  1. Uniforms look much better when the Tigers are scoring runs.
  2. I was underwhelmed with his last off-season moves. But I most definitely do not want him to trade any of our young prospects. Especially for a player who may just leave in a year or two anyway. This Tiger team is in need of more than just a player or two. We have to have patience and let the chips fall where they may.
  3. I would say Jung, Jobe and Clark are the future. Jobe is probably the closest but the amount of pitchers getting hurt is concerning. But again, they may struggle at the ML level so we will need to...evaluate once they get here.
  4. So true.....haters get blocked. Who really needs that negativity? I'm probably as impatient as anyone but even I know it takes time. Some of Avila's draft picks are just coming into the picture. It takes a while in baseball...at least 3 years IF there's talent to start. The Tigers are close, no reason to mortgage the future for a hitter right now who won't get us over the top anyway. With Max Clark and Jung maybe coming up in the next couple of years, we may be able to build something that will last for several years. I would rather develop our own talent and pay them than bring in some expensive 2 or 3 year rental just to win a few extra games this and next season.
  5. In order to get quality in return, you need to give up quality. Do you want to trade Riley, Skubal or Jobe? We're not going to get a quality player for much less. I'm not even thinking about the needed salary for this quality bat...
  6. There's people calling for his head after just 1 1/2 years? One draft? Get back to me in 3 more years. We can't be firing our GM every two years. And I thought I was impatient...
  7. He's had one draft. We have no idea about salary restraints he's working with. Patience, the Tigers are already better than they were when he arrived.
  8. Scott Harris was hired 2 years ago this September. Give the guy at least 5 years to build a team. It makes sense that they didn't sign an expensive hitter, we're more then one player away. We need more hitting, that should be obvious to everyone.
  9. Yeah, Harris has only been here, what, a year and a half? Give him a few more years to get some of his draft choices to Detroit. As for trades, all we had in the past was garbage to offer. We remember what Randy Smith did with garbage, just traded it for other teams garbage. Free agents are mind blowing expensive. At least, quality free agents. And we don't know if he has payroll limitations or not. Hinch I don't have any opinion on. The talent on this team is limited. I question many of his moves but I'm sure there are reasons behind them. Just stop leading Greene off...😁😁
  10. The odds...once Javy got thrown out at 2nd base, the Tiger odds of winning went way down. If you believe in that sort of thing.
  11. Looks like next Thursday...LET'S GO!! https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/2024-nfl-schedule-release-tentatively-set-for-may-15-how-to-watch-stream-plus-what-we-know-about-the-games/
  12. Really? You didn't see the loss coming? Huh..
  13. The secret is to post Hobbes before the game and after we win. That way, you'll never forget! 😆
  14. Yeah, nobody saw that loss coming. When asked about the loss by the in-laws, just act dumb and say..."oh, did they already play? I didn't notice" 😆
  15. It's over. Sorry, Tigers lose.
  16. This loss is on Hinch. His intelligence makes him....stupid. Foley in the 7th inning? Really? WTF is he thinking?
  17. And next season and the season after...
  18. Hinch is putting guys in situations they don't belong because he doesn't care if we win or lose during an evaluation season. But yeah, buy some tickets, isn't it fun?
  19. Using your closer in the 7th inning though? I really hope we don't see Miller in the 9th inning.
  20. I was thinking the same thing. Has he even had a lead to protect this season?
  21. "Hey Reese...we're not going to score any runs for you or play defense. Good luck"
  22. What's his babip? That's always a good indication of how his future will go. Just going by eye, the kid has good stuff.
