Oh no, they don't start back up tonight. The ASB is way too long...

I don't understand why teams who are having a down year would wanna trade quality players. They'll need those players to compete next season. Unless they'll be free agents anyway, may as well get something better than a comp draft choice.

I don't really know most of those players or how highly touted the Tiger prospects are. Jung I know, not greatly impressed. Maybe he'll get better.

So....is Carpenter back?

I saw an article that said the Tigers should acquire Bednar. It showed his good secondary stats that say hes a good pitcher who just had a couple of bad outings.

Weren't the Tigers below .500 at last year's trade deadline? Our schedule coming out of the All Star break looks...alarming?

Sun God on a cereal box. I think maybe they're not allowed to show an actual NFL jersey?

I think they should try thumb wrestling. Or maybe Rock-Papers-Scissors? Get outta here with the gimmicks, forget the fake ghost runner. Go back to playing real baseball. That's what fans really want, the tradition of having the contest decided by an entire team.

I came here to post an actual quote that was in the paper this morning. People say a swing off is fine for an exhibition game? My response was to be careful for what you accept, pretty soon you will be told that "everyone" loves it and "everyone" wants it. Pure, 100% gaslighting; “It'll be interesting to see where that goes,” AL manager Aaron Boone said after Tuesday's game. “There's probably a world where you could see that in the future, where maybe it's in some regular season mix. I wouldn't be surprised if people start talking about it like that.”

It was gross even reading it.

95 games left. What if the bubble has burst and the Tigers pull a 2024 Twins? I admit, kinda worried...

They want to talk it up because they plan to keep using it. Next, they'll say everyone loves it. Pure gaslighting. Repeat a lie long and loud enough and it becomes a truth.

Reading Tweets, many fans really don't know much about baseball. Tigers draft a pitcher? Call him up. Just...no clue. It's not a video game...🤣🤣

If Harris were serious about winning, he would go ahead and trade for Juan Soto, Ohtani and Skenes. /s

The Cubs got Crow-Armstrong from the Mets when they traded them....Javy.

This is ridiculous. They need to allow a taxi squad of 2 pitchers for each league in case of a tie. Sorry, but this is pretty stupid

No Judge or Ohtani?

It will end in a tie.

Baseball is a better game with a healthy Buxton.

I smiled when I saw Kwan. He's a huge PITA. And Skubal is off the hook. Gonna end a tie game?

These exhibition games make me nervous ever since Pete Rose injured Ray Fosse.

If those were the Lions forum, there would be a poster who wants to fire Hinch, Fetter and all the hitting coaches. As well as Joey Cora every time a runner gets thrown out. 🤣🤣

Skubal stock dropping...😅😅

McLain actually started the 1966 All Star game and pitched 3 innings.
