Detroit quickly changed their reputation as a cute loser to a winning culture. I have never seen a team change their reputation so quickly.
-
But it sounds better that we were trolling SF. 😆
-
Yup. Green Bay finished the season 6-2, smoked Dallas IN Dallas and then gave SF a scare. Love looks like the real deal. I'm glad the Lions are better...
-
I didn't know they gave him an error on that play. I remember thinking it was Meadows fault, a CF is supposed to take charge.
-
The first error Perez makes in the OF will have posters calling for his head. 😅😅
-
Agreed. Especially with how well their pitching is doing. It was encouraging to see Meadows use the opposite field. Going the other way or bunting can get players out of a slump, sometimes. I've been waiting for Meadows to lay down a bunt, use his natural speed.
-
I say this every year when a guy comes up from Toledo and has a bit of success...some players are better at the ML level for a variety of reasons. Better field conditions, pitchers more around the plate, better lighting, less travel and better nutrition. It makes sense if true.
-
Meadows could really make a difference if he could only get on base more consistently. He would be an excellent leadoff hitter. As it is, how about Perez hitting leadoff? I don't like Greene leading off because no matter when he bats, there are black holes hitting before him. I would rather see guys on base for him. Especially if Tork keeps tanking.

But not a winning April. 13-12 in April with 2 games to go.
-
KC is very, very scrappy. They should win a lot of games with that team speed. It really puts pressure on the fielders.
-
Yeah, I think I remember that now. So Skubal works up the list even more of LH pitchers drafted and developed by Detroit. And there's a lot of years between Lolich and Skubal.
-
Great list. I should have been more specific....pitchers drafted and developed by Detroit. Thompson, Robertson and then Skubal. And Skubal moving on up!
-
The Lions signed some UDFA players; https://www.si.com/nfl/lions/lions-2024-undrafted-free-agent-tracker
-
We should have some decent depth on our practice squad.
-
Canha schools Tork on how to play 1st base.
-
Is Skubal our best LH starting pitcher since Mickey Lolich?
-
Bally showing the highlights of how Jobe ans Max Clark are doing in Erie is must-see-TV. Their future looks very bright. I sure hope they're not rushed.
-
And his aggressiveness, all season long, makes Campbell a fan favorite. I read somewhere that more teams should play the percentages and go for it on 4th downs. I love him doing it!
-
Short, routine throw and he threw it 5 feet wide of Mize. Absolutely no excuse.
-
It felt like the Tigers should have been down big in the first few innings. KC totally outplayed us and we were bumbling around. But again, a late comeback and we pull one out. 4 errors in a win is pretty rare. But I like our chances tomorrow to win the series. Skubal is a beast!
-
True...Monroe irritates me.
-
The problem in the NFC Championship game was Dan didn't even attempt what could have been winning kicks. He could have made up to 45 yard kicks. Campbell really gambles on those 4th downs, all season long. High success rate, too. Hopefully, we'll keep winning without clutch kicks.
-
Are you kidding? He makes excuses for our mistakes. Bad hop...cut of the grass...every time.
-
Gary Shefield-like.
-
Badgley made a 54 yard fg that ended up being the winning points against the Rams.
