I've had 5 shots, had covid after the 4th one. It was pretty mild, despite a potentially devastating underlying condition. The vaccine played a role in that (It also, somewhat ironically played a role in me getting it. My brother's symptoms were so mild, likely due to the vaccine, that we had no clue he may be positive when I visted him.) The parenthetical paradox aside, the vaccine helped everybody get back to normalish, and for that it has been invaluable. Those of us with consciouses who stayed home as best as we could needed those shots for some degree of sanity. Yes, I would get the vaccine again, and hindsight only reinforces it. I'll get every booster I'm eligible for ASAP. My doctor agrees. My epidemiologist cousin agrees. If some right wing talking heads don't, well their word is meaningless in this debate.

So the Qatari Government poisoned Grant Wahl, right?

Man, there's a lot of unnecessary $5 words in there.

I was conditioned to hate them. Basically, that was around the beginning of my time being old enough to follow the Tigers and my dad turned me against them from the jump.

No, but it does mean she isn't the hero that the lionization this year has suggested.

The fact that Griner is some hero when she has a DV history is icky to me.

Englert has to stick as a Rule 5

No restrictions that I know of on minor league picks. You just have to have room on your AAA reserve list, and pony up $12K to draft them.

Minor league phase, I'm a bit behind, but listening on a slight delay. Tigers first pick was Layne Henderson, reliever in the Astros system. Dane Myers was just popped by the Marlins. Tigers can make three more picks if they choose.

Mason Eglert from the Rangers... The feed isn't working for me.

Tigers have a Top 6 pick.

Heyman gonna Heyman

Only McCosky will get it wrong.

I came in here to get pedantic and see I was pre-empted.

Good question... It derailed Dontrelle Willis back in the day.

Man, Eflin was a guy I thought was worth targeting. Very underrated.

Obviously, Harris was one of a committee in San Francisco, but after signing the following on the rebound: Kevin Gausman Tyler Alexander Drew Smyly (check out his 2020) Trevor Cahill (check out his 2020) Anthony DeSclafani Alex Wood Alex Cobb Jakob Junis He's earned the benefit of the doubt.

That tweet doesn't make sense. There's a year between those pics, but it implies three days.

Reminds me of the time the left-handed throwing guy on the softball team I was captaining who didn't know much about baseball whined about me not playing him at shortstop...

My most played Spotify song of the year, haha

And the joke I made on Twitter the other day... Cabrera's option vests with a Top 10 MVP finish this year. If the two Detroit chapter voters that voted for him for Tigers POY this year get MVP ballots next year, don't rule that out!

Retired players hit free agency as a procedural technicality, and buyouts are baked into the contract guarantee.

I believe he is still owed that. Hell, he could pull a Pujols and make the option vest!

Jackson Jobe was absolutely a reach.
