1984Echoes

Agree with this. The team is not going to spend on a 1st Baseman. Not this year anyways. Tork will get more chances... until he runs out of them, IMO. The RH'ed bat to add is in the rest of the IF. Not 1B, not the OF. That means Bregman, Torres, or Adames (let me add Kim into this because... yes), IMO. 3B and SS are easy places for a RH'ed bat (especially if they jettison Baez); and I believe Adames can also play 3B and 2B, as can Kim. Even Torres could work if they find out Keith can go back to 3B (all depends on his shoulder...); but as a secondary question, can Gleyber also play 3B? There are variances in ability from the right side... but balance might be more important than lethality from the right side for this signing. But a plus RH'ed bat nonetheless. I would have no problem with adding any of these guys, and I'll leave the dirty work and analysis up to Harris and his team to decide which one (certainly dependent on mutual interest...).

In the process of retirement and searching for my soulmate to travel the world with me. Looking at buying two houses, one in (or near) Lakeland and one between Saint Clair Shores and Harrison Township... On the lake or lake access... But it's a process... My 84Echoes!!! Prescription for the Tigers 2024 offseason: Sign Posted Japanese RH'ed pitcher Roki Sasaki Sign one of (Harris, you decide): Gleyber Torres, Willy Adames, Alex Bregman. Trade for Mason Miller, closer. PS: Beat the Indians out for the Division. Win the ****ing World Series. How's that for '84...?

And (how Israel views this) rightfully so.

2025 MLB Lottery = MOOT POINT!!!

This is the only reason that the Harris-Walz campaign would release these numbers or encourage them to be released. To make Trump's head explode. You hit the nail on the head.

I say put him in the bullpen and let's see what happens.

Well... Both Mark and Edman said he was a reliever. And only a reliever.

Well, alternatively... Maybe that will give a few ****heads pause, the next time they are considering terrorism...

Does he hate the future? Or does he just LOVE living inside his ****ing cave?

Where I come from... This is called Full of ****.

Ah... I didn't know that was a running joke... I thought maybe a "commanding voice" from the sky said "It's not real" or something like that...

My boss... He texted me about the Perfect Game in the 7th inning...

What the freaking HECK is Fetter FEEDING these guys...? Spinach?

Why are we not allowed to pay attention to him?

Is that why he's in California...? To try and get them voted out of their seats?

I think Manning needs to be sent to the bullpen. As a last chance to figure something out. Like consistency, for one. Maybe his pitches will play up there and he can go all out for 1 inning at a time. I think we have the depth next year to let him try this as something different (because what he's doing this and the past several years is not working...). 100% Won't happen until at least Opening Day. Spring training injuries and all. He's actually been a damn fine pitcher this year... In his GOOD appearances that is. He's been almost dominant, in his "good" appearances. His ATROCIOUS appearances on the other hand (the ratio was 50/50 a while ago, I don't know if he's still on that ratio...) have been, well, I don't even know if "atrocious" is the right word. Is there something worse than "atrocious"?

I just think he's an obnoxious mother-****ing asshole scumbag. The moment he opened his ****ing mouth and started spewing his deuchebag drivel. Which was a long, long, long, looooooong time ago. And he hasn't stopped since.

WINNER WINNER!!! CHICKEN DINNER!!! Or how about a bowl of borscht with a plate of kimchi on the side?

Ah yeah... I think he is. I forgot about that.

You're thinking of the NFL, where they do that. There's no such thing in MLB. As Ratko says, he's getting the "whole enchilada".

If Sweeney is capable as the LH'ed starter at SS in 2025... Than Baez can be the short side of a platoon and a defensive replacement, if needed. He can also play other positions, so he could conceivably end up as a utility guy in 2025. A very expensive one though. But I'd rather they move on and look to the future. The exact same position can be filled by Kreidler or Workman, just to see if one of them can stick. But they'd have to be good enough defensively at SS, and I don't know if Kreidler is, or if Workman is ready for MLB just yet... I'm just sayin'...

Same with CJ Weins, the pitcher we got from the Red Sox for Trey Wingenter. PS: 1 inning tonight... nothing except 2 K's.

I think the Tigers stealing a Wild Card spot this year would be crazy exciting...! We weren't even dreaming of this a couple weeks ago... And now... All of a sudden...? Heck... YEAH!!!

Sweeney in September: 1.013 OPS 😁

Walker Buehler could be next year's Flaherty. At least I believe he's a FA this year? And Flaherty could easily be in his ear: "Dude, go to Detroit for a year! I swear to you!"
