    Another guy the low-BA hawks want to run out of town.

    That was my recollection as well. That '76 season was so much fun. Strange to say about a team that never contended and finished well below .500. The Tigers even had three All-Star starters: Fidrych, Staub and LeFlore.
  3. SeattleMike
    Three top-30 prospects? He means top 30 of a franchise not in the game, right?
  4. SeattleMike
    Was that Fidrych's first curtain call?
  5. SeattleMike
    Yeah. Was talking to some guy about Jung and he dismissed him as a prospect because he was hitting only .240 (at that time). His FC+ was 130 though. The guy didn't want to hear it.

    Meanwhile Keith has cooled some, although he still seems to get on base at least once every game.
  7. SeattleMike
    Maybe Jobe is the answer in a year or two?
  8. SeattleMike
    Years away? That’s probably too negative. No one saw Baltimore’s 2022 resurgence. No one saw Texas’s this year. Two or three moves go the Tigers way and a couple of developmental successes and they could be competing in a year or two.

    That Englert beating so emblematic of the last 7 years. Always more eyes on the future than whatever is happening in the moment. Fair enough. But really tests the loyalty of its fans.

    Padres say thank you rain delay.

    Max Clark skipping FCL and going straight to A ball. Very aggressive. He may be the youngest player in that league.

    I just can't imagine any team making an offer for Carpenter that would make sense for the Tigers.
  13. SeattleMike
    I can't imagine any trade scenario in which the Tigers would receive a return that could possibly exceed the current or future value of Carpenter. I guess two 50 grade position prospects? But who would make that trade?
  14. SeattleMike
    Small thing but why are they are parading him around Detroit when he could be down in Florida actually starting his career. I hate that the draft is so late now.
  15. SeattleMike
    As you admit, it's the division that is responsible for this unexpected debate. After the first 2 weeks of the season many fans were expecting a 100-loss season (or much worse). That the Tigers have been a .500 team since then is a pleasant surprise.

    Olsen for Norris: scouting acumen or just dumb luck?
  17. SeattleMike
    Meadows will probably hit like Baddoo but his defense will add so much more value.
  18. SeattleMike
    Better defense and it’s probably another 6 scoreless innings for him. The added velocity this year has been welcome.
  19. SeattleMike
    Few hard hit balls even. This offense….
  20. SeattleMike
    I wonder if that is how Cardinals fans feel about 2006. Or Twins fans about ‘87. I sort of feel the same way you do but wouldn’t suffer too much from an “undeserved” championship.
  21. SeattleMike
    What if Carpenter and Greene hadn’t gotten hurt? Tigers are probably close to .500 and bouncing around first place in AL Central.
  22. SeattleMike
    So is it time to think of Carpenter as part of the solution and not some tease.
  23. SeattleMike
    Todd Jones gave up lots of singles but rarely walked anyone nor gave up many HRs. Not a bad profile for a guy who comes in to start an inning with a lead. It’s difficult to score runs by bunching singles.
  24. SeattleMike
    Heading out to the game. Go Tigers
  25. SeattleMike
    Brings back warm and fuzzies about the ill-fated all reliever draft. If memory serves though Alex Avila was in that draft. Avila seems to get overlooked when discussing position player Tiger draft success stories.
