Sounds like something Evan Petzold would dream up.

True though this may be, it doesn't mean we have to liquidate top prospects for two months of Suarez. If Suarez were the missing piece we need, or maybe one of two missing pieces we need, I'd be a lot more open to paying good money to get him.

It doesn't escape my notice that the only people I've seen strongly suggest a Tigers/Suarez trade are Nightingale and Feinsand, national guys who possibly have their own agendas. Outside of people like Shawn Windsor citing them as sources, the only thing I have heard a local guy say about this is Cody saying it's unlikely.

My guess is that they audited his communications and found some smoking gun already. I also find it interesting that Baseball has gotten so far out so far in front of this story, over a month before its reolution. Seems to me that were Clase a relatively isolated incident, they would go through the investigation of him on background and out of public view. Instead, the situation is not even resolved and already we know. That probably means either the Clase situation is already very well known and liable to come out through some other source, or that the gambling rot among players is so deep that Baseball is trying to get control of the situation before it completely blows up in their faces and jeopardizes their billions in gambling partnership money.

That's really embarrassing, like, world-stage embarrassing. As is this:

Wow so much for being happy with the win yesterday

And now we know why we traded for Paddack.

Yeah too bad Harris couldn’t get anything more done before the deadline

Zero chance Clase was coming here even if Cleveland had him on the block, which itself I doubt.

I am wondering how deep the gambling rot among players must be if Baseball is getting out in front of the overall story like this.

And not even mostly because of his performance

I can attest to this. Then again, I was nine.

No, Hinch is simply trying to manage the workloads of his better relievers by tasking the front of his bullpen with holding onto ten-run and seven-run leads in the ninth inning, ffs.

Man, Ernie Clement sure bailed us out by swinging at the ball four up around his eyes. Just a reminder that ****-ups happen on both sides.

Fun fact: Luke Jackson has made $21 million during his career.

Although to your point, a ten-run lead going into the ninth has never felt so tenuous.

Hopefully so have the Tigers.

You’re exaggerating. It’s at least 90%.

The difference between Meadows and Sweeney is that the former is a plus-plus defender and the latter is struggling in all aspects of the game.

Pocketing bribes? That’s my best off the cuff guess.

As well as any number of state houses that are only too willing to do Trump’s bidding and rush-gerrymander electoral maps before the mid-terms.

As of July, 2025. I don't think the Trump regime is done.

The striking out 125 times number is a clue, which basically eliminates just about every team from before 2005.

Oh my god a Gleybomb

So MAGA gets voted out, then they get splintered? Given their open intention to game the system to undermine democracy, that first part will be tricky enough.
