I'm sure they do it clandestinely but they need to report the effect bad calls have on games ie, how much the likelihood of an outcome changes because of a bad call.

Not surprising given your moniker.

Parker was drafted in 2018 and by the end of 2022 it seemed he never would hit. His OPS was in the low 600s. Then... The curse of Alfredo Simon (-.4 WAR with the Tigers). We could be overpaying for the player we overpaid with before, all to get of Alfredo Simon. Suarez had 25.9 WAR after the Tigers.

My bet is that Carlos moves through waivers and elects to sign with the Tigers.

Malachi and Dumesnil were both signed for a couple thou below slot. Seems odd. How do you justify for example slot is say $650,000 but we are going to give you $648,000?

I concur

Yea, I dread the day when I hear LA has lured him away. I hope he's loyal beyond all reason.

Someone's revised rankings, forgot whom's, put Dumesnil as the 9th overall ranked Tiger prospect, the highest on their list from this year's draft. That is crazy to get your best prospect right off the bat in such a late round.

Yes, I think he's more likely to fall in rank in the future though not as badly as Liranzo and Rainer will rise, perhaps to a top 10 should he retain his arm strength. What luck that he was on the board at 11.

Again Law used a HOF-flavored reference to McGonnigle - "I can't believe Rogers Hornsby played a half hour from my house and I didn't know it."

What was the phrase, Singles hitters drive Chevy's while Home Run hitters drive Cadillacs.

But if you extended this recent streak over a full season, they would probably be the worse team in all of baseball history, all of it, going back to even the Cleveland Spiders.

Seems like we're always waiting for him to get his stride. Then he does. We go wow, and he hurts himself. Repeat.

I didn't know the outcome of this game until today, the day after. It's like how I used to get game results as a kid, from the next day's newspapers box score. West coast games were often finished too late to make it into print, so I had to wait two days to learn the outcome. I saw Jake had a HR and thought which one is that for him now. Only his second? Then I remembered I did the exact same thing when he got his first. I think Chris Hernandez was taken on a dare. Someone has a side bet with Fetter on whether he can fix him. That has to be the reason Tigers took him being last in line on the waivers line.

Is this a "What's wrong with this picture" quiz?
