Cabrera could have been better had he even the slightest interest in staying in remotely decent shape.

The ChiSox have a decent nucleus of young players. Their 4 infielders have some potential, when Luis Robert puts forth even minimal effort, he's above average. They aren't the pushovers they were at the beginning of the season

At least you weren't subjected to watch Flaherty suck yet again

Here we go again. The circus is back in town.

I taught at GVSU for 7 years and have had my own practice in the area for about 9 years. Must be why the city has been on the slide the last 15 years.

I would like to see the Tigers go big in the offseason. Maybe go after Kyle Schwarber if he hits the market. He would help the lineup in a ridiculous way and what an upgrade over Colt Keith at DH. Go after Kyle Tucker. They need another big bat in the lineup If it is going to be the last year of Skubal, try to win. Pizza boy can charge an extra $1 or $2 for the crap he calls pizza

Why? Do we need to have the worst 3rd baseman in the league? It's bad enough he gets to DH while being a below average hitter.

It was super nasty today in Grand Rapids.

Why is it that every team in the league has a very good young shortstop or a very solid veteran...except the Tigers?

They aren't going to trade an everyday bat either.

Which will also limit the return they would get

Charlie Morton can cover the loss of Skubal and Mize. Genius move to bring in a 41 year old washed up starter. I mean, was he a better option than Keider Montero?

You don't have to believe anything you don't want to. The report is out there that he gave a non competitive offer. I'm sure the Tigers will offer Skubal something, but it won't be accepted.

If they did that, there would be hell to pay from the fan base. But I can see Harris convincing pizza boy to do that.

Two more HRs allowed today. It's been like 2 weeks since they finished a game without multiple HRs allowed.

It's crazy to think the Tigers actually traded someone to get Montero.

They never disclosed the details but I remember reading it was non competitive. I'm sure there's something on the web about it.

It was called a non-competetive offer.

Like the low ball offer contract extension they offered him last season?

If the Tigers can't score against this guy, they never will. 1.63 WHIP in 104 IP.

There we go. Problems with thos team are all solved Who doesn't want a poor hitting, powerless, and average defensive shortstop?

Not the making the playoffs is going to be a challenge. I can see them losing the division, but to miss the playoffs, the Red Sox, Mariners, and Yankees would all need to pass them. Not saying it won't happen, but that needs the Tigers to suck and the other 3 teams to play well.

They will end up trading him either in the offseason or at the trade deadline. I don't think pizza boy cares what the fans think.

Old Hoss Radbourne, in 1884, was 60-12, 1.38 era, started 73 of the team's 114 games and appeared in relief in 2 more games. He had 73 complete games and 678.2 IP. He had a 19.2 WAR. The team had 2 ties that season, so that's why he had 73 CGs and 72 decisions. The bullpen got a day off with Old Hoss out there.

I think this has the potential to be a 12-11 type game with these 2 guys starting. They both pitched well their last start but the total is 8.5 runs and I would be surprised if at least one of the teams didn't beat that on their own.
