    Alternatively, maybe the Tigers tender Candy, then hire a new GM who then hires new people to help players like Candy revert to decent prodcution. Maybe Dana Brown, for instance, can bring some Braves folks into the Tigers org.

    If they manage to hire someone even decent, I wouldn't underestimate their ability to find some guys with the assets they have It's hard to see at this moment, but let's see who they hire and what they do

    To paraphrase R. Lee Ermey... Parker is born again hard

    Good games for Riley and Eddie... That's about as good as we can ask
  5. mtutiger
    Eddie looking like the guy who got the big contract so far...

    I do like the fact that he works a pretty good AB, but this is right. The odds are that he's Boesch or Shelton, but who doesn't love an underdog? Especially with this team that otherwise doesn't score or hit home runs with any regularity?

    To that end, none of this seems particularly surprising. People will be enraged, as they should, but Al is now gone. The question is what, if anything, they (and presumably whoever they hire to replace Al) do to fix it.

    Whether it's luck or not, it's crazy that the Tigers have gotten so few wins off of the results they have had pitching wise, particularly in this latest stretch.

    I dont want to take anything away from Cy Sandoval, but Good Lord this offense blows

    Skubal did once I believe

    Thread... seems like it all worked out and he's welcomed back
  12. mtutiger
    He wasn't pitching much recently, which was maybe a tell lol

    Right. Just seems like there's very little daylight between thinking "AJ is the best thing that has happened to the Tigers" and "AJ Hinch is trash".... the reality is that he's a good baseball man who has had success in this league and has a ring, the Tigers are lucky to have him under the circumstances, but that he's also not perfect and has likely made some mistakes as well. Like a lot of subjects around the Tigers, it's just one that generally doesn't have room for nuance.

    I like AJ Hinch, believe that we are lucky to have him given the circumstances and agree with those that believe he isn't remotely the biggest problem with the club right now. But I don't believe that he's fully clean of the issues going on with the club either.... Coolbaugh is a good place to start, as one imagines he has sway over who is and isn't on his coaching staff.

    The official line is achilles... not into conspiracies, so gonna go with until known otherwise

    Regular season game

    People have joked many times about the likelihood of seeing Parker before Austin in a Tigers uniform. Not happening, but at this rate, it may end up being too close for comfort lol

    Brant Hurter has had quite a rise...

    Chas is referring to Pipeline's Overall Top 100 list.... Flores is unranked on that list.

    Depends on the list - he's unnumbered on Pipeline, but did crack BA's list.
  23. mtutiger
    I probably have a different view of it, but he is gone now and the organization can't change anything he did or the fact that they held on for too long. But the fact that he is gone engenders more hope than despair, even though the next year or two might come with frustrations.
  24. mtutiger
    Is it surprising though? There have been countless conversations about their lack of depth here. I don't know that Avila's firing broke new ground.
  25. mtutiger
    Correct. Maybe you add Colt Keith or Izaac Pacheco to the list, although it's may not be smart to deal either of them either long term. I do think Chas is a little harsh on Flores.... he doesn't show up on Pipeline, but does appear on other lists IIRC
