RandyMarsh Posted August 18, 2023 Posted August 18, 2023 (edited) Who was the best Tiger that played for Cleveland previously? Colavito obviously comes to mind along with V-Mart and Jhonny Peralta. Any others? Edited August 18, 2023 by RandyMarsh Quote

Tigermojo Posted August 18, 2023 Posted August 18, 2023 Why try to go first to third on a hit to left field? Quote

RandyMarsh Posted August 19, 2023 Posted August 19, 2023 Shep and CMo talking about the guy on the Guardians being a high pick but not panning out thus far and CMO talks about how not all high drafts work out in baseball(duh) made me think of a tidbit I read the other day and that's that out of the 2016, 17 and 18 drafts there have only been 1 All Star total and that was Trevor Rogers of the Marlins and even he hasn't been good outside of that AS season. Those guys are all still young but crazy to think that this many years later there still has only been 1. Quote
Adullin Posted August 19, 2023 Posted August 19, 2023 Hmmmm another game another strike called 3 inches off the plate low. Quote

Here's something that was drilled into all of us when we were 14: never, ever get thrown out at third base when there are 0 out, or 2 out. Never. Especially 2 out...what are you going to do, score on a sac fly? These guys are not fundamentally sound, not well coached. And on top of that, to be thrown out at third by the left fielder? I bet that more than half of these guys play an entire career without that happening. Edited August 19, 2023 by Jim Cowan 1 Quote
TigersForever1256 Posted August 19, 2023 Posted August 19, 2023 (edited) What I'm getting a little peeved at is AJ's obsession with L/R (micro-managing a liiiiite too far) ABs. The other day he had Shorty PH in the 4th! and today PH Vierling for Baddoo. Edited August 19, 2023 by TigersForever1256 1 Quote

So we sat almost behind the plate at 5/3 tonight and twice when an Omaha player asked for an appeal on a called strike, it was overturned and called a ball, and then he struck out anyway. Was interested to see the challenge system work though. I don't really like it. Suddenly the game stops and your not sure why if you missed someone tap their helmet (the appeal signal), then 15 sec of mill and dawdle waiting for the call. I get the idea that the league doesn't immediately want the umps to lose their practice calling balls and strikes if you give them every call electronically, but it would be a better fan experience that way.

Eddys Leonard guilty at Toledo tonight. Quote

I didn't mind it as much IF Carpenter saw the LF being lax the play. The throw was a wiffle ball out, it was actually at Carpenter rather than 3B. So, I think there was a little bit of fluke on the tag out because it was on the money when it wasn't on the money. The other thing is that these are both pretty brutal offenses but Wentz was on the mound. Advantage, Cleveland. So, Detroit had to take some risks somewhere along the line. As it turned out, they were basically shut out. Tough to assume Carpenter gets driven in from 2B with 2 out and bottom half of the lineup at the plate. Quote
Tigeraholic1 Posted August 19, 2023 Posted August 19, 2023 Cisnero has reached Dan Campbell turd level. I really think it’s time to move on. Quote
