  1. So put Keith at 3rd...Lee at 2nd. And find a 1st baseman...Toledo or a trade? Waiver wire? Shake. Things. Up. No more Tork...no more Perez and no more Short.
  2. I don't care so much for ever using Short at...short (😁). I say use McGonigle at SS and either Zach, Keith or Lee at 3rd. Even with a LH SP against us, Zack or Keith have better chances of getting on base. My shakeup attempt would have Zack in RF, Keith at 1st base, the kid at SS and Lee at 3rd. We need a 2nd baseman from Toledo?? The heck with the lefty-righty splits, it's obviously not working. And Tork needs some time down in Toledo. So Perez, Tork and Short benched. Addition by subtraction.
  3. Is this his quote from last September? Or recent? It could be either....
  4. Run the same lineup out there and expect different results? Or shake things up and try to send a message? Bench Tork? Sit Perez? And please....no more Short.
  5. Who? Javy? Carpenter? The problem is mostly scoring runs, our pitching has kept us in most games. I agree, it's not on Hinch. We need a RH power hitting RF or DH. We didnt address our September drop-off in the winter and it seems to have carried over. Edit; oh, and it's time for Tork to make a Toledo visit.
  6. Philadelphia fired their manager and now they are red hot! Coincidence?
  7. Can't argue with that. Some of these Tiger games are unwatchable.
  8. Riley, McGonigle and.....Dingler?
  9. 4 runs might as well be 100 runs with this Tigers offense.
  10. Is it because Valdez is a ground ball pitcher and he wants his best IF defense? That is my only guess. We need to score runs and Short is pretty useless.
  11. Next year, Mize, Skubal and Flaherty may all be gone. JV may be pretty much done, he's a huge question mark. Looking at a trade Dombrowski made over 15 years ago doesn't make much srnse, Harris doesnt make many deals. And trading cost controlled pitchers is not something he'll do. Yes, we may have a surplus but that means Hinch may only use pitchers who are effective. If so, Bye-Bye Jack.
  12. Harris hasn't really made many significant trades. Small deals and waiver wire pickups, mostly. It would be nice to find a CF player who can actually hit. Or maybe a RF hitter. A RH DH? We need to start hitting and scoring runs. Trading pitching could be dangerous....too many injuries happen. DFA Flaherty....addition by subtraction?
  13. I predicted July 1st. Maybe it'll be even sooner? Mid-June?
  14. Lol...never trade pitching. I mean, who? Mize? You wont get much for a pending FA. Melton? Untouchable. Flaherty? Lol...you try to trade him...at his salary and his results? He's worthless.
  15. Severe storms...probably moving out by game time. We had some real crazy winds though...
  16. Putting guys who may get on base in front of a red hot Riley...good idea.
  17. Pitching hasn't really been our problem, other than when Flaherty pitches. Scoring runs is our main issue, followed by our defense, or lack of.
  18. Its pretty sad when we consider getting Javy back will be an offensive improvement. Vierling to RF, Javy in CF and Perez to the bench?
  19. No joy in Mudville. Our basketball team got trounced in a game 7...at home!! Now, all eyes and attention are on our baseball team...they better straighten up in a hurry...no...no joy.
  20. And next year will be tough with Boston and Indy fully healthy.
  21. No, just re-seed like other sports do. The #1 seed plays the lowest remaining seed.
  22. Stupid NBA seeding. The #1 seed has to play the #4 seed and not the #8 seed who advanced. It woulda been nice facing Philly and then a NY/Cavs winner.
