Motor City Sonics

You sensed it, maybe not the racism part, but the a-hole part.

He's had an odd career. I don't think he's done, though He should sign with the Rockies and hit a bunch of HR in the altitude and some dumb team (The Angels?) will be suckered into something like 3 years, 85 million

Maybe you disliked him because he was an a-hole and a racist.

They send Lee down instead of getting rid of Short? F YOU HARRIS !

NO...............LEAD............IS...............SAFE

Oh, no real roster moves today? I hope Tampa destroys them.

Clark is not ready. Blistering start - then the other teams figured him out and he's cratered since then. OBP of .319 at AAA does not indicate readiness. The other OFs I mentioned (Malgeri, Julks and Gentry) are all over .385. I think they'd have a puncher's chance of making a difference. Anything on Meadows? Anything on Baez? I think Malgeri has a shot to be an okay player. A better option than Perez and maybe Vierling too. The other two guys? Desperate times call for desperate measures.

Just make it a four-hour Vanilla Ice concert.

Do you think it's more likely that all of these bands that dropped out of the Redneck 250 thing were misled about what it was (the location would be a dead giveaway) or is it more likely that they, being washed up, were so excited to get invited anywhere that they said yes and their fans went nuts on them? I say the latter.

It'll be Tea and Scrumpets for everyone !

Ben Malgeri - All three OF positions .399 OBP, 1 error in RF Corey Julks. Corner OF, average defense, .385 OBP Tyler Gentry. Corner OF, .396 OBP. Good defender in the corners. Don't know about his range. Any one of those guys for Perez?

I don't want to hear about injuries. This isn't about injuries. This is about poor roster building and poor managerial decisions.

Twice he's done this to Montero this year. The other time was what, 71 or 74 pitches. He was cruising. He earned the right to blow his own game. And of course, didn't know when to pull Vest last week when EVERYONE else saw he didn't have it And as far as the bullpen blowing games. Have they been that bad? Honestly? Or are they just giving up runs like a normal bullpen for a team that can't produce any run support for it's pitchers? Goes back to the lineup of horrible players who can't support ANY pitching. But let's not make any changes. Let's just keep going. Carpenter came back to save us. He gets a hit and then the Genius pulls him for ****ing Jones. I'm just so done with him. Just put your best out there and let them play. Stop with so much platooning.

Oh, I think Hinch has just as much pull as who comes up from Toledo as any manager does with that kind of roster decision. I have a feeling Hinch has talked Harris into keeping guys around. You know what Hinch probably sounds like right now. Spicoli saying "My dad's a TV repair man, he's got this ultimate set of tools. I can fix it". I think Hinch believes he can fix Jones and Short and Perez. Maybe Max Anderson, Ben Malgeri and Jace Jung or Corey Julks wouldn't be any better, but as we have hit absolute rock bottom now, we can't give a try? When you say "it couldn't be worse". RIGHT NOW is what we're talking about. It really couldn't be worse. Throw **** against the wall and hope it sticks is a better than just watching the wall slowly crumble.

Make no changes. Just keep doing the same thing. Season over by June. Competing with 2003 & 2019 for ineptness.

Keider-----------dude, you let us down. You didn't pitch a no-hitter. How do you expect to win when you don't pitch a no-hitter - you stupid fool !

This is true, but the other options are Short (who is still here for some reason) and Lee, who really isn't ready for Prime Time yet. The pixies dust has blown off of McKinstry. He's back to what we thought he was. Keep rolling Perez out there. Keep rolling Jones out there. Keep doing the same thing and expecting a different result. Go back and look at Jones last year. Lots of seeing-eye hits. He's not good. And he can't even play defense. If you can't play in the field, you need to be a good hitter to justify a spot - but not with this team.

If they get swept by Tampa Bay and with that day off Thursday don't fire Hinch, fans should boycott the rest of this season.

Why - is there a hint or did Stanford Boy take him out because the computer in his brain said he has to?

McKinstry vs. RHP .225/.294/.665 McKinstry vs. LHP .235/.306/.673

Because McKinstry is actually better against LH pitching than RH pitching, I believe.

He needs to be fired. Sorry, the players suck, but much of this is on him too. There you go - Pinch hit Jones. My god, he just won't let a left handed hitter face a left handed pitcher, will he? Platooning only works when the guy you are platooning with is actually decent.

Another embarrassment. No changes will be made unless there's an injury. They're tanking to justify trading Skubal to the fans.
