  1. Put a little blush on his cheeks and they could be twins...
  2. Olson looks sharp today. 36 pitches thru 4 innings, 9 pitches per inning. Flashing leather behind him helps.
  3. Oscar Gonzalez....a big dude. Very big...6'5" and 240 lbs.
  4. Well, Hart is on pace to throw 234 pitches. 😁
  5. OK, Olson, there's your run. Protect it.
  6. Later in the afternoon. 4 o'clock or so. Long after we win...
  7. One of these bottom feeders had to win. May as well make it kinda exciting;
  8. We should be able to get Bert his 6 runs against Hart. He's not very good;
  9. Oh sure....ignore the future. I told my neighbor the same thing, I don't care about tomorrow, which may never come for some of us, I'm more concerned about the present. Like...a lefty on the mound against us today. Even if he DOES have an elevated ERA. 😏
  10. While I agree, I just don't see the Tigers paying him what may be the going rate. Keep him and maybe contend for a deep playoff run next season and then let him walk or trade him in the off-season or at the trade deadline? It looks like those may be our options. But now, let's discuss Greene's future. When does he become a FA? 😅
  11. I say when you talk about that kind of money, the decision isn't on Harris. And IMO, I wouldn't blame the Tigers for either letting Skubal walk or trading him. Work the Mets and Phillies against each other. That would be where Harris and his scouts come in, identifying the talent. And getting us quality prospects.
  12. Yeah, I remember Norris was the bigger prospect at the time. Did Al Avila make that trade? If so, it must have been his best trade. Even if by accident. A broken clock or a blind squirrel type of thing.
  13. Agreed. The NL West is going to be a super heavyweight fight til the end. Arizona is 14-9 and in 4th place. Jeeezzz.
  14. Can't let SD have a lead in late innings. They really are playing very good....right now. But it's a long summer, get back to us in September.
  15. I was watching SD in their Sunday night game against Houston. Their closer doesn't give up runs. Great job by Flaherty tonight. He would be a winner in most nights.
  16. Well, of course. But that really is a next year problem. Do you see this Tiger management team offering Boras $30 to $35 million per for 6 or 7 years? I don't see it but you never know. Skubal may give us a discount. After all, how much money does a guy need, 🤣🤣
  17. Not gonna get a 1st for him if a huge contract is needed. A rebuilding team wouldn't go that route and trading him to a contender could come back to bite us.
  18. He's under team control thru next year? The money is crazy, IMO. The Tigers know how much they'll offer him, if he turns them down, they gotta move him by the 2026 trade deadline. The comp pick wouldn't be enough.... compensation.
  19. Going into the playoffs. Barkley called him Wade Cunningham. Or it may have been Shaq? Shaq did say at halftime last night that if a brawl broke out, he would stay away from Duren. He said "Now THAT'S a man." Lmao....
  20. Vest may be able to go, if absolutely necessary. He only threw 10 pitches yesterday. He had Sunday off but he did throw 22 pitches Saturday. But yeah, he also pitched 3 out of the last 4. Hinch prolly won't use him. Taking 2 of 3 from SD would be huge. That's a real solid ballclub.
  21. I'm rewatching the national broadcast after watching Blaha last night and Payne has 3 fouls in the first quarter. Foul trouble and NY went away from him.
