  1. I have no idea what Ibanez was thinking there. You can't run that far on a steal attempt and then put on the brakes.
  2. The Cure commercials are literally the worst. They annoy me more than all the commercials talking about toe fungus and constipation relief combined.
  3. I don't think we can say what a team would or wouldn't be willing to trade, especially if their intention was to sign Skubal long term and were looking to get a hold of him a year earlier. I think there's certainly a deal out there that both teams would find appealing.
  4. I would think that depends on the return. If the Tigers could trade Skubal before next season for a #2 starter and an every day bat, both under contract for the next few seasons, wouldn't that actually make the team better?
  5. They'd only be trading for a year of Skubal so I don't see why any team would be out of the running.
  6. That's the point, dude doesn't even know where he's going. Either that or he's planning on returning Alaska to Vlad.
  7. Of course they had the room stacked with right wing media during Trump's rambling new conference so nobody could actually ask real questions.
  8. So Trump just said he's going to Russia on Friday to see Putin. 😬
  9. I have two IRA's with Vanguard and I just don't see them doing anything stupid that would put my money at risk.
  10. Has a team in contention for the post season ever traded a superstar they knew wouldn't be returning to the team the following season? Imagine if we get to the trade deadline next year and the Tigers are leading the division. Is there any chance the Tigers would trade Skubal to a NL team if the return was good enough? Sounds wild, but imagine a team being willing to give you a couple top prospects.
  11. I was thinking more like the Bregman situation. Once the details of the Tigers offer were made public, I don't know anyone who was still howling about not signing him.
  12. Why is there almost no news about the head of the IRS getting canned? There has to be something there and I'm guessing it has to do with Trump wanting access to something and being told no.
  13. I think the Tigers have to make the offer or the fan base is going to go nuts. If the Tigers offer him 8/300 and he turns it down, I think most fans are going to accept that they did all they could to try and keep him.
  14. Did Javy tweak something? Looked like a grimace as he was running home.
  15. The most I could ever see the Tigers offering Skubal would be 8 years/300 million and that even seems like a stretch. If he stays healthy and continues putting up the stats, I see one of the big market teams giving him 10 years/400 million so I don't think there's a chance in hell the Tigers retain his services beyond next season.
  16. Biggest win of the season so far.
  17. Watching the replay, his head really snapped back. Hopefully he just got knocked cold and they're taking extra precautions due to it being a head/neck impact.
  18. Leyland has looked the same for the last 40 years.
  19. I don't get why MLB doesn't have someone come out with a tablet between innings to show the ump any problematic calls. Seems like it would help the umps and they would probably even appreciate the input.
  20. Calling it now, if the Tigers lose tonight, they lose the division.
  21. The Comedy Central executives have to be sweating. 🤣
  22. Absolutely the politicians shouldn't have a say, I've already said that. As for the lawyers, there's no way that's ever going to happen and these maps are always going to be challenged in court. Just another reason to support my idea of eliminating congressional districts all together. 🤔
  23. The Texas map sucks and they want to make it suck even more, I'm not defending what they're doing at all. My point has been that independent redistricting doesn't seem to really work, at least in California's case. We seem to be doing pretty well with it in Michigan but I think in our case, there isn't nearly as much overlap of Democrat and Republican voters and there are a lot fewer pieces of pie to cut up.
