LAD 2025 - 117-45

Oh-fer 2025 so far

I've long hated Teoscar.

I may try to get to the game tomorrow. Haven't been to a game in a few years

And just think - next off season they'll add Kyle Tucker, Bregman and the Japanese player with huge HR power.

I'm surprised Barry Bonds only did once. His BB numbers are crazy

On mlb.tv the blackout ends after 90 minutes post game. Probably will have a cigar rather than watch the loss.

Orioles hit 6 home runs today

Looks like I'm watching the sweet 16 tonight

Blacked out on mlb.tv? Damn!

Whatever happened to Casper Wells? I heard he was friendly but a little spooky.

Very cool about Mickey! I have a friend who shot pool with Fidrych, said he was very friendly. I played high school basketball with Loy Vaught

I think Max Clark will be bringing similar spirit when he arrives

I realize it's largely injury related, but too much of the position player roster seems AAAAish to me. I'm hopeful for 85 wins, but won't be surprised by 75. If pitching, Greene and Carpenter stay healthy, more likely closer to 85.

I once played checkers with Mickey Stanley at his place near the Thornapple River. I was friends with one of his nephews

That sounds about right. Detroit's strength is obviously pitching. Hopefully 5 years from now that looks much different

Trailing 7-0 into the 9th, Philly scores 8 to win. Means nothing, but always get a little joy when the Yankees take a punch https://www.espn.com/mlb/game/_/gameId/401704569/phillies-yankees

Drummond again showing love for the Pistons and Cade. I looked up his stats and he is only 31. That seems crazy to me. He's been in the league 32 years https://www.si.com/nba/pistons/news/former-detroit-pistons-star-shows-love-cade-cunningham-01jpv4az14m5

Only people over 50 would get that

Woo hoo!

Through 5, Greene with a dinger. Tork 2-2 and a bb. Mize gave up 2 in 4.2

Nothing against Craig, but his voice always seems as if he has a frog in his throat. Like nails on a chalkboard to me. Since I have mlb.tv I would watch the opposing team's broadcasts. Shep and Monroe were just plain annoying to me. As were Shep and Morris. I thought they sucked, and was not surprised when Detroit's broadcasts were rated inferior. I like Gibby, but I don't think he fits as an analyst commentator. God speed to him. Keep him around. He is an iconic Tiger

Jung optioned to Toledo after a 4-33 spring. So it's likely Ibanez and McKinstry at 3rd to start the year

But yesterday the moon was blood red. Coincidence?

What's Jacoby Jones up to? Victor Reyes? I'm obviously joking but I did look up Reyes and he had 202 hits, 111 RBI and a .905 ops in KBO last year.
