In other words, prior to his dad hiring DD, he was his son. I dont know if Pizza Jr. will ever figure it out, but his Dad wasn't a Saint either, particularly for those of us who don't care as much about the hockey side of the business. The franchise was arguably worse when DD took over then than it is now, and Senior deserves credit for that.

William Clay Ford's problem wasn't ignorance... Plenty of ignorant owners have won championships over the years in the four major sports. Georgia Frontiere and David Glass come to mind. And lack of confidence isn't a factor either. He just didn't want to fire his buddy. Ilitch Sr. Wasn't much better for this franchise on that front until he hired DD. And in present day, we are kinda left hoping that hiring AJ serves a similar purpose lol

Last Day of July. Eric Haase is the best hitter in the lineup. Al's legacy!

Mariners using a 30 year old making his ML debut in the 10th inning of a tie ballgame against the Astros. May we interest you in one Joe Jimenez?

One thing that probably hurts Skubal's market? The fact that the Red Sox and Giants now appear postured as sellers at this deadline. Adds guys like Eovaldi and Rodon to the market, one would think

Watching the Astros-Mariners game right now and reminded that the Astros announcer, Todd Kalas, is the son of Harry Kalas, who did radio for the Phillies and was the voice of NFL Films for years. Like his dad, he has the deep voice and is pretty enjoyable to listen to

I wonder if CBS still invites this chud onto the Face the Nation? Vile

Not AJ's style to be this explicit, but they earned it today!

Still think that the best overall pairing for a Skubal trade are the Cards. They really could use Skubal, and they have a lot of what the Tigers do not have in terms of major league or cusp of major league bats. But I dont think it's happening, not should it

The Tigers should be on Peacock more often, makes it so much easier to avoid watching lol

Sarcasm sometime can be lost on a message board lol

Grossman gives them the best chance to win... definitely most important consideration when 19 games under .500 👍

Bally's presentation across all of their markets is terrible, not just Detroit. Especially when compared to the ROOT Sports/ATT Sportsnet markets like Houston or Seattle or Pittsburgh. For whatever reason, they all seem to invest more in presentation. Apple's biggest problem is the announcing. I can ignore all the gambling stuff, but they are just the perfect marriage of great presentation and truly terrible announcing. Particularly in the early slot.

Taking legislation that helps our vets hostage because of Washington political inside baseball There truly is no bottom with these clowns.

Pleased to hear this with respect to Skubal, but I would certainly hope the dont value Soto the same as Skubal.

Under. I would lean for 2 as well... Jimenez I'm kinda 50/50 on, there have been a lot of press clippings on him but also was suggested on the radio broadcast (with Cody Stavenhagen in booth) that the market for his services was light thus far. but things can change fast

I've watched quite a few different broadcasts since having the MLB.TV subscription. I agree with some of what was written, but a few disagreements: White Sox - Benetti is actually pretty good. Stoney? Ehh, he may be mailing it in some, but to me they are the best broadcast in the AL Central. Orioles - The comment about Jim Palmer is sort of unfair... he does talk about the past some, but he's still pretty well read and up to date on today's game as well. Usually learn something from listening to him and he clearly puts in the work, which compares favorably to Jimmie P. Diamondbacks - Don't care much for Brenly but Steve Berthiaume is way better than Shep IMO. He's come a long way since Sportscenter. Padres - Its an interesting pairing, Orsillo is great but overall Mark Grant is a bit too much of a clown for my taste. They find themselves at times talking about anything but the game. Particularly when the Friars are losing. Just a few thoughts, others who know otherwise may disagree.

Dillon Dingler must enjoy playing Reading... just hit his 3rd homer in 5 games!

Still blown away by this. Is there a reason why an error on the pitcher shouldn't count toward ERA? Maybe there is, but it seems bizarre to me

Fun fact, because of the error that Law himself committed, all four of the runs he gave up are unearned. His ERA? 0.00. Can't make it up!

I believe that Law is a direct consequence of Chafin being unavailable, although one wonders if selecting literally anyone else may have been a better option

This take is aging like a glass of milk left out in the Texas sun lol

No doubt

He's this year's Ian Krol. lol My guess is he's gone whenever Peralta comes off his rehab assignment
