  1. 14 strikeouts and 3 errors won't win you many games. I guess I'm glad I forgot it was a day game.
  2. When we get all our injured players back next season and our hitters remember how to hit, we're a playoff team. Yeah, book it.
  3. And the jury is still out on the Lions. Just giving them credit for a GM and coach who may win isn't good enough. But their history isn't something to strive for. SOT? 🤣🤣
  4. Very true. I just really don't want to hear anything about a 3 to 5 year rebuild. I'm getting too old for this crap. 😁
  5. I don't want to copy a single thing from the worse franchise in all of sports. Copy the Lions? If that's the best Chris can do, sell the team now.
  6. Often times, a new GM would want to bring in his hand picked managers, coaches and players. I would say Hinch is safe but some of Avila's draft choices may be gone. It's never good to have an unstable front office. What if Chris finds someone worse than Avila? We may have 5 to 7 years of misery.
  7. Yeah, that 3-13-1 record last season is something the Tigers should strive for.
  8. Is DD looking for a job? <ducks>
  9. Depends on the situation. There are many times, if you're in FG range, that you have to take the points.
  10. Hard Knocks has taken my excitement to a whole new level. I'm not drinking the blue Kool-aid....I'm bathing in it..😅
  11. No, Torkelson is Mike Hessman, the all time MiLB HR hitter. 😁
  12. Is Daniel Norris back with the Tigers? I missed that fact, just saw in the Free Press that he's in Toledo?
  13. Once they started pitching to him like they did Brandon Inge, he would be finished. 🤣🤣
  14. But...but....he throws really, really hard. He doesn't pitch, he throws. Really hard.
  15. I remember Leyland saying once that if you keep marching pitchers out there, eventually one will have an off-day and give up multiple runs. He was/is correct.
  16. I was hoping for an announcement...Al Avila moving up in the FO and the new GM....Alan Trammell.
  17. So, I can use a magic marker and draw #1 on a blank Tiger uniform and then say it's a Lou Whitaker All-Star jersey? 😆😆
  18. Yeah, I would hope it's just young arms pitching at max effort on every pitch. Well be getting Turnbull back next season and the only good thing about the SP injuries, it gave us the chance to find a deeper pool of talent than I thought they even had. With the exception of Hill...he's just a much too young kid.
  19. Pitching wasn't their problem this season, it was the entire line-up slumping. And why in the world would we possibly want to get another outfielder? We already need to clear out several from the roster. We have Carpenter coming in too. Just a glut of underperforming or unproven outfielders already.
  20. Getting ris of Grossman and Hill is addition by subtraction. We still have about 7 outfielders or so? Prolly 5 of them could go, too. But I liked keeping the others arms. Jimenez looks like he finally figured it out and Soto is still under team control for a few years. These guys may have more value in the winter and could be moved then.
  21. And extended him for 2 years or so.
  22. No, the main question is who would replace him? Tram?
  23. Why would he? Because he hit HR #500 there?
  24. Every day is a bullpen game with this team. Many times, they hold the lead. But mostly, there's no lead to hold. Have the Tigers ever had a season without a single complete game?
