SoCalTiger Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 As a multiple decade Tiger fan I admit my patience is worn out. I don’t like commenting negatively and I do like Scot Harris and support playing young players with potential but the clown show and blowouts have to stop. Yes only two games but they were really ugly and the tv crew is simply terrible. Alas I will be watching ..not listening…with fingers crossed. Or maybe it’s time to just listen to the radio. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenacious D Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 it's really hard to gauge how good this team is or how enjoyable this season will be, especially after two games against a good team. but I can't fault fans for being cynical, especially after the expectations everyone had going into last season only to experience the train wreck which was the 2022 season (by far, the least enjoyable season in my lifetime). we really did very little to improve the offense--management's hands were tied to some degree, but it seems like we are counting on big improvements and turnarounds, which could happen. The team is lacking in likable identities--I think Greene and Tork can be those guys, but they have to achieve some success for that to happen. Miggy is a shell of himself and both Baez and Schoop are extremely unlikable. Everyone else is kind of meh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just need more of a sample size to readjust priors... it's a 162 game season, not 17 like the NFL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben9753 Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 A shame they waited 3 or four years to long to can Avila. And if Torkelson and Jobe don’t pan out… oh boy. It’ll set us back another four years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hongbit Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 They are entering the late Don Zimmer into the Rays Hall of Fame. It took a while to clean up the mess on the field after they had 3 generations of Zimmers beating the shit out of a life size Pedro Martinez piñata. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
