  1. I hope those 2 runs helps to relax Montero.
  2. Perez taking that extra base was a veteran move.
  3. Perez...RBI!!
  4. Both of them? Real Twin fans know they're done. Cooked.
  5. Parker is my Tiger. He has been since he came back. We're about 25 games over .500 with him in the line-up.
  6. Montero needs to relax. Sometimes people forget he's a rookie. Leash...short.
  7. Dingler isn't do him any favors.
  8. Montero is tight.
  9. Jobe tonight? I hope the kid doesn't struggle if so.
  10. They won't get better by trading away one of the best players at his position in the NFL. Fans need to realize that Lions 1st round picks aren't as valuable as they used to be.
  11. It was in the Free Press last week or so. I figured in was TP Fan harassing Campbell....🤣🤣🤣
  12. Yeah, it's crazy to see folks on Twitter say the Lions should go out and get Higgins. I even saw an argument that the Lions should go after Maxx Crosby. Crazy talk because Holmes doesn't usually swing huge trades and the Raiders aren't looking to trade away an important defensive player. There's a big difference between what fans want them to do and what they actually can do. SMH
  13. Whoever is currently in charge says they know best what to do and how to do it. I still remember Avila (or Chris?) declaring the rebuild was over. Then we went out and lost about 200 games the next couple of seasons. And yeah, Harris may do a good job. But the results will be on the field and the standing, not by talk.
  14. The Astros are just rolling over for Seattle. The division is locked up so they're resting many of their regulars. I hope the Tigers sweep them. 😅
  15. Well, the MLB draft is pretty much a crapshoot. It's just so very hard to see where HS players will develop into in 3 to 5 years. College players are a bit easier to judge but most of the better ones are gone in the early rounds. And the earlier picks (Tork) are given much more time and many more chances than later rounds picks. The smart move would be to move on if these guys don't start producing after a certain amount of at bats. Tork's recent issue with sliders is really starting to remind me of Javy. If the Tigers can't get him to lay off of that pitch, it's pretty hopeless. It's almost time to move on...
  16. While I agree with most of this, I can't agree with Avila actually doing anything more than just being in charge when players got drafted. He had a team of scouts in place who gave him advice on who to draft. Giving Avila credit for much of anything is giving him too much credit. I understand that IF he was told to slash payroll, that he was forced to trade away all of our ML talent. But he took some very poor advice on the returns. He slashed payroll but the players he received were very underwhelming. Who's left? Jake Rogers? Olson? I can't think of many other remaining players.
  17. Watching the Houston game, the announcers are actually discussing who the 'Stros will play in the 2nd round after they're done with the Tigers.
  18. He also was bad at hiring people to develop players. Looking at the roster, there's a lot of players he drafted. But it took better people to find the right team to actually develop them.
  19. LET'S GO!!!
  20. I saw something funny on Twitter. I can't find it but it was something like; Water covers 2/3 of the earth. Parker Meadows covers the other 1/3. 🤣🤣
  21. IMO, Shep always seemed like he was just filling in. Like a temporary broadcaster. I never disliked the guy, he always just seemed...meh.
  22. They finish in Atlanta for 3 games after 2 more in Washington.
  23. They have to won ar least one, don't they? A 2 game lead with 5 to go.
