Yeah, while I'm starting to agree, how do the Tigers feel about giving up on a 1-1 draft pick? This game is over, folks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kdog Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 Nobody is giving up on Tork. You probably have to lower his ceiling significantly now. If he can be a jag first baseman who hits 25-30 homers that would be good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think they are going to sacrifice ‘development’ for short term roster improvement. They would only go down if Harris and Hinch think that major league at bats are hurting their future. someone is going down when Ibanez comes back.

Although he's going to need to improve his defense over what we've seen so far, because if his ceiling is lower offensively, he's a lot more expendable if he cannot play the field.

That’s what this season is about now. Seeing if the rookies can develop in the majors….determine how replaceable tork is if he hits like a jag. meanwhile, the pitching will be fine aside from a few blips like the 9th inning.

Whoever it is, I bet he has better numbers than Tork does. A black hole in the middle of the lineup leads to a lot of low scores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hiura is a 4-A player who will hit 3 home runs in the first week and then crater into what he is. How do you think Scott Harris, the captain of lower expectations and development, is going to handle it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
