  1. I agree. I thought for sure Jaymo would be a victim of the salary cap. The one player the Lions could sacrifice. Extend Branch and Hutch. And LaPorta should be an easy extension.
  2. Yeah, it would be nice if we were going for a sweep tomorrow. 😁
  3. An All Star? He won't be here next season and he will be missed.
  4. Dan says the Tigers lead baseball in 3 run home runs. Amazing...
  5. I would say he lucked out. Using the back end of the bullpen that was totally rested after a day off with Skubal going tomorrow?
  6. Even a suggestion of that sends a horrible message to the fans (35,000 in attendance) who paid a lot of money to go to that game to see their team win. It's like...we don't care if we lose, as long as we find a pitcher who performs well against a last place team. Yeah, throw that same pitcher in New York next week against the Yankees and see what happens. It won't be pretty. But hey...our manager doesn't care if a AAA pitcher loses that game, right? I guess I don't see the logic in using Bailey Horn (who???) and Keider Montero in a game when there's a tight race to get a first round bye. It would be a shame if we end up tied with Toronto or a game back of Houston.
  7. Hinch always says just win today. Stack wins and the standings will take care of itself. Skubal pitches today and we probably won't need as many BP arms. He keeps using these Toledo pitchers like it's a spring training tryout...saving his better arms for some distant day in the future? Maybe the Tigers will have a huge lead today and he can burn all of his better arms. Face it, his horrible use of his bullpen lost the Friday game for us.
  8. So Seattle and Houston lost last night. Even with our loss, isn't the bye or Home Field magic number down?
  9. I think Amazon will be delivering products first. Seriously...I could see it happening.
  10. Tigers bullpen gives up 3 runs. Pitchers that weren't here last week.
  11. Hinch is watching football and using Toledo arms in a tie/one run game. With a rested bullpen. I don't understand it...why have a tryout during critical games? It's a 3 run game now and he'll burn his better arms.
  12. No, stand in 1st base until somebody hits a ground ball. Against one of the easiest pitcher/catcher combos to run against.
  13. Entire rested bullpen and he uses another AAA for multiple innings.
  14. I'm losing confidence in Flaherty. What the hell is wrong with him?
  15. On the replay, even Dingler flinched, like watching a car crash. What a bizarre play.
  16. Baseball...you say you've seen it all? Yeah, watch this.
  17. September 5th is Parker Meadows Day!
  18. Fanduel Sports app is unwatchable on my Roku. The app works perfect on my phone. Football on the big screen, baseball on the phone. Opposite of what I wanted but...oh well.
  19. Anyone else's video of the game messing up?
  20. It's a bit confusing when there are multiple teams involved. A combination of 17 Tiger wins and Houston losses gets us a 1st round bye? Right now Toronto is 1/2 game ahead of us and they have the tiebreaker. So they're a game and half up. The division seems pretty safe, but yeah, having a bye and home field advantage would be nice. At least for the ALDS.
  21. And then we play the Yankees, in NY. And they are also playing very good.
  22. Yeah, I don't remember those. But I really don't want to take player emotions out of the game.
