I didn't find any info on his velo but I did see that Faedo had 17 WHiffs in his start, apparently the slider was pretty nasty.
-
For me it's one of the QBs outside of Willis, I mean I don't want any of them but I'll be ok with Willis cause of his upside, the rest I have no interest in as the way I see it I don't see any of them ending up any better than what Goff can bring us down the road anyway.

If Walker does go 1 that is a legendary meteoric rise, 2 or 3 months ago Im not sure he was even if the top 10 according to the national mocks. Of course the national big boards may not mirror NFL team big boards so for all we know Walker couldve been near the top on those from the start and his combine numbers just solidified that for teams.

The Tigers need to call up Jobe and put him in the fireman role, I mean why waste the 3rd pick on a guy if you're just going to stash him in the minors???!?? - radio caller

Ja reminds me of a young D-Rose in terms of athletic ability but I'm not even sure if Rose had the type of bunnies that Ja has. Dude can jump out of the gym but for his sake hopefully it doesn't lead to long term injuries like Rose had.

After doing some more research on the subject I think Jeremy Bonderman is probably not only the first Tiger younger than me but quite possibly the first professional athlete in general. He's only 3 weeks younger than me and he started in April of 2003 at 20 years old and 6 months. He most certainly has to be the first Tiger but I'll have to do more research to see if he's the first athlete in general.

I hate saying anything nice about the Twins but I love the powder blue jerseys. I wish more teams would go with that look.

I do think this coming year Casey needs to be under a microscope and management has to determine whether they want him being their coach for a roster that they expect to compete with. The past couple years and probably next he is fine in the "Ron Gardenhire role" of being sorta a mentor for the young guys but the Pistons will have to see if they want to get their AJ Hinch to coach them when they expect to compete or are fine with the old coach.
-
Id be over the moon with Thibs, Pickens and Brisker as our first 3 picks. I prefer Cine and Hill over Brisker but he's in that same tier for me so if they're gone I'd be fine with him.
-
I still gotta couple older than me but not many which makes me sad. I don't remember the first baseball player I was older than but the first basketball player that I knew of atleast was Darko. He was about 3 years younger than me so I'm sure there were others before him but he's the first one I remember seeing their birthdate of and realizing that a pro athlete was younger than me. Edit: after thinking about it, I only have Miggy by like 6 months so when he debuted at the age of 19 for the Marlins he may have been the first pro athlete I was older than. That's kinda cool.

Personally I don't care what a guys motivation is to be great, if it's a competitive nature and need to be the best and win then perfect but if it's only to be great so he can build his brand and make the most money than that works too as long as they work and strive to be great is what ultimately matters to me.

I do vaguely remember hearing that it has one of if the smallest footprints among MLB stadiums.

ESPN still has us taking Paulo at 3 in their latest mock(Chet, Jabari 1 and 2) they released today. I know many have said that he isn't the best fit in today's game yet almost every big board and mock I see has him in the top 3 so he has to have some value, right?
-
On paper the Bears look just as bad if not worse than the Lions albeit with a higher upside qb. Of course they've been known to pull out good seasons out of nowhere with a great turnover fortune and excelling in close games which is often a matter of luck.
-
To me I see Hutch as a safe pick that likely isn't going to be a huge bust but also likely isn't going to be some major game changer like a prime JJ Watt or Myles Garrett. He may have a ceiling of one of the Bosa brothers which if he were to hit Id be fine with considering the lack of top end talent in this draft.. atleast according to the scouts. It's too bad we couldn't get lucky like the last two times we had the number 2 pick and had a Calvin Johnson and Ndamakong Suh sitting there for us
-
Solid start for Tork, I saw another tweet with his profile from savant and there was a lot of red and dark red in it as well.
-
Iirc shortly after the game somebody at the Athletic went back and watched the tape of Hutch against Georgia and he came to the conclusion that he didn't play as bad as it appeared. Apparently Georgia went all out in game planning to neutralize him. I'll have to go try to find the article to see exactly what the conclusion was.

To me its all about consistency, sure I would prefer every call be accurate but if you're going to miss or call a certain pitch a strike make sure you call it that the whole game. Like if you're giving a couple inches off the plate a strike fine go ahead as long as it's to both teams and called that the whole night so the batters and pitchers can adjust. It's just the times you call it a strike then the next ab its called a ball that bothers me and I would assume the players as well.

Apparantly Green and Mobley wowed the Pistons at their workout where Cade reportedly didnt yet we of course went with Cade so I'm confident that this regime isn't going to let a workout dictate who they pick unless all things were equal outside of that.

Meadows keeps us in it with a clutch triple, now up to Hittin Harold!
-
Faedo just got moved up to Toledo.
-
Brieske touching 97, could be a hot gun and/or him just being overly amped but if legit I didn't think he had that in him.
-
Brieske paints the corner with a 95mph fastball on his first pitch and I think "huh maybe we have something here", then the next pitch he hangs a breaking ball for a HR. Damn!
-
We win 13-0 and we didn't even have the largest shutout win of the afternoon, the Cubs curb stomped our arch rivals Pirates 21-0.

Hinchie putting out the Leyland lineup of having your CF bat leadoff and 2B bat in the 2 hole regardless of it is warranted or not.
