  1. So when you spend $10,000-$20,000 on a seat, I guess they give you a rain slicker that’s a good deal.
  2. Holy heck, even Jake got a double
  3. People pulling on their rain Slickers
  4. Sofa King Great!
  5. I love it when a plan comes together
  6. This just came up on my YouTube feed so during the rain delay, it might give you something to do.
  7. Here comes the tarp.
  8. Raining? No tarp on the field right now at least.
  9. By the way, in case you’re into this kind of thing, the next time the Tigers are on Apple TV they will be playing the Mariners at home on July 11.
  10. Totally. Just initially, BP days or BP openers strike me on the face of it — which is often deceptive — as operating out of an admission of weakness rather than an affirmation of strength, but I know this is not logical and I need to get over it. It is in fact, very smart. Actually, what the Tigers are doing is like in the American Revolution where we at times wore down the British troops in something resembling guerrilla warfare by refusing to fight the enemy on their terms instead fought them on our own where these tactics were a part of a larger strategy. So BP days or openers are great. I just wish they weren’t necessary.
  11. I can’t see any practical reason aside from sentimentality to acquire JV. He’s been gone for eight years. That’s a lot of water under the bridge. I still have affection for the guy, but he doesn’t seem like one of our own anymore. But if he entered the Hall of Fame as an Astro, it would be very painful. A blank cap would be better and probably more appropriate.
  12. Yeah, I guess we do have five guys so the opener bullpen guy is just a new standard thing. Probably for Montero and Gipson Long.
  13. I’m suffering from pitching chaos fatigue. What is demanded of pitchers now blows their arms out. You can’t demand that they stop throwing so hard or throwing sliders. Expanding the roster so you have more relievers is a Band-Aid solution but I don’t know if there is any solution.
  14. Carlos Peña was telling us how impressed he was with the Royals after that series in KC and he thought the Tigers really had to beware of them. And you know the Royals gave us some scares in that series. But they’ve really been skidding lately.
  15. Ice towels for Tarik between innings, clean jersey’s. I didn’t know they did that.
  16. Wow, Daniella looks like a munchkin from the Wizard of Oz standing next to Parker
  17. 11 Pitch First out. Man.
  18. Hey thank you I will scroll back and watch that.
  19. What inning was JK Simmons on with the boys? I’ve been doing other stuff and not able to follow the game much.
  20. A second walk? A second walk? I give up! I’m done! I’m out!
