We have this discussion every spring. And every spring, back end of the bullpen arms who do well in ST games make the team. The same with the last bench utility spots. And then, after a few weeks, some changes are made, guys get called up and other guys are demoted. Most teams have competition for a couple of spots.

Wow....I looked it up here...it's almost $18 per pound...if they even had it. It says "item unavailable" Yeah, I would skip it too. Thats crazy...

His defense may keep him on the team, we'll see. But my point wasn't about the established players or pitchers. Yes, they are making tweaks that may cause their small sample size numbers to look bad but I meant the fringe players and the kids. If Kevin was really struggling in his spring at bats, it may have meant starting the season in Toledo. As it is, he looks like he may be our starting SS. Opposite for Clark, the kid looks totally overmatched. For these types of players, spring results really do matter. Small sample size or not.

It's actually at a good price here in Metro Detroit...$4.49 a pound for Corned Beef Brisket.

The good news is if the Pistons keep playing like this, we won't have to worry about Boston. 🤨🤨

Parker Meadows agrees....from Toledo. 😅😅

As long as the Republicans control Congress, there won't be any investigation. It's why the midterms are so important. If this SAVE act doesnt get passed, I could see this administration creating a false flag terrorist attack so Trump can call martial law and cancel elections. He'll just blame Joe Biden for allowing immigrant terrorists into the country. Never mind that there was a bipartisan border bill that Trump quashed so he could run on a racist immigration issue.

Agreed on Kevin...and, while stats are totally meaningless for established players, they are pretty important for the fringe players and young kids. Max Clark is a good example, he's played himself back to the minors. I really think that if he would have come to camp and tore it up, he would have made the roster. And Meadows? The same, a strong spring would have guaranteed him a spot. With his lack of any offense this spring, his future in Detroit may be in doubt. His defense is great but he has to hit a little bit. Pitching wise, a big surprise (to me) has been Drew Anderson. The guy has been flawless. He may have worked himself up to a #6 starter....so far.

There could be a video of that pig committing a serious crime and he would say..."see, the video exonerates me" and his MAGA base would eat it up.

Playing the Miami Heat?

I don’t really understand all of the facts. But people need to be careful making accusations. Just because there are names in the Epstein files doesnt mean they're pedophiles. The way I hear it is some folks are mentioned in some emails just because they know or did business with Epstein. But it's obvious that there are some people who obviously knew and joined in his perversions....cough....cough....Trump.

Agreed. Of course, all of those quality players he drafted were the result of high draft picks from so much losing. And the Stafford trade. He had a lot of assets to work with. And while I agree he's had several misses recently,we can't complain. His roster is a winning franchise. The next couple of years will tell a lot, can he build around several very good players?

But to be fair, every team can look back at every draft and say they should have taken this player instead of that player. Monday Morning Quarterbacking.

Ugh.....no excuse.

First team to 20 wins...lol
