2026 Exhibition Spring Games

And you thought you wouldn't be seeing Keider starting games this year.........you're so silly.

LaGrange starting for the Yankees today, so of course I thought of this.   And the guy without the long beard is named Beard, because of course.

God bless you, Mark!

I’m not sure what “Tigers TV“ means. If it means that we get one of our own broadcasts that would be awesome. And radio as well is cool. 

[IdahoBert]

Right now it’s 80° in Tampa and sunny. Perfect - damn perfect - for this game.

I read that as Kreidler and I was befuddled until I realized my error

Keider Montero wasn't bad

We'll probably see him start at some point.  He wasn't bad last year.  I could see him as a long reliever to start the season.

For lo the winter has past, 
the rain is over and gone; 
The flowers appear on the earth;
The time of the singing of birds is come,
And the voice of the turtle is heard in our land.

Well, even though the TV feed says Detroit TV it’s the Yankees TV feed. I guess I’ll just have to see how Dan Dickerson’s radio feed is synchronized with the picture. I’m watching on mlb.tv.

[IdahoBert]

The Detroit radio feed that is going with the TV feed is about a second behind 

[IdahoBert]

McGonigle gets an opposite field single, and Torres follows with a single as well. 

[Tigermojo]

Gleyber almost took the pitcher's head off.

[Tigermojo]

Wheels McGonigle.  Love it.

[IdahoBert]

Ball gets by the catcher throw goes into the left field McGonnigal scores. 

[IdahoBert]

The black Road jerseys with the orange accent are way cool.

I don’t get to watch this game, or any spring training game not on MLB Network, because my access to MLB.tv is tethered to my Directv Extra Innings package, which does not kick in until Opening Day. And, inexplicably, MLB Network is not running the Yankees game.

Corey Julks homers (1) on a fly ball to left field.

Not necessarily. If he stinks all spring and another arm steps up, I could see him starting in Toledo, if he has options left. There's only one or two open spots, barring injury.

also noted that there is no "TigersTV" on the MLB TV team purchase menu yet, though it appears all the other teams that dropped Diamond are there.

was out in his 2nd AB but still put the ball in play on a line.

[IdahoBert]

Non roster invitee Smith with a history of arm trouble gives up a home run to Aaron Judge, which is not surprising. 

[GalagaGuy]

Judge hits a Spring Training home run off a 35 year old pitcher who has a career ERA near 6 and the Yankee announcers are pretty much declaring him MVP for 2026.  

[IdahoBert]

Dan D. on the radio feed said that the ABS at the minor league level generated one extra walk per game. If you do that at the major league level, that will have an effect on pitching staffs in terms of the duration of outings during a game and all sorts of stuff I’m assuming.

When I say he'll probably start at some point, that means I am assuming there will be injuries.  A team should have 8 viable starters at the beginning of the season.  I think he's one of the 8 along with Melton , Anderson and the top 5.  Melton and Anderson would probably be ahead of him.  A couple of them may start in Toledo.
