Eric Karros' kid at third. Thanks for making us feel like a bunch of old farts.

Gleyber Torres singles on a ground ball to center fielder Brenton Doyle. Parker Meadows scores. Javier Báez scores.

[IdahoBert]

Meadows ran fast enough down the line to avoid a double play and then he stole second base. And he ends up scoring.

Flaherty does a Flaherty and gives up a two run home run

Should I be using Claude over ChatGPT or CoPilot?  Or should I just ask Claude?

Depends on what you need..

I will say for NCAA Tournament graphics to help a friend last week, GPT won over Gemini. Claude and CoPilot conscientiously objected to using trademarked material.

Petzold's prediction today was that Mize would be the guy to fall out of the rotation, I'd put my money on Flaherty. I know everyone loves his peripherals. but I'm not persuaded the ability of his outcomes to lag his peripherals isn't more than just bad luck.

Flaherty gives up a long ball to centerfield.

Karros triples in a run. They are hitting Jack hard.

[IdahoBert]

Dingler doubles then Meadows doubles him in. At least our guys are putting some wood on the ball.

[gehringer_2]

Parker's bat coming around some.

[IdahoBert]

Gleyber Torres hits a ground-rule double (2) on a fly ball down the right-field line. Parker Meadows scores. 4-4. 

[IdahoBert]

Flaherty pulled after 81 pitches and starting to look like he was getting in the groove. “He’s working on things…” Got in 4.2 innings.

great K/BB ratio, lousy WHIP

Finnegan replaces Jack Flaherty.

Three times now the Rockies PBP guy (who is terrible BTW) has said McGonigle is starting at Toledo. Go figure.

Holton gives up a couple of loud ABs. One scores, Nido erases the other on a CS.

Incredible tag by Javy. Has to go all the way across his body in the blink of an eye. 

[gehringer_2]

Rockies return the defensive favor by throwing out a Tiger I never heard of at the plate. It was a hit for McGonigle though. 

Tork getting his warning track power swing down pat tonight....🙄

That was a pretty good throw for me to poop on!

[gehringer_2]

according to gameday, the first pitch to McK was almost middle-middle, was called a ball, but not appealed. Did the burn their challenges?

He played in 20 spring games for the Tigers and two games against the Dominican Republic national team and played generally good defense. They didn’t send him to play in the spring breakout games for minor league prospects. I wouldn’t be surprised if he played more games than a lot of the regulars.

The fan base is profoundly excited about him and he is only going to get better by facing major league competition not minor league competition. 

Not putting him on the 26-man roster at this point would be pretty much an admission that the club really doesn’t believe in its philosophy. 

If he doesn’t make the team, I will be so pissed I’ll go on a six-state crime spree a robbin’ and a shootin’ and dying in a hail of bullets as a way of expressing my dissatisfaction.
