  1. I don't think I'm the only Tiger fan that doesn't have much confidence in Flaherty. He needs a few good starts in a row, no more meltdowns in an inning.
  2. Resting Dingler so he can play tomorrow? OK, I guess. As long as we win tonight...
  3. I used to have that exact book. I see on ebay there's another version (edition?)?
  4. If he keeps playing like he has been... And just think, the Jake injury last season pressed Dingler into full time duty. He took the job and ran away with it...kinda like a modern day Wally Pipp. πŸ˜†
  5. So....the rain in Metro Detroit is supposed to move out by 5:30 or so. I wonder how much rain the field at Comerica got? I'm sure Heather will have it in top shape... The driveway is very wet.
  6. I really like this new attitude around MLB of teams identifying talent and signing them long term at a young age. Keeping a core of players together is old school, even if the money isn't old school. πŸ˜…πŸ˜…
  7. Im starting to wonder how many years until there are no more Avila players in the organization? 5 years? 7 years?
  8. I also remember kids on the playground using the n word while saying eenie meany miney moe...catch a _____ by the toe.
  9. In the 70', Canada had little black licorice candies called n..... babies.
  10. Sirens and very LOUD phone alerts woke me out of a sound sleep at about 1:30 AM. I finally got up and went to the basement at about 2 AM when thunder totally woke me up. I had just settled in when the lights went out. Luckily, I had the brains to take a lantern down there with me. 10 minutes later, the light came back on. The tornado warning (not watch) was over at 2:30 AM but I stayed down there until 2:50 or so. I was pretty surprised I fell back asleep, usually after waking up I toss and turn.
  11. And yet......the Pope is soft on crime. Yeah, OK.
  12. Today's Free Press trolling Chas; On Saturday, I asked Toledo manager Gabe Alvarez who could move up and help the Tigers? He answered without pause: Gage Workman, a versatile infielder who is hitting .375 with a 1.090 OPS. β€œGage Workman's playing really well, really swinging the bat,” Alvarez said in Toledo. β€œHe's a great baserunner. He can steal a base for you. He's a plus defender at multiple positions - short, third or second.” Speaking of Workman, consider the talent the Tigers found in the 2020 MLB Draft. First round: Spencer Torkelson. Second round: Dingler. Fourth round: Workman. Fifth round: Colt Keith. Not a bad draft ... for former Tigers GM Al Avila..
  13. I turn off the audio at times too. When the giggling starts, the sound goes off.
  14. Prime Failure!!
  15. Hornets are gonna win now, aren't they? Missed about a million 3s.
  16. KC doesn"t score many runs and the Tigers pitching was outstanding tonight. Now we have our #4 and #5 SP going. Montero may shut them down and hopefully Flahery has a very short leash.
  17. Late wins are SO much fun.
  18. Its a Vest win....come on Jansen...
  19. Will Vest is good ANY inning. πŸ˜†
  20. Valdez doesnt have good control tonight. Nibbling at the corners.
  21. Any rational thinking human knows the Trump administration is the most corrupt in the history of the US. By far. Corruption and cruelty are the main reasons Trump wanted to be POTUS. Deporting violent criminals? Democrats are also for that. Deporting grandmothers and other innocent people? Only MAGA is OK with that.
  22. More accurate;
