    Very fun game to watch. Love all that Meadows can bring. He's like 6'5" and that full-stretch catch was one of the best I've seen in many years. Watching Dodgers vs As now. That Flaherty fella is pretty good. Like to see the Tigers add some pitchers like him

    Good to stay hopeful, but that list is out of 600+ prospects traded. And it depends on how one defines "impact player." I'm usually more able to see potential and stay positive. Having a bit of fan fatigue right now and that's clouding my optimism.

    Bottom quadrant for far too long. Comtemplating writing a book of haiku to describe life as a Detroit sports fan over the past decade

    One of my first Tigers memories. I was 6 years old.

    Right now they have 8th worst record. Have a hunch Toronto will pass them up and they'll be 7th or perhaps worse. Really sucks that once again I start thinking mostly about the draft pick. I have rebuild fatigue.

    He got into an all-star zone post all-star game last season. He seems to be in another zone right now. Ripping the ball. Extreme streak hitter. I don't know.....regardless, it's good to see him making consistent, hard contact again

    I have a T206 Merkle. He has a glove in the pic, not a bat. Can't tell if he is bonerfide

    Orioles called up Mayo. I don't recall a team ever being this stacked with young talent.

    Going to be tough to watch the final 50

    Love to see a season of health for Greene and Carpenter

    The thread police, they live inside of my head I predict det goes 20-33 the rest of the way to finish 72-90

    DD understands this better than most

    I see Baltimore optioned Kjerstad again. Limited sample, but his ops+ this year is 129, and he is 25. Would have liked to see him in Detroit.....oh well

    Regarding Leyland's run, while it is true they never won 100 or a WS, I believe the Tigers had the best overall W-L record from 2006-2014. I've been a fan since Campy threw his bat at Lagrow and endured several rebuilds. Imho that stretch from 2006-2014 was an elite stretch. Every season I felt they had a chance to win it all. Damn Big Papi!

    Not sure if anyone else saw a sobering stat on mlbtv - over the past decade approx 600 prospects have been traded. About 11% of them have been contributors at the mlb level, and 3% have been impact players. Looks like the rebuild will take at least 2-3 more years. Been a fan for 52 years, but fan fatigue has set in

    When ChiSox won that first field of dreams game, I recall thinking they were poised for several years of contention. Jimenez, Anderson and others seemed to fall off of a cliff.

    53 games left to play. I'll predict 20-33, and that might be optimistic. Wonder what Daniel Norris is up to these days?

    I'm still pissed about losing Benji
