  1. We ride him hard, but glad to see him come up with one!
  2. Terrible lol
  3. He definitely should survive the initial round of optioning associated with Meadows coming back
  4. Has Suzyn Waldman called Rony Garcia a AA scrub yet?
  5. Morning baseball and the Tigers offense... ample excuse to drink early and often lol
  6. Fortune favors the bold.... W
  7. A publication called "RedState" calling someone who doesn't agree with its POV liberal? That's about as shocking as the Tigers scoring zero runs today
  8. The Yankees TV broadcast isn't quite as bad, especially with David Cone elevated, he's pretty fair. But yeah, the Yankees oriented media have this tendency to act like the Yankees are entitled to at least 5 runs against pitchers that aren't big names or they haven't heard of and it's sort of ridiculous. Some of it is the Yankees stature, but tbh, some of it is laziness as well... maybe I'm spoiled by Dan Dickerson, but maybe do a little research before the next opponent comes to town... Beau Brieske isn't the best pitcher, but by virtue of what he has shown in the bigs to date, he clearly doesn't belong in AA either.
  9. Play Cameron and Hill in the outfield every single game. Since they are so shorthanded, platoon Clemens and W.Castro. It's not that hard, but Willi's BABIPfest that ended 2+ weeks ago seems to have folks convinced that his bat is useful enough to ignore his inability to play the outfield. I just don't agree.... and looking between the lines, it's pretty clear that it's not happening game after game purely out of desperation. Ill gladly eat crow when Meadows and Greene end up elevated and W.Castro is demoted or not playing outfield. But I'll believe it when I see it.
  10. Come on, really? Sure I'm glad that Willi is happy to play wherever, that doesn't mean that the Tigers should just play him wherever, nor does it absolve Al or AJ or whoever from criticism when the decision doesn't work out. Even with as bad as the offense has been, you can't just put a guy with a .640 OPS in a position he doesn't know how to field. I can't see how to countenance it
  11. With respect, eat it Suzyn
  12. Major kudos to Brieske for this start... not an easy place to play and not an easy lineup to face. And pitched his best game of the year. Too bad he wasn't backed by competent offense
  13. With Vest and Foley pitching as they have been and with Cisnero and Alexander on the way back, Joe oughtta feel a little nervous.
  14. Old Joe makes an appearance at Yankee Stadium this afternoon lol
  15. At least they'll get better defense lol
  16. This is true. They did just come off of shutting down the Angels... still frustrating tho
  17. I love Cody, but he's just wrong here... it's not realistic to expect pitchers to throw a shutout every game. And often times the Tigers force their starters to do that.
  18. Still pretty impressed by the start for Brieske here... just completely failed by the offense so far
  19. Brutal brutal O
  20. Gonna be a shame that Beau's reward for his best outing as a professional will be his fifth career loss and an 0-5 record.
  21. Really not sure they have much choice but to ride this out...
  22. Dont want to jinx it, but this is the best Brieske has looked all season... only real mistake was the cookie FB to Judge (even the Stanton double wasn't that bad of a pitch)
