I’d like to see Carp join the party here.

JHM's OPS is still buoyed by his walk rate, but his contact rate is pushing the Mendoza line.

yeah - you wouldn't usually take the odds of the Tigers having 3 HR against a RHP and Carpenter not being one.

I’m a genius. I’m Nostradamus. 

[gehringer_2]

well there you go!

Looks like we are running out of excuses for platooning Carpenter.  That’s 2 vs LHPs already

JHen having a rough day.

This is an exciting development. I hope there’s no regression to the mean.

Carpenter who could play every day would be a huge add.

They should put 27 8x10 color glossy pictures with circles and arrows and paragraph on the back of each on one of that Carp home run.

and causing a disturbance.  

[Tigermojo]

I go for a drive and the fireworks start. Dan made sure I didn't miss any excitement.

No D in Keith

[monkeytargets39]

Dolt Keith

[gehringer_2]

87  pitches on a cold day - is that going to be it?

[monkeytargets39]

His pitch count is getting up there but Skubal throwing a shutout vs New York would be wonderful

[romad1]

Is McKinstry's walk up "Pump It Up"? 

[RatkoVarda]

McKinstry - All Star starter or reserve?

[monkeytargets39]

McStinky is on fire

[ben9753]

Too early to start The Zach McKinstry Appreciation thread?

Sir Zach McKinstry OBE. He’s more than just on fire, he is fire  

[romad1]

Sweeney walk up to Jimmy Buffett?  Oh, that's a strike against him.  That's your granddad's music son.

we wish we had British Empire honorifics in the states.   

[gehringer_2]

Skubal with a bunch of 2-0 counts but zero walks.

[romad1]
