Mize was 1-1 as well

That homer for Schoop should not even count lol

Yu Chang in the mound?

There ya go, 1 for 1 baby

These young starters will never get the due they deserve. They would be the worst team in baseball without em

2 homers in 2 games for Izaac Pacheco

Jarvy made a great play for a change. Was not rewarded lol

I just think Detroit sports fans tend to get hung up on old greats taking over the team. No doubt that is amplified by Yzerman, who achieved success in the front office elsewhere, coming home. Salvation for this team is going to come from finding the next Mike Elias. It's not going to come from waiting for a former Detroit great to get the job.

I'm sure it happens in other fan bases, but this obsession with former greats taking over is dumb. The Tigers need someone from a different organization to instill new philosophies. They dont need the past.

Avila didn't smile or look comfortable the entire time as well.

It's a number retirement ceremony, but it's almost doubling as an examination of evidence of Lou's case as a HOF-er

Don't know why the Tigers don't call up JK Simmons more often...

If Tork comes back up and turns it around, 2019 and 2020 will end up being massive improvements over the early Avila years draft-wise Honestly might be some of the better evidence against drafting pitchers early, which has long been a discussion point on the board lol

Tigers are #2 in waiver priority, so they would likely have the opportunity... He's had a bad year and Ks too much, but this team badly needs needs someone who can hit for power. Not just for the rest of this year but next year as well

Normally not a "we need to claim this guy" kinda guy... But I'd take a flyer here

With prospects in particular, I don't even mind the past couple of drafts on paper (although would have preferred they not draft Jobe), but I dont know how realistic it is to assume that anymore than 2-3 guys make it out of either of them under any circumstance. It's not even so much an indictment of the front office or the new player development folks and more of a realization that all of these guys, like Jung or Graham or Jobe or Madden, are still capable of flaming out as they move up the ladder. That happens even to good orgs, let alone this one where success has been elusive.

Dems in... array?

Overall, a pretty decent day for 2022 draft picks... all except Luke Gold got hits in their debuts I believe

Brieske: 4.1 IP, 3H, 1R, 8K (!)

All I'm gonna say is that if they manage to win this and Garcia ekes out another inning, I hope he’s not the guy they interview afterward. 6 G'd walks lol

Bloop and a blast baybee!

47 pitches in two innings. Is that baaaad?

You'll have to ask Miggy that question. Whether he comes back next year or not is kind of up to him.
