NorthWoods Posted February 21 Posted February 21 (edited) Announcers fussing that Tigers should be nervous about turning SS over to a 21 year old McGonigle...apparently they're too young to recall a 19-20yr old Alan Trammell. 18 year old Robin Yount. Etc - I would think with the advanced training that kids would be MORE ready today. Edited February 21 by NorthWoods 3 Quote

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. Agreed. He very well may start in Toledo to keep him stretched out. Or maybe stay up north for long relief. In Hinch I trust.....😆 Quote
IdahoBert Posted February 21 Posted February 21 One of the things Dan Dickerson just mentioned is that with the WBC we’ll likely see a lot more of the young guys than we would have otherwise. I’m cool with that. 1 Quote
IdahoBert Posted February 21 Posted February 21 By the way, tomorrow’s game in Lakeland will only have a Tigers radio feed; neither team will be broadcasting on TV for Sunday. Quote

However, the really good ones often start early, so starting at 21 years old is not that rare. Quote
NorthWoods Posted February 21 Posted February 21 Our pitching sucks....we'll be lucky to win 50 games. 🤪 2 Quote
GalagaGuy Posted February 21 Posted February 21 Can the Tigers just go ahead and cut everyone who pitched today? Quote
IdahoBert Posted February 21 Posted February 21 20-3 Yankees in the top of the ninth. FIRE HINCH! Quote

I’m cool with that. A young hitter going with the pitch and hitting a single to the opposite field is a glorious sight to see. That's excellent hitting... 1 Quote
NorthWoods Posted February 21 Posted February 21 I root very hard for John Peck to make it. I've enjoyed teasing one of northern Michigan's biggest auctioneers about his "son" playing ball. https://johnpeckauctions.com/ Quote

IdahoBert Posted February 22 Posted February 22 Well, I’ll miss tomorrow’s game, even though I’d love to listen to it on the radio. My best friend and I usually go on a walk on Sunday and that and lunch will take up the entire game. Quote
1984Echoes Posted February 22 Posted February 22 My brother's coming from Jacksonville so we'll be at the game tomorrow... Hopefully it will be a better game than today's... Quote

Family trip to Chicago this weekend. We’re wandering around the river area, I’m trying to get a few minutes of radio feed just to clamber out of this hibernation we’ve all been in. To boot, it snowed here last night and I’m expecting to shovel a bit when I get home. But there was baseball on my radio (phone), so the 30 and windy felt a bit more optimistically warmer in those Dan and Dan moments. Edited February 22 by casimir Quote
Motor City Sonics Posted February 22 Author Posted February 22 Alex Cobb is still with the Tigers? Quote

Motor City Sonics Posted February 22 Author Posted February 22 Saw the box score of the Orioles/Tigers game and saw K. Pilkington pitched today and all I can think of is this guy 1 Quote

Same science here. Did you know that if you accidentally write permanent marker on a white board that you can erase it by writing over top of it with a dry erase marker? As long as you don't wait too long. Alex Cobb will probably end up pitching for another team and then shutout the Tigers in a deciding playoff game. Quote
Motor City Sonics Posted February 22 Author Posted February 22 How much did the Tigers pay guys who didn't or barely pitched for them because the team knew they were injured when they signed them? Cobb (0 IP), Urquidy (2.1 IP), Sewald (4.1 IP), there's another one in there too, isn't there? Cobb got 15 million for 20 innings of minor league ball. Sign me up . I'll do that. Quote
