I was just wondering how much they moved up in a weekend. Small sample sizes change very quickly. Their pitching was only 20th best? An early season good weekend prolly makes them better.
Did Perez even get a hit? ππ
Is the Tiger pitching moving up in their rankings now after only giving up 3 runs this weekend? I still say Detroit has a top 5 pitching staff (potential).
He may struggle at times this season, most hitters have cold stretches. Especially young players who aren't used to playing such a long season. Many times, they wear down. Keeping slumps as short as possible is key, don't be like Riley.
Having no hit stuff and actually getting a no hitter are totally different things. Having no hit stuff means you're a very good pitcher with really good stuff. Getting an actual no hitter takes a bit of luck. Tork catches that foul pop up and we're still anxious...but Skubal has no hit stuff.
Over here in the Detroit area,there was a huge Arab crowd who refused to vote for Harris because they thought they were supporting Palestine. Wow, did they screw up...
"Others acknowledge Harrisβs efforts but add that it is not enough to win over Arab American and Muslim voters angry with the U.S. support for the Israeli government."

Remember how MAGA and Independents voted Trump because he was supposed to be better for the economy? And how he would bring world peace? Maybe it was just more Trump lies? We should have known. (Many people did, we were all warned)
Exactly this. I think Stevie has already had a couple/few extra years because of who he is. I admit, I was excited by his hiring, especially with his success in Tampa Bay. He did start out with a bare cupboard in Detroit and he had some bad draft luck but...enough is enough.
