  1. Definitely the most memorable player of that late 90s, early 2000s era and probably the best as well. He strikes me as a guy who would have been remembered differently had he been around and at his prime during the 2006-2014 era. Completely forgot about this, but this is spot on... he frequently brought up "Big Bob" during broadcasts when he was paired with Lewin. In retrospect it was sorta weird, but one gets the impression that Gibby must have liked that crew off the field.
  2. Tigers are now 6-2 against Cleveland this year... Wild
  3. I really hate it when you're winning.
  4. Will Vest's lucky day lol
  5. Good point, oops!
  6. Sure enough... 3 whole innings of them in fact lol
  7. At this rate, Terry F is gonna be sending out a position player in this one lol
  8. Riley again!
  9. Cleveland with more Tigeresque D
  10. TBF, the guys who would ideally be taking these starts are all pitching in the majors right now (ie. Faedo, Brieske, Hill) because of injuries or guys being MIA (ie. Mize, Manning, ERod, previously Pineda).... two of their other options (ie. R. Garcia, Wentz) are injured, and another option clearly isn't a better option than Hutchison at the moment (ie. ElRod) I guess they could theoretically reach further down and bring Reese Olson or Austin Bergner or Chance Kirby into this mess, but I'm guessing they do not think they are ready. At this point, I'll take the fact that they have barely had any scheduled bullpen games during a year where they've set a record for the franchise in terms different starters as a sign of progress, even if it involves Hutchison getting starts.
  11. Heartbreaking.... cannot even imagine.
  12. Is Boris' time up?
  13. Considering where he was at the beginning of the year, Parker Meadows would qualify as a bright spot IMO. Not necessarily an all inclusive list, and others MMV, but here's a few I'd say qualify. Upper Minors: Wenceel, Carpenter, Meadows, Lipcius, Hill (as we saw yesterday), Flores, Olson, Bergner Lower Minors: Ty Madden, Brant Hurter, Colt Keith (when he wasn't injured), Josh Crouch, Izaac Pacheco, Manuel Sequera (good power #'s, needs to make more consistent contact), Garrett Burhenn The big question I have is with the some of the position players who have broken out (ie. Carpenter) or have seen their stock rebound (ie. Wenceel, Lipcius, Meadows) is whether they can go beyond the expectation of being slotted as utility/depth guys at the big league level. Or in the case of Carpenter the perception of being a AAAA guy. Skeptical, but who knows.
  14. SHLIACH: SHOOTER TRIED ENTERING CHABAD HOUSE ON PESACH
  15. This is another thing that a country with a functional government would be able to grapple or deal with in a more effective manner. Yet will not for obvious reasons.
  16. Our "militia" is about as well organized as Al Avila's Detroit Tigers lol
  17. Even by the 18th century definition, a member of the militia who goes out and shoots and kills 6 people at a parade suggests that the militia isn't well organized. But point taken.
  18. The comments are a thing to behold, talking about 2A rights and all, when his point is as much about the regulation of firearms in this country. There's a class of people (including those with robes) who, apparently, read 2A and think that regulations are a violation. Nevermind the fact that the word "regulated" is IN the amendment, all regulations bad.
  19. Vest and Foley both have options I believe.... really a coin flip between the two, but while Vest really doesn't deserve it, he has struggled a bit with slider command lately and probably benefits more from a demotion than Foley would.
  20. Another nice game for Baddoo tho. 2-4, 2B, HR, BB, 3 RBI
  21. Could be representing Toledo next year...
  22. Or acquired it through a straw purchaser in those one of those states (aka. "The Rittenhouse")
  23. Really good day today... felt a little more like 2021 today lol
