Does the 27th man have to be a pitcher? Maeda was supposed to go today and Flaherty tomorrow. Stick with that rotation and use the 27th man as a catcher?

I don't get it.
-
Rainout.

Detroit quickly changed their reputation as a cute loser to a winning culture. I have never seen a team change their reputation so quickly.
-
But it sounds better that we were trolling SF. 😆
-
Yup. Green Bay finished the season 6-2, smoked Dallas IN Dallas and then gave SF a scare. Love looks like the real deal. I'm glad the Lions are better...
-
I didn't know they gave him an error on that play. I remember thinking it was Meadows fault, a CF is supposed to take charge.
-
The first error Perez makes in the OF will have posters calling for his head. 😅😅
-
Agreed. Especially with how well their pitching is doing. It was encouraging to see Meadows use the opposite field. Going the other way or bunting can get players out of a slump, sometimes. I've been waiting for Meadows to lay down a bunt, use his natural speed.

I say this every year when a guy comes up from Toledo and has a bit of success...some players are better at the ML level for a variety of reasons. Better field conditions, pitchers more around the plate, better lighting, less travel and better nutrition. It makes sense if true.
-
Meadows could really make a difference if he could only get on base more consistently. He would be an excellent leadoff hitter. As it is, how about Perez hitting leadoff? I don't like Greene leading off because no matter when he bats, there are black holes hitting before him. I would rather see guys on base for him. Especially if Tork keeps tanking.

But not a winning April. 13-12 in April with 2 games to go.
-
KC is very, very scrappy. They should win a lot of games with that team speed. It really puts pressure on the fielders.
-
Yeah, I think I remember that now. So Skubal works up the list even more of LH pitchers drafted and developed by Detroit. And there's a lot of years between Lolich and Skubal.
-
Great list. I should have been more specific....pitchers drafted and developed by Detroit. Thompson, Robertson and then Skubal. And Skubal moving on up!
-
The Lions signed some UDFA players; https://www.si.com/nfl/lions/lions-2024-undrafted-free-agent-tracker
-
We should have some decent depth on our practice squad.
-
Canha schools Tork on how to play 1st base.
-
Is Skubal our best LH starting pitcher since Mickey Lolich?
-
Bally showing the highlights of how Jobe ans Max Clark are doing in Erie is must-see-TV. Their future looks very bright. I sure hope they're not rushed.
-
And his aggressiveness, all season long, makes Campbell a fan favorite. I read somewhere that more teams should play the percentages and go for it on 4th downs. I love him doing it!
-
Short, routine throw and he threw it 5 feet wide of Mize. Absolutely no excuse.
-
It felt like the Tigers should have been down big in the first few innings. KC totally outplayed us and we were bumbling around. But again, a late comeback and we pull one out. 4 errors in a win is pretty rare. But I like our chances tomorrow to win the series. Skubal is a beast!

True...Monroe irritates me.
