  1. I think you have to go back to Game 3 against the Orioles in 2014 to find me as angry about a Tigers game as I am now.
  2. Kinetrax or similar technologies make it easier to learn how to face off against certain pitch shapes.
  3. If you have an organization that relies on teamwork and personalities maximizing performance, the slightest bit of distrust could permeate. I also suspect 6 all star bids also may have added some ego to the mix that wasn't there. Final theory: the league caught up to some of the pitch design things that Fetter and Co. had been doing.
  4. Part of me wonders what affect that Athletic report has had on this collapse. I know Menzin was the only baseball ops person, but maybe there was some additional fallout and strife behind the scenes after that article that has affected enough things on the periphery to add to the spiral.
  5. The option window is the first five days after the World Series. He isn't going to get the chance to make that evaluation.
  6. Been largely out of pocket since Wednesday morning... Not a bad time to be.
  7. I suspect Heuer was injured but wasn't logged in the Toledo transactions as several transactions haven't been. Can't outright an injured player, so released it is. Not sure they turn around and pick him back up, since free agency looks anyways.
  8. Why are they interviewing that couple in a 1-0 game with the division on the line?
  9. Championship Leverage Index of this game is 1.41. There have been a few games this year (such as the Toronto series in July) that are higher. Several of the late season games last year were higher as well. Trivia! What year prior to 2024 do you have to go back to in order to find a game with a higher Championship Leverage Index?
  10. You can trust minor league heigths now with the robozone https://blogs.fangraphs.com/lets-get-small-hundreds-of-minor-leaguers-have-shrunk/
  11. Dove into the comments. Fun stuff
  12. If we go 1-2 in the series, that seems like an in-between?
  13. Per transaction logs, Hurter up and Hanifee down.
  14. Weird that his name was hyperlinked in my post when I just copied and pasted after I googled how to spell his name... anyways...
  15. If their instinct is to yank access after a negative story, it makes you wonder what else doesn't get out. Sunlight is the best disinfectant.
  16. The fact that he was rotating his shoulder to test something out... We'll see. Hopefully it's minor.
  17. Looks like shoulder to me.
  18. In which case a win would not clinch because the season series is up in the air. I agree that is the median scenario. Both Tigers and Guardians win 2 of 3 and split the first two.
  19. The Tigers very likely clinch before this happens, but they could have a magic number of 3 with Cleveland before the third game of the series and clinch with a win. They would have had to win the first two games of the series and not have clinched already. This is because a sweep in the series next week clinches the tiebreaker.
  20. One of the 9-10 games I am blacked out for...
  21. The Marlins do.
