Tiger337 Posted February 22 Posted February 22 This is the annual bold predictions thread. This is not a thread for projections or maybes or ifs or buts. Say what you think will happen definitively from your gut. I'll start. Kevin McGonigle will head north with the team as the starting shortstop, start off a little slow and then everything will click and he will be Rookie Of The Year. Quote
Tigermojo Posted February 22 Posted February 22 Boring prediction: Tigers will go north with their 13 position players who have proven they are capable of producing 1+ WAR at the MLB level. Everyone else will be depth at Toledo for now. Quarter zips will be worn. Quote
chasfh Posted February 22 Posted February 22 Might as well memorialize it here: Hao-Yu Lee will come north with the team. Quote
CaliforniaDreaming Posted February 23 Posted February 23 Troy Melton will start the season in AAA but will be in the rotation by July 1 and will make it impossible for them to take him out. Quote

I don’t think it’s out of the question at all, but I can see where a majority of folks don’t believe in that path. Quote
tiger2022 Posted February 24 Posted February 24 (edited) Verlander finishes with a 5.34 era, spends most of the season on th IL and basically is Charlie Morton of 2026 Dingler turns in an awesome season with 25 dinglers. Parker Meadows is sent to AAA after 30 games. Tork hits 40 homers but becomes a one trick pony with a .210 avg. Framber valdez gets suspended for the season for performance enhancing drugs. Fernando Rodney comes out of retirement to sign with the Tigers in June. Edited February 24 by tiger2022 Quote

Edman85 Posted February 24 Posted February 24 (edited) I predict no less than 50 times the same redundant Harris/Avila argument comes up randomly in threads from now through the end of September. Please don't take this as an invitation to repeat the same banal arguments from other threads. Edited February 24 by Edman85 3 Quote

chasfh Posted February 25 Posted February 25 As long as we’re making that kind of prediction at the moment, I predict that no matter what the team’s record is on August 1, whether we are 75-35, 35-75, or anything in between, nobody here will be happy. Quote
