    Very high level, like one of the top position prospects in the minors. I don't think teams would offer that but that was my interpretation of the the hypothetical question.
  2. Tiger337
    I would.

    Carpenter is not a good defender, but the relatively small sample defensive numbers do not suggest he is terrible compared to other corner outfielders. More like average. Anyway, I don't really understand why they would trade him... unless some team is offereing Chet Lemon.
  4. Tiger337
    That game is on my short list of favorite games of all time including post-season games.

    I am not a fan of cliches like 'Hitting slumps. Defense is daily.' However, it depends on how good a hitter and which position. If it's a corner outfielder or first baseman, then you want to emphasize offense more. If it's a shortstop or catcher, then defense becomes more important.

    Pitching and defense often work together, so it's hard to tell. It's probably less important than it used to be with all the strikeouts now, but it still matters.

    Why are we talking about batting average? I thought we were better than that?
  8. Tiger337
    Meadows is reportedly a better defender which might make a difference in how he's perceived if he struggles offensively. I still think Baddoo should have spent more time in the minors, but you can't go back in time. He'll probably have a hard time getting another extended shot in the majors.

    McKinstry might be the classic utility guy who can't hit because he's not getting regular at bats and stops hitting when he gets too many at bats.

    They don't understand what impeachment is about. They just want Biden impeached because Trump got impeached twice.

    I was thinking that he may have crossed the Deuce and was told not to show his face there again if he knows what's good for him.
  12. Tiger337
    Agreed on the small sample size. Right-handed hitters have much less of a problem with splits than left-handed hitters, so I am not anticipating thst will continue to be an issue going forward.
  13. Tiger337
    They look like they are too bored to listen to him. No facial expressions whatsoever.

    Is there any chance that Bigbie is the next 19th rounder non-prospect who makes a contribution in the majors ala Kerry Carpenter?

    Why do conservatives take pride in seeing a big company fail and why are politicians going after this company? I thought they were supposed to be pro business and free market.. Budweiser marketed their product using a trans theme. It didn't work and they lost money. EVERYTHING a big company does is about profit. This was not a political decision.

    If he has reverse splits, that gives me more confidence he could play offensively everyday since RHH seem to to have better chance of learning how to hit RHP than LHH have of learning how to hit LHP. The problem for him, of course, will be finding a position.

    I think managers in general, while not totally irrelevant have less relevancy than traditionally believed. I think bullpen management is one of the only areas where they can win or lose a few games over the course of the season. The Tigers bullpens have mostly over achieved during Hinch's tenure. I think a lot of that credit goes to Fetter though.

    Pig Snuggler is just here to talk Tigers baseball with his homies.
  19. Tiger337
    He could have been Randy Smith.
  20. Tiger337
    Not all the no brainer draft picks in baseball work out... I am not saying he was a great GM. I am just saying that there will likely be a good number of Avila players on the team when they start winning more.
  21. Tiger337
  22. Tiger337
    Greene, Torkelson, Manning, Mize, Skubal, Carpenter, Rogers, Keith
  23. Tiger337
    For the next couple of years, most of their good young players will likely be Avila acquisitions. If not, then we are in trouble.
  24. Tiger337
    And helping too.
  25. Tiger337
    I like him Short.
