It's also fun to see what a player development department that knows what the hell it is doing can do with raw talent basically anyone can pick. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way it take until 2026 to reach the bigs for that stuff unless your assuming it take a year or so at that level to be a #2. Personally I think arms only last so long so why wait. He has 3 pitches now. Maybe wait until June to keep a year of control. Not to be irrational, which I am about to be 😃 , Sign JD and bring up Jobe. The Central is really weak. And with Skubal and Jobe in short series....is it 2006 or 2024 ? 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyMarsh Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Barring injury it feels almost certain that Jobe will be up at some point later this year even if its just for a start or 2 and next year he should be entrenched in the rotation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motor City Sonics Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 I know he wasn't facing major leaguers, but DAYAM, they probably wouldn't hit him either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sports_Freak Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 That's the 1st time I saw Jackson Jobe. Painting the outside black at 102 MPH. Was that radar gun right? Oh my, stay healthy young man!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say 2026 because I figure Jobe played only as high as a sniff of AA last year, so I figure he's going to start at AA and maybe some AAA this year, and then start at AAA with maybe a mid- to late-season callup next year. So by the time Spring 2026 rolls around, he'll be a solid #2 to Tarik Skubal, who will be the reigning two-time Cy Young winner with a World Series MVP ring and under control for two more years after that. (Hey, a boy can dream, can't he?) Now, I could be all wet on Jobe's timeline, and maybe they will feel in short order that he is so advanced, they can't keep him down any longer. So i can't reject out-of-hand the idea that we will see him in Detroit sometime this season. We don't know how this front office will handle young hotshot advancement because we haven't seen them get that opportunity yet. But I do think they will make ultra-certain that when it's time, he will be stepping into a situation in which he will succeed, and not be thrown in over his head while we cross our fingers and wish upon a star. We don't need a repeat of the TORK! callup debacle. As for J.D.: no room for him at the inn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not impressed with the moves Harris didn't make. Maybe he wasn't allowed to spend the Cabrera money that we all hoped would be spent on some professional hitters. But at least he got us a player who's good at.....getting hit by pitches. Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol I think we have enough latent talent in the organization right now that I feel confident they can take another year to figure out who can stick and who can go, and at whichever positions they fall short, they can backfill through the marketplace. I think I have a handle on what their plan is, and I like the approach. I'm an old man, but I think I have another year for them to work through the process. Besides: they just might surprise us all this year with what they have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anybody could have picked him, but a lot of fans didn't like the pick. If he succeeds, whoever was responsible for the pick deserves a lot of credit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the Lions improvement, it puts more pressure on the Tigers to win. Our division is so weak... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are seeing that the pitching could be very good and they can catch the ball well enough but with all the young hitters the run scoring could be anything from terrible to average. If they get average, they can be a good team, but so far this spring it's hard to have a lot of confidence that are going to get close to average. Several regulars that haven't shown much so far have 2 more weeks to get their act together. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
