6 game winning streak looking more like a dead cat bounce lol

Dan was also talking up the big Skubal-Darvish matchup on Wednesday... lol I love Skubal and all, but even if he's on his game, it's hard to imagine things going well for the Tiger bats lol

I'm not done, but getting real close to going radio only for the most part because DD/Jimmie/Utility Color Commentators are enjoyable enough to keep my interest. The product on the field is garbage tho. It may be one of the least entertaining Tiger ballclubs during the course of my life. Increasingly dont care to watch

Lange and Vest. Otherwise. Yeah lol

This far into the rebuild, their best hitter is the backup catcher that Cleveland didn't want lol

Honestly surprised they drew as many fans today as they did. Have tolerated a lot of bad baseball over the years, but I wouldn't pay to watch this crap

Dillon who? /s

Cisnero looks like he's lost weight

Jim and Dan now discussing whether the Tigers will hit over 100 homers this season. Jimmie sounds like he's taking the under lol

Now Jarvy looks injured.... Greeeat

Yeah, DD is better than listening to Dick Bremer lol

You know things are bad when even Shep isn't putting a positive spin on things

It'll be interesting (and ultimately probably depressing) to see what, if anything, they get on return at the deadline. Beggars can't be choosers, but returning someone capable of playing 3B may be as ideal as returning an outfielder at this point

You are 100% correct here... as bad as Candelario has been, tendering him for 2023 may be the best and most pragmatic move in their view. My only point for bringing it up is that, based on his overall play, they would be completely justified in non-tendering him. And as much as we think he's still better than Kody Clemens or Brendon Davis or whoever the Tigers have that is remotely close to hitting the big leagues (pretty much only those two guys; Kreidler being injured sucks), I can't say that if you gave either of those guys 250 ABs that they would be significantly worse than Candy has been this year. I like Candy and he seems like a good dude. And given all the other deficiencies they have on this roster, they badly need him to work out in the short term. But they would be completely justified in walking away at this point.

Just my opinion (which may not be worth much), the assignments were right, but the results suggest he's more advanced.

Love the numbers, but in an odd way they point out the disparity between hitting and pitching prospects in this org. He's been a AA talent pitching to A guys so far this year

Even setting aside Jung, Graham, Keith or Perez, Jeimer has been bad enough where I'm questioning whether Kody Clemens or Brendon Davis are worse options. It would be nice to know whether this horrific season was a one off, but aside from the unknown of what replaces him, I don't see the compelling reason to tender him.

I get it. It says a lot about where they are at the moment.

He's gonna get all the rope he needs, but I dont know of a compelling that Jeimer should be tendered at this point

Probably fair, although Candy gets the nod because the inning likely ends with zero if he makes that DP

X2

The Candyman can! (make a mess of that play)
