The big thing is that he cannot project relentless negativity, and he doesn't... that's to his credit.
-
Except on that pitch to Paredes lol
-
Rony has looked decent, honestly...
-
And trading for Montas? You're probably going to have to (at least) give up one of your other starters (ie. Manning) in order to get him. Makes no sense at all.
-
If they catch some breaks down the road, they may be able to make another push toward .500 similar to last year, but playoffs aren't happening with this team.

Bye

Good job Rony!
-
Out of opening week, Tarik Skubal is the last man standing. Plus Pineda went down as well. That's, like, five starters down. Unreal.
-
Well, they better stretch out Wily now.... lol
-
Doug Teter sighting.... ****
-
Look at that skillfull hit by Willi Castro.... he practices that all the time in batting practice! lmao
-
For all the Tigers troubles, they are only 7 games back.... says a lot about the Central lol
-
Probably... McClanahan is nasty
-
Wenceel Perez with his 7th homer tonight... gotta think he's close to a call up being justified.
-
Yep... he's not gonna win this outing, it was a tough draw, but he seems to be getting more swinging strikes than previous outings. Good sign.
-
Three K's in Three innings seems like an improvement for Brieske...

Exactly.

This is right. I will say that I am encouraged that he's showing this level of productivity while still just coming off TJ. Most of us probably didn't expect to see him in Detroit this quickly at all and that he'd be given more time in Toledo, although injuries have obviously pushed the issue. Gives me some home he can improve from what we have seen.
-
He also has the 2nd worst BABIP in baseball among qualified batters (behind Abraham Toro for Seattle).... there was a period in April where he was legit bad, but since the LA series or so, it seems like he's not been slumping per se, but just has been unlucky.
-
That's not to speak of the fact that they have guys like Wentz, Olson and Hill that could all be knocking on the door this time next year. Good problem to have.

Turning the Corner Podcast had an interesting discussion about leadership and how, at least from the outside, it seems like this team kinda lacks of a true leader in the clubhouse. And how many may have had a perception of Baez being that guy but that, despite his qualities as a showman on the field, is a much more complex dude off the field. At this point, it seems like Barnhart fills that role to an extent, as he seems to talk to the media often and relay the mood of the team, but it's an interesting observation... I don't know that it matters much though.
