My fave is when the head umps come out and say that the zone on tv isn't accurate. Perhaps it's not 100% accurate but how do explain missed calls that the batters, catchers, pitchers and guys in the dugout all think you got wrong? Like every one of them AND the k zone is wrong but the ump is the one that actually got it right. That's what these Umps and their representatives want you to believe.

The fluff talk on the radio and Lions beat writers is that Trinity Benson is "tearing up the ota's" if that is legit and it carries over to the season this pass catching group could actually become a strength of the team.
-
True but teams were probably just basing that off a normal timeline of an acl tear but every player is different and heals differently. To me the fact that it is even in discussion that he may be ready for the first day of camp leads me to think that he is pretty far along. With that said Im certainly in the camp of not rushing him and really don't care either way if he starts the first week, I just want whats best for him long term.
-
It is crazy that he is still only 24 years old, of course that doesnt really change the fact that he is made of glass but just an overall observation on my part.
-
You just love to see it.....when it's not the Tigers doing it of course.
-
Fb sitting 94 and 95 may be the most encouraging news especially if it topped out at say 97.

"I don't see him being ready for training camp. I don't see that," Campbell said. "I'm very hopeful, but I don't see it. We're going to do this thing the right way and when he's ready, he'll be ready. But, no, I don't feel like you're going to see him out there Day 1" Campbell's response when asked about Williams. Definitely agree with taking slow but even if he isn't ready by day 1 of camp that doesn't mean he won't be ready by the start of the season.

If it is indeed another 2 weeks I guess we owe Lynn an apology cause that would make what 3‐4 weeks total he was there? Yeah Lynn said 5 weeks but if it ends up being close to 4 I will give him the benefit of the doubt. I honestly thought he'd be there a couple weeks tops.

https://www.espn.com/nba/insider/story/_/id/34055752/2022-nba-draft-ranking-top-30-prospects-based-stats-scouting Kevin Pelton top 30 prospects based off the advanced metrics and scouting. The metrics point a much different picture than what the scouts say. His list has Holmgrem, Smith, Murray, Griffin and Daniels at the top 5 in that order. Paulo is all the way down at 12. Even though it says and scouting I'm not sure how much emphasis is put on that though.
-
I say this half in jest but part of me thinks he should legit try it and that is once he gets to two strikes just take a couple pitches, if it ends up being a fastball down the middle and you do down looking so be it. On the other hand if they are sliders away like they have basically been every time you now show teams that you are willing to lay off of them so maybe they'll actually start to throw you something different sometimes going forward.

Jesus turned water into wine but Fetter turned the Tigers bullpen into a force. You tell me who the real miracle worker is.
-
A top 5 prospect in baseball is getting called up for this weekend's series at Comerica...unfortunately it's not the guy we were hoping for.
-
I'm gonna keep watching since I'm only 5 mins but just want to comment this before I forget. Holmes and Campbell say something like "there's only 1 person on the board" when they put in the Hutch pick, if I'm reading it right I'm thinking they must've had him and Walker as the only 2 guys they thought about with that pick and after Walker was taken that left Hutch as the only person on the board.
-
ESPN put out their projected draft order based off their FPI metric and they have the Lions with the 8th pick. The teams ahead of them in order are Jets, Bears, Texans, Jags, Falcons, Steelers and Panthers. 4 of those 7 teams used 1st round picks on QBs in the last 2 years so they may not necessarily be in the market for one this draft. I suppose though that if the Jets finish that bad it was probably due to Wilson not looking good and considering how quickly NY dumped Darnold they may do the same if Wilson looks bad again this year.
-
Yes offense is down and yes these are kinda arbitrary cutoff numbers but still to do something that only 2 other players in the last 130 years have done is pretty damn impressive.
-
I think if he is there then he's probably the pick but I wouldn't be surprised if Sacramento goes after him, particularly if they are indeed serious about making the playoffs next year.
-
With the lack of production and defense we have been getting from the OF this year if Reyes comes back and plays to his career norms he may seem like Willie Mays to us.
-
My Mom's side of the family is from just outside Pittsburgh so we had our family reunions there ever summer up until I was probably 16. That was my Cedar Point as a kid, miss those days.
-
The more stuff you post about Murray the more I like him. Im getting to the point where I may actually be a little disappointed if we don't get him, which is weird cause a month ago I didn't even want him.
-
Don't look now but Daz now has the 3rd highest slugging on the team and is about league average in OPS. Granted being 3rd on this team is like being the tallest midget but still he is starting to look a little more conpetent at the plate and may not be a complete lost cause after all.
-
Judging by the mocks there are a few guys that could be available at 16 that I like so Id do that deal if offered.

Josh and Gibby's interactions were always the butt of jokes with my friends and I. Like they always just came up with random conversations out of nowhere. Josh: Fick with an rbi double to bring the Tigers within 1 Gibby: "So did you see SNL on Saturday Josh" *ten minute discussion about snl ensues.*

God that book was a lifesaver in the pre digital cable days.

It was only in Toledo but Grossman just tattooed a HR, even if it was in the minors it's nice to see him show some power after it being non existent up here this year.
