SoCalTiger Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Why help the twins for Gods sake just on principal alone if you can't get anything better than a never will be player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1776 Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 I wish Grossman and Fulmer the best. Fulmer had a pretty good run here considering his injuries. Any player that can get out from under this dumpster fire is better off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichiganCardinal Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Just swap out "4th grade me" for Chris Illitch or Al Avila. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCalTiger Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Good for pared,,,good for Fulmer..good for Grossman..to heck with that what about good for the Tiger fans. Yes I am happy for them and really liked Fulmer but not enough to hope the Twins win the World Series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Cowan Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 That's something that gets overlooked when people are talking about how good the Tigers' bullpen is...they don't get to pitch against the Tigers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have nothing against Sawyer Gipson-Long and wish him success in this org. At the very least, that side of the house has Fetter and Co, so maybe they can fix him or turn him into something The ire should be directed at the General Manager. Who had multiple opportunities during past seasons to get more for Fulmer than he did today. Edited August 2, 2022 by mtutiger 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1776 Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Wow, the Cardinals sent Harrison Bader to the Yankees. He seemed like the Cardinal prototype. They needed pitching more than I realized I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chasfh Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 There were some other bad returns on trades besides just ours. The Cubs got a bag of balls for Dave Robertson, and they didn’t move Contreras or Happ at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then they might try Gorman out there and have Corey Dickerson on the roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigeraholic1 Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 I will be tuning into Miggy and Greene AB’s. The rest of my summer/fall will be watching Dan Campbell and Co. bite knee caps and fish for turds in the toilet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtutiger Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Well, hopefully Chafin's arm doesn't fall off this offseason since we're liable to be back here one year from now needing to deal him. Hopefully with someone else doing the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigermojo Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 I'm ok with Chafin if he wants to be here next year. He does his job well and I like the failed starter t-shirts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dtrain72 Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 You guys are cute, all thinking Chris would ever fire Al...Chris was born on home plate with no ridges in his brain; Al's gonna work him for every penny he can get...only way Al goes is if he actually resigns. Al may very well still be GM in 2030, orchestrating his 4th rebuild from rebuilding the rebuild he previously failed rebuilding prior to the 1st rebuild.

Dtrain72 Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 On sidenote re the Fulmer trade, I'm just glad he's gone...good dude, but he was cashed out here. Only wish there was a way to replace 90% of the roster... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
