IdahoBert Posted April 28 Posted April 28 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?  Quote

monkeytargets39 Posted April 28 Posted April 28 (edited) 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.

IdahoBert Posted April 28 Posted April 28 At least we don’t have to worry about the weather. That’s actually kind of a relief. Quote
Sports_Freak Posted April 28 Posted April 28 Hmmmm...Keith over Zack? McKinstry must need a day off? Quote
gehringer_2 Posted April 28 Posted April 28 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....🙄. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/44907699/now-left-field-altuve-asks-astros-leadoff-spot 1 Quote

Hinch was giving him a hard time, in a joking kinda way. Quote

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. Quote
IdahoBert Posted April 29 Posted April 29 Given the way AJ uses his position players, I expect we’ll see Zach sometime this game unless it’s a knock down blowout. Quote

Sports_Freak Posted April 29 Posted April 29 The defensive improvement Dingler has made in a few short weeks is nothing short of amazing. Very impressive. Jake may have been Wally Pipped. 😅 Quote

gehringer_2 Posted April 29 Posted April 29 With this small K zone - could be a high scoring game before it's over. Quote
