I guess it’s not Minute Maid Park anymore. I read that by mutual agreement the naming rights that were supposed to continue through 2029 were abruptly discontinued in February of this year.  

I find myself not believing hardly anything on the Internet anymore, but what I read was that since Coca-Cola owns Minute Maid they’re trying to make all naming rights for things like this Georgia specific.

The Tigers need to exert this level of control over their stadium naming rights.  How about the Law Offices of Joumana Kayrouz, P.L.L.C. stadium?

Mike Morse’s mom and The Bernsteins may have something to say about that.

Replace the Little Caesar’s glove hole in the left field bullpen with a giant Beth Bernstein face.  If a Tiger hits a home run into her mouth hole everyone in the stadium gets a free Mistrial Guarantee Card for their next DWI charge.

ESPN story that Altuve doesn't want to lead off  - ostensibly because he he's not ready to hit after running in from the OF in the 1st ...whatever you say Jose....🙄.

I just saw Javy joke that it's tough leading off an inning when he has to run in from CF. Hinch was giving him a hard time, in a joking kinda way.

Hmmmm...Keith over Zack? McKinstry must need a day off?

LOL - That was a Sparky rule: "Always rest a guy when he's hot"

Used to drive us all crazy but Sparky's idea apparently was that the best time to rest a guy was when he was hot because (Sparky believed) he was less likely to lose his edge with the rest.

Interesting. I’d never heard that.

The defensive improvement Dingler has made in a few short weeks is nothing short of amazing. Very impressive. Jake may have been Wally Pipped. 😅

well the nice thing about being a catcher is the guy in front of you is still going to leave you about 60 games no matter how good he is.
