. Would be nice if the Tigers had a 2x Cy Young winner to take the ball tomorrow.

Victor Martinez? It was exciting watching him leg out a single to shallow left field.

Urquidy was going to get the majority of the innings for the Sox. That's pretty much a good matchup for any team. Saturday, Kay is a quality starter and on Sunday, Burke is emerging as a legit ace.

This was the game I thought was going to be the most favorable pitching matchup. Melton better be on his game tomorrow, because Sunday is a really bad pitching matchup for Detroit.

Must win going into the series with the ChiSox. Messick has been a Cy Young worthy candidate all season.

He was the #4 prospect in the organization in 2024. Let's replace it with Jace Jung who was #1 in 2023. Or Wilmer Flores, who was #2? Is that better?

Everyone loves prospects until they are called up and turn into Justin Henry Malloy.

Also, he won't win the AL ROY, McGonigle deserves it, but Parker Messick is having a great season. I think pitchers get punished in ROY awards. Maybe they need a pitcher ROY award. Even if McGonigle was still in the minors they would give it to Murikami.

I think they really are pushing Ohtani as the greatest player of all time and they need him to get closer to as many MVPs as Bonds has. And he's -130 on the betting sites and PCA is +100. Not that betting sites/companies have any say in what happens in sports these days.

Pete Crow Armstrong should win the NL MVP but they will give it to Ohtani.

Carlos Guillen had an unathletic physique. He was like a skinnier version of Miguel Cabrera. I don't think either of them worked very hard on staying in good shape. He pulled a hamstring once going to dinner.
