With Javy coming back perhaps it's time to jettison Outman and even Vierling and bring up Clark for a potential spark. I like Vierling with his versatility but his career ops is .687 and ops+ is 91, and both of those would be much lower without 2024. Outman's highest ops+ at any stop since 2023 has been 52. Highest!

KC. Thorn. Side. Detroit

No jinx. Clev and CWS also lost today. This is going to happen

Well that sucks. Nap time

Dang, Sixers leap over Detroit. Adding Brown and LbJ is quite an off season

Seattle can get much more than Vierling for Hancock. If anything, I'd see him as part of a package for Skubal. Hancock and a hi bat prospect for Skubal.

I agree.......except the shiny bud is more of a periwinkle hue

I think 52 seems about right. That's assuming JD is back and no blockbusters occur

In 97 rookie league games to date CRod has 19 HR and 18 SB and an ops of .885. Doesn't turn 19 until January. Too many Ks but so far I'd say he is progressing well

I wonder if Lance Parish ate the baby tiger after that photo shoot

I like Daniella. Not as much as Johnnie, but she's good at what she does in my opinion. She said she was raised in Michigan and has always been a Tigers fan and I think she meshes well with the other broadcasters. Like others posted, she wasn't hired to appeal to us old f arts. Social media is now part of the baseball world. That, and having to subscribe to 14 streaming sites to take in every game

Absolutely!

When Kyle Tucker can get 60 mil/year, yeah, the Tigers aren't bringing in any top tier free agents. Valdez is about asking as I see them going

Working late tonight. Looks like I picked a good one to miss

Whether in the race or not, I still think it comes down to the haul. If Harris gets blown away with a trade I think he takes it. If the offers are a top 100 plus 2 mid tier, I believe he stays

Oh I disagree! Dingler has a children's story hero vibe to it. Even better than the Electric Company's "Adventures of Letterman" - "able to scale a capital T in a single bound!" Detroit's darling Dillon Dingler dazzles and destroys those Damn Dodgers!!!

Remember how lost Dingler looked at the plate his first stint in the bigs? 2 years later and this guy has that clubhouse "rock" vibe, something I felt Freehan had.

Liranzo seems to have a similar trajectory as Dingler. He struggles after advancing then seems to figure it out. Only this appears to be stalling at AA

Presti is on the nba gm Mt Rushmore.

Not blowing smoke at all. I don't think SD would do it, but they do have other good arms in the pen. They need bats though. Their owner does like to make a splash.

I wonder how many players have had 30 HR / 100 RBI seasons in both leagues. I was sad to see him get traded. I saw a couple of his Tiger dingers in person

I had to watch after it ended. Skubal's stuff was just ridiculous. And when did Dingler become Ron Hunt (RIP) 2.0?

Tarik Skubal straight up for Mason Miller. I doubt SD would do it, but I would entertain it if I were Harris. Then try to retain Mize and hope most of Melton, Jobe, Mize and eventually Olson remain healthy going forward. And it addresses their biggest need for the remainder of 2026

Reminiscent of Trader Jack offering Jerry West the Pistons entire roster for the rights to their 1st round draft pick Magic Johnson

Daniella is quite good at what she does.
