    We should not punt on this year. The division could be ripe for the picking. Maybe we are better next year but So could the rest of the division. Losing Green really hurt on both sides of the ball. If we can hang in until he returns I like our chances. Breskie looks like a keeper and Skubal is stepping up. We have deep pitching. Just need to tighten up defensively. The hitting with Green is sufficient.

    "energy is good" doesn't mesh with "we need to show up better" does it ?

    Peralta replacing Alexander in the rotation in LA ?

    Torks defense is the least of our worries. Pop ups need work. Baez’s thumb is number one with starting pitching health second and outfield defense third and Badoo fourth. The hitters will eventually come around but Badoo worries me.

    Tigers prefer warmer climates. They will ROAR come summer.

    Miggy homer to tie for 2999 and another Homer to win for 3000

    Erod looks good. Now find a way to win this game !

    As we moan about our pitchers our hitters are fast asleep.

    Gibson is really getting annoying with his way over excuses. And he's one of my all time favorites. Just can the syrup please. It's a pop up for gosh sakes. Just say he blew it. Two pop ups ! Yes mistakes happen but stop sugar coating it. I doubt the players would.

    ya why defer to the pitcher ? Or was he waiting for Torkelson to call him off ?

    Those Twins teams were good and when we wonder why our 84 team did not win more consider the Twins had Carew, Oliva, Killebrew, Kaat , Allison and Dean Chance together for a stretch. Not bad.

    I doubt Garneau gets through waivers.

    It's possible teams like the Rays and Giants have already figured this out which is why they are so committed to short starts and bullpen led pitching staffs. The Tigers are behind in this thinking still trying to build a team via starting pitching and drafting Mize 1-1 and Jobe #3 instead of position players. That is perhaps the wrong approach in a now breaking ball pitching mind set. Starting pitching is a weak foundation upon which to build a team. Despite their excessive pampering our staters are dropping like flies. They are protecting Jobe like he's the Pope touring Afghanistan. At this rate he will be 21 before he pitches a whole game. They should reconsider where to invest their money and expect lots of turnover on the pitching staff.

    I would guess they are hesitant to replace Badoo with Hill given each players "potential" ceiling. We are probably stuck with Badoo "improving" in center until Riley Greene arrives and even he might be better served in a corner. So centerfielder's should still be on Al's shopping list.

    FUBAR

    Now Manning ???

    Agee. I think Erod will be fine and comparisons to Zimmerman unfair. He is improving and Zimmerman was declining. I think and hope Erod will be a solid signing.

    As one of the original baseball franchises the Tigers should be a top 10 value. I agree winning helps but better player and historical promotion would also help. They have done nothing to promote stars like Whitaker Freehan Lolich Cecil And similar who are at or near HOF level.

    I hope Meadows is better than he has shown so far but his worst game was in the rain. I think he could be average? Badoo worries me also defensively anyone else have an early evaluation?
  20. SoCalTiger
    Candy hurting us in the field so far and Badoo not much better. Defense needs to tighten up soon
  21. SoCalTiger
    Man you have to let him try. What's the difference between 80 and 100 pitches. he was cruising effortlessly. Only 23 of those ! Thats' just over thinking the room.
  22. SoCalTiger
    I noticed that also and its one big reason Tampa traded him but it was rotten day for evaluating. Same for candy's error but that cost us 5 runs and essentially the ballgame.
  23. SoCalTiger
    Hope Meadows is moved soon to AA

    Hinch loves catchers. Lucky we don't have four. But watch Garneau slam the ball today now that we have doubted him.
  25. SoCalTiger
    Yes I remember that and before the game was "This week in Baseball"..I can still hear the music...
