And we also need to keep perspective - that's a really good baseball team that they faced this weekend. And as discouraging as it is, considering that the Sox are in the division, I don't know that anyone expects this Tigers team to be on par with the White Sox this season or to seriously push them for the division this year. Overall, I don't know that my view of this team (I had them at 82 wins) changed much on the basis of this one series. From a roster perspective, they are better than they were last year overall but are still a work in progress. And really, as Scottwood suggests, they go as far as their starting pitching will allow. We didn't see great performances in the first series, but it's a long season and I suspect that there will be more good than bad.

Or else what?

Need to see how Round 2 voting shakes out. Melanchon going out and telling his supporters that Le Pen shouldn't get a single vote from his supporters in Round 2 is a big deal tho.... he kinda dragged his heels last time.

But... he gained a lot of muscle in the offseason 🤣

Currently listening to the Brewers game... who are trying to avoid being swept by the Cubs. Braves are looking likely to drop 2/3 against the fire sale Reds. Today's game was bad, the offense in particular concerns me, but gotta keep perspective for sure

From the looks of it, there's a lot of future SeaWolves in that WMI lineup lol

Not that it matters because of how lackluster everyone not named Victor Reyes has looked offensively, but trying to get an additional inning out of Elvin was a mistake by AJ imo

Tork needs a day off

Seriously. I'm open to the idea that they may not be as good as advertised, but I'm not making that judgment after three games.

Just to add, Dylan Smith (3rd round pick) did 3IP, 1H, 1R, 0BB, 4K for WMI Not too shabby

Good on Boris for doing that!

I may be in the minority, but I don't know that the Baez play was as bad as the Detroit media is making it seem...

Amen. Go get em tmrw

Fulmer's velocity went up some today... good sign

Nvm, good job Tony L!

Darn, Tony L making the change just as Cease ceases to look superhuman lol

Tough way to close the book on Mize...

Good recovery by Casey there!

Dylan Cease man...

People are gonna complain about the lack of strikeouts, but Casey has looked solid today overall

Yes and no - he was a Tiger killer with the bat yesterday

Yesterday somehow continues to get worse for the Sox

I dont know who the person (unicorn) is, but I'm increasingly convinced if you managed to pair Shep with a good color commentator, he'd be no worse than Mario. He has the broadcasting skill and seems like he puts the work in to be familiar with the team and stats, the overall composition of the crew leaves a lot to be desired tho.
