oblong Posted September 27, 2021 Posted September 27, 2021 22 years ago I walked out of Tiger Stadium for the last time..... I love this photo of my friend and I as we're still season ticket holders today. He's 63 now, had some serious health issues, multiple heart attacks, got covid this year the same week he got vaccinated, etc. But we got to go to 4 games together once he got his energy level up. We joke that I'm older now than he was then. Seems like yesterday. 3 Quote
gehringer_2 Posted September 27, 2021 Posted September 27, 2021 I yearn for the day next season when I will see the first lineup without Niko or W. Castro. 4 Quote

I'm have no dog in a fight over whether Reyes or Hill wins the battle for more PA, but the rest is where they need to end up by sometime in May. Quote
IdahoBert Posted September 27, 2021 Posted September 27, 2021 I sure hope they can remember how to hit the ball and that it will not result in pop-ups or line drives directly at outfielders or easy ground balls for double plays. Quote

Trading for Carlos Correa will not be necessary. Sending his agent a gigantic check and giving up our draft pick will be. Quote

gehringer_2 Posted September 27, 2021 Posted September 27, 2021 Manning got out of it despite being really squeezed on a couple of pitches. Quote
Archie Posted September 27, 2021 Posted September 27, 2021 I'm not sold on Haase just yet. Even if the don't get Correa they can still get upgrades to Niko and W. Castro. I like Hill but he has to stay healthy. Quote

I like Hill but he has to stay healthy. no, Haase is a nice backup/utility guy and he might be a great platoon with a young Alex Avila, but I don't see LH platoon catcher candidate out there.

gehringer_2 Posted September 27, 2021 Posted September 27, 2021 Watching Tiger shortstops this season has been the one deeply masochistic aspect of this year's fandom. Quote
Crazy Cat Gentleman Posted September 27, 2021 Posted September 27, 2021 (edited) Baddoo! RBI single and to 2nd on the throw to 3rd. gutsy. Edited September 27, 2021 by Crazy Cat Gentleman Quote
IdahoBert Posted September 27, 2021 Posted September 27, 2021 I love Jim but he’s kinda dopey at times. Forgetting stuff, rambling. I do this but I’m not on air. Quote
Crazy Cat Gentleman Posted September 27, 2021 Posted September 27, 2021 Willi shows off his greenness in LF and a couple runs score. Quote
