  1. Who knew? He likely will come back to earth. Would have been nice to have him as depth in Toledo, but he would only have received a shot with an injury, and only as interim.
  2. Why let Webb go 103 pitches when you’re down by 3? Must really need to preserve the pen.
  3. Webb is literally the definition of hit or miss. When he’s not carving up Tigers, they are getting’ their hits. Odd outing.
  4. Might reduce the chance that he opts out—he was likely counting on a full season of production playing in Fenway. Would be great if Devers refuses to go back to 3B now.
  5. Great X account, if you’re not already following
  6. Max Anderson still raking. As a 1B/2B, he’s a bit buried on the depth chart. Likely trade candidate for relief upgrade?
  7. Pacheco is only 22. Not unusual for minor leaguers to develop on slower timelines. Parker Meadows spent a considerable amount of time in West Michigan. He still K’s too much, which might catch up to him as he advances, but he was also a highly regarded 2nd rounder out of high school. Also, like Meadows.
  8. To add to all of the great news of the day, none of the minor league teams lost today.
  9. Scoreboard watching in May is the sign of a good season.
  10. The good news: Tigers win against a good team, Montero provides 5 shutout innings, clutch hit by Riley, good all-around game by Tork, save from Vest, nice tribute to our fallen soldiers. The not-great news: Bullpen notches one K in 4 innings, Holton looks broken, offense needs a jolt.
  11. The reality is that acquiring Skenes would make the Tigers that much more formidable in a playoff. Running Skubal, Skenes and Mize out would be very strong. And Skenes protects for when Skubal likely leaves in free agency.
  12. As much as I bemoan the current pen, help could be coming. SGL might be effective in relief, and if Cobb is ever able to make it back, he could push Jobe to the pen in an effort to limit his innings this season.
  13. If Rainer could finish the season with West Michigan, that would be awesome. Same with Clark and McGonigle in Erie.
  14. The inability of anyone in our pen to get a K is troubling. Vest is closest, but should be a setup guy.
  15. I honestly don’t know how the Indians had a negative run differential coming into this series. They look so much more complete than we do.
  16. We were gifted Herrin and didn’t take advantage. Now we get Clase. And they get Brebbia
  17. Would we pinch hit Dingler for Rogers?
  18. Let’s hope we add a couple of bullpen pieces by then. They have a big edge there.
  19. Benetti is significantly better on a National broadcast. Much less silliness.
