2026 Exhibition Spring Games

TB announcer praising Anderson's pitching. 

[IdahoBert]

McGonigle looks like he’s at least hitting his way into a starting role on this squad. Gets a triple in his first at bat. 

[Tigermojo]

Bloop double for McGonigle but gets out trying for third on the next play.

This is getting exciting about this young player.

Kevin McGonigle:

God, the Rays radio announcer is talking about Mahjong and comedians. It’s not like he’s entertaining like our boy Jason. 

[IdahoBert]

Colt Keith singles on a line drive to center fielder Cedric Mullins. Kevin McGonigle scores. Matt Vierling scores. Hate to interrupt a fascinating discussion about Mahjong and comedians on Tampa Bay radio, but hey the Tigers now have a 5–1 lead.

[Tigermojo]

Bench guys getting nervous. These young guys are here to hit.

[IdahoBert]

6-1 Tigers… Thayron Liranzo singles on a ground ball to right fielder Angel Mateo. Jace Jung scores in the 6th. 

[IdahoBert]

7-1 Tigs

[IdahoBert]

Corey Julks hits a grand slam (2) to left field. Josue Briceño scores. Ben Malgeri scores. Peyton Graham scores. HA HA HA

[IdahoBert]

John Peck homers (1) on a fly ball to right center field. Top of the 6th. 12-1!

He' the guy to keep an eye on. My pick for our future shortstop 2028. Rainer at third and McGonigle at second.

Rays announcers on the radio reminding us of last year‘s collapse in the regular season and they’re not being jerks about it. They’re just expressing a degree of astonishment, which is true and justified.

He's going to force Hinch to keep him. The only way he makes the team is as a starter. No way would they bring him north to sit. Just...no way. This is another case of why I say spring stats matter. Hit .400 and suddenly there's a spot for you. Hit .100 and they could use you in Toledo...right, Parker?

Three weeks left but that's what it looks like so far. Meadows does have an option but Jones' roster spot may be in jeopardy.

Jack Little struck out the side for the Tigers against the Rays in the bottom of the eighth. 

[IdahoBert]

Tigers finish the game with 12 runs and 17 hits and although the bottom of the 9th hasn’t been played yet, I imagine that a 12–1 lead is sufficient to call this one a win.

It's the funnest fun they ever funned. 🤣🤣

[Motor City Sonics]

McGonigle (King Of The Spring) is making it hard for the team to not bring him North (or West to San Diego)

 

Pilkington didn't pitch well again

IF he hits at all he'll be playing.
