  1. 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
  2. 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
  3. I wonder if CBS still invites this chud onto the Face the Nation? Vile
  4. Not AJ's style to be this explicit, but they earned it today!
  5. 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
  6. The Tigers should be on Peacock more often, makes it so much easier to avoid watching lol
  7. Sarcasm sometime can be lost on a message board lol
  8. Grossman gives them the best chance to win... definitely most important consideration when 19 games under .500 👍
  9. 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.
  10. Taking legislation that helps our vets hostage because of Washington political inside baseball There truly is no bottom with these clowns.
  11. Pleased to hear this with respect to Skubal, but I would certainly hope the dont value Soto the same as Skubal.
  12. 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
  13. 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.
  14. Dillon Dingler must enjoy playing Reading... just hit his 3rd homer in 5 games!
  15. 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
  16. 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!
  17. 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
  18. This take is aging like a glass of milk left out in the Texas sun lol
  19. He's this year's Ian Krol. lol My guess is he's gone whenever Peralta comes off his rehab assignment
  20. To be fair, they basically had a bullpen game yesterday and options are limited. But the staging of appearances leaves a lot to be desired.
  21. Gonna give AJ the benefit of the doubt on pulling Hutch given that he'd be facing the lineup for the third time. But almost seems like they needed more of a leverage guy to face the top of the order, even if its the 6th
  22. Nice of AJ to give Derek Law the top of the Jays order to mark his return to the bigs lol
