But as for Cleveland, you mention DeLauter as their hot rookie, and yet, he’s not even their best rookie. Exactly, but he was all the rage the first 2 weeks. Quote
casimir Posted July 6 Posted July 6 (edited) I thought Greene would get caught in a positional / team quota kerfuffle and not get the initial invite. I thought Dingler and McGonigle would be the only Tiger all stars as of now. Guess I was wrong. Edited July 6 by casimir Quote
Tenacious D Posted July 7 Posted July 7 Riley’s having his best season—3 AS games prior to turning 26 is pretty impressive. Quote

I just think that's going to be REALLY hard to get past for any of the competition... Very true but that all depends on if the voters do a deep dive on stats. So many just look at BA, HR and RBI. Some may look at a version of WAR. Quote
IdahoBert Posted July 8 Posted July 8 So I’m taking that this thing for JV is an honorary position and they won’t put him into the lineup and have him give up four home runs in a row? Quote
IdahoBert Posted July 8 Posted July 8 I love the guy. I’m not trying to diss him, but we’re all holding our breath on how he holds up as soon as he’s back in the real lineup. Quote

Maybe he gives up on rehab and does a curtain call tour with the team for the rest of the season. Quote

I think Verlander has come to terms with his physical limitations due to age and injury and has resolved not to throw another MLB pitch. Otherwise, why set a retirement date? Quote
chasfh Posted July 8 Posted July 8 And it cost them only $15 million to ensure he would wear a Tigers cap into the Hall. 😉 Quote
