He'll be beating the chicka away with a stick.

I hope he shaves for the wedding

I saw that '75 team on my one and only visit to Tiger Stadium. Veryzer was clearly just awful at the time but somehow Sutherland didn't seem as bad. But checking his career at b-r, yes indeed he was just as bad. Sutherland is a member of a club with no more joiners: guys who played for the Tigers and the Expos.

He did all the little things that don't show up on the scoresheet.

Grab another PBR and a fistful of pink popcorn, Rule 5 is starting soon.

I had an aunt like that too but she was born in 1911! She and her friends would go on organized bus trips to Cleveland in the late 1950's to see games, it is about a 3 hour drive.

I loved this guy and his stats in the early 60's were just ridiculous for low strikeouts by a home run hitter. What an arm, he played left because Kaline was already in right. That's the best pair of corner outfielders for the Tigers for the past 75 years, maybe ever. Ernie Harwell just loved to say that name.

Absolutely, teams will see that 20/20 potential and think that they can fix the hit tool.

Dammit! They're letting go of Christian Quintz?

And before anyone asks, yes I have a guest room, but at this point it has become a sort of shrine to Lee Panas. I have stitched some ribbon around each of the barf stains on the rug, and incorporated a little brass tag into each, indicating the year in which it occurred.

Never had it. Gravy on French fries, sure, but not the cheese curds. No, experienced Rule V party goers will know that what is on offer, along with the PBR, is pink popcorn.

Mojo he's right. Where are you crossing the border? If it is the Niagara River, the Buffalo/Fort Erie duty free is better than the Niagara Falls one, or Lewiston/Queenston. Grab a case of PBR for yourself, and a gallon of Canadian rye whiskey.

Now that we know the date of the Rule 5 Draft, we can schedule the Rule V party.

That's the hope for Mize and Manning, that teams have enough hubris to say about themselves "we can fix him" and swap their number 6 prospect, a righthanded hitting middle infielder with a glove and some power.

I would say don't worry about Keith's power, it's in there, definitely enough for 1B if the OBP ticks up. And yes, I pushed Tork off a cliff but don't worry, I sent Brieske home with his outright release 3 years ago.
