  1. Ryan O'Hearn makes $14 million a year. Verlander makes $13 million. What was the better FA signing? They could have just signed Chris Paddack if they needed a pitcher to give up 6 to 8 runs a start and saved some money to put towards a bat.
  2. Chris Paddack is at it again. 4 IP, 8 hits, 8 ER, 2 HRs. Hard to blame him...People keep giving him money to pitch
  3. It looked like he was throwing batting practice out there last night. I wasn't a fan of the signing but he looked even worse than I thought he would. He'll get at least 4 more starts and then he'll get "injured" and placed on the IL just to save face for him.
  4. Max Clark enters the conversation. He "missed" 2 flyballs in a spring training game. It was awful but luckily just spring training.
  5. Paul Skenes wasn't bad at all in his debut. You didn't watch the game. He gave up a bloop single, a swinging bunt single and two hits that were routine flyballs/popups that the center fielder misplayed like a little leaguer. To compare the Skenes outing with the trash that Verlander put out there is a crime against humanity.
  6. How many more Chris Paddack/Charlie Morton types of starts are they going to permit Verlander to have before he comes up with some type of "injury" to save face? Nostalgia doesn't get outs. But I was told it was an amazing FA signing.
  7. I don't understand why they just don't use the robo ump for every pitch Why does every league need to have a coach's/player's challenge type of thingy. Just set up sensors in the plate and hook the umpire up with a buzzer. Jose Altuve and the cheating Astros already gave the proof of concept that the buzzer stuff can work in real time
  8. Jefferies had one of the greatest minor league seasons ever in 1987. He was 19 in AA and just destroyed the league. .367 avg, 1.021 OPS
  9. Brad Ausmus
  10. So the options are station to station or do dumbass stuff? How about sound base running fundamentals? I prefer them to not do dumbass things like get thrown out at 3rd to end the inning. That is the absolute dumbest thing to do on the basepaths.
  11. He went deep his first at bat tonight
  12. I remember McKinstry getting thrown out at 3rd to make the final out a few times last year. He looked like a little leaguer out there. The saying "you never want to make the first or third out at third" exists for a reason.
  13. Last night Chase Deleuter went 3-5 with 2 HRs. Strasburg struck out 14 in his debut. Trevor Story hit 2 HRs in his debut. It's a pretty short list.
  14. Get use to even less luxury in Detroit.
  15. I thought Miguel Andujar would have been a nice outfield piece at a nice affordable price but instead they spent a lot more on a 5th starter.
  16. Anyone know why mlb decided it was a good idea to go up against the sweet 16 for opening day against NCAA basketball? Especially on Friday...mlb have all night games.
  17. Chase Delauter had a nice mlb debut too. 3-5 with 2 home runs
  18. In other games, Mike Trout with a 5.000 OPS so far this season.
  19. Why? It was an awful throw. He had him by a step and a half if he doesn't do his bull**** Javy lackadaisacal typical throw.
  20. Skubal is a big boy. Dang. He makes Torkelson look tiny.
  21. Keith and Greene looked pathetic in those at bats
  22. Alex Cobb didn't get a sweetheart contract from some other GM?
  23. Why do they even have a challenge system. Just have the system make the call on every pitch. Angel Hernandez would have looked like a legit ump.
  24. Except when he got 37% in the 1998 Gubernatorial election...and the opponent got 62%.
