  1. Wouldn't it be great to have a roster crunch?
  2. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/teacherman-taught-kerry-carpenter-is-schooling-pitchers-in-motown/ Middling-at-best ouch
  3. They continue to make adjustments to the league which is a really good sign. They can afford to give some September call ups a taste of the majors, even if they have to cut some dead weight to free up playing time.
  4. It's fun stomping Twinkies! (Phew...)
  5. Baddoo making things happen.
  6. If Houston has five starters, Verlander would be scheduled to pitch 8/27.
  7. It's going to be an exciting next five years if these kids stay healthy and produce like they have been.
  8. These guys are playing anything you can do, I can do better.
  9. Great to see Greene and Tork flexing.
  10. I had given up on Miggy hitting anymore homers but that was crushed!
  11. Significant other homer day!
  12. The bat improved after he was sent down but he should not be playing third. I don't get why they don't swap him and Ibanez but I'm not a chess master.
  13. Haase homer for his wife in attendance.
  14. Carpenter over the green monster!
  15. There are still so many question marks on this team. Even their obvious best player has an unsustainable .404 BABIP and can he stay healthy? These guys are so young and inconsistent. It's impossible to predict which side of .500 they end up on. There is a lot of potential but relying on 21, 22, 23 year olds is asking for trouble. Teams don't generally win by plugging three rookies into their lineup. Harris has a tough job this offseason and I want him to hire a GM to help. I think adding some short term veterans could help stabilize the roster. They had that in the rotation this year. A hitter or two could be helpful and a couple starting pitchers again. That could alleviate some of the pressure on these guys. They are probably a few years from serious contention but to get there, Harris, Hinch and the players will have to come up with answers to the many questions about the current roster.
  16. If they could add a couple good bats and have a bench of McKinstry, Vierling and Short, they might be able to compete in the Central.
