  1. It is facile, but the right does tend to admire guys who are outwardly tough.
  2. And here we go. Reese Olson has been working through some elbow soreness in Tigers' camp. The Tigers have been bringing Olson along slowly this spring, but he's slated to throw live batting practice on March 1. In other words, it's not expected to be a long-term issue. Olson, 23, was added to the Tigers' 40-man roster over the winter after posting a 4.14 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 168/38 K/BB ratio across 119 2/3 innings (26 appearances, 25 starts) in Double-A last season. SOURCE: Chris McCosky José Cisnero has been receiving treatment for a muscle spasm in his neck. He's been dealing with the issue for the past week. It doesn't sound like a major concern as of now, so there's still plenty of time for him to get ramped up for the season. The 34-year-old Cisnero missed time with a shoulder injury last year before posting a 1.08 ERA with 23 strikeouts and 19 walks in 25 innings. SOURCE: Cody Stavenhagen
  3. Young people are capable of doing things better than older people for the most part. What they lack is training and experience. I think they make good soldiers because, in part, because they are less resistant to learning new things and less cynical of why we are even at war. Without the training and discipline, they are dangerous.
  4. My dad, the art professor, built my car. It finished last, but it was the best looking car.
  5. Goudeau is 30 years old with a lifetime minors ERA of 5.28. That is definitely a scouting acquisition. Harris=genius!
  6. That's on par with the work he's done on Twitter.
  7. My God, she is an idiot. My first thought when I heard it was that's going to screw up the entire process. How did she get to be foreman?
  8. I liked Pete Franklin too. He was one of the first of those kind of sports talk show hosts. It was funny when he did it. Now, that kind of thing has gotten really old and common place.
  9. I had access to Boston, Detroit, New York, Cleveland, Philadelphia,St. Louis (really far away, but a strong signal), Pittsburgh, Baltimore, Cincinnati. On really good nights, I could get Atlanta and Chicago. I remember really getting excited when I got Minnesota once, but that was an oddity.
  10. This is the year Boyd finally puts it all together.
  11. I don't think he has been captured by anyone. He is an out of touch person born into wealth and needs constant attention.
  12. No, they aren't going to DFA him. If anything they will play him too much. I am not "super concerned", but my preference is that they give more at bats to players who migjht be able to help when they do have a good team.
  13. It seems like his farewell tour has already lasted 6 years.
  14. Everybody on the roster should be getting at bats over Cabrera. The idea this year is to find out who can contribute in the future. Cabrera can't. Guys like Baddoo, Carpenter and Vierling might.
  15. I wouldn't be so sure. She is not very bright.
  16. When in his life has Trump ever been ignored? He has acted out and gotten attention for 75 years.
  17. Great mustache, but just good when adjusted for era.
  18. Bando had a low batting average, but was a great player in his prime. He got on base, had pretty good power and was a good defender.
  19. I think they were serious. They are just typical fans that watch a little baseball during the season and then go on to the next sport. Only a small percentage of fans follow the Tigers the way we do here.
  20. Several years ago, Bank of America called me and offered to add extra protection to my money for $150. I told them they were supposed to be doing that already why the hell would I put money in your bank if I thought it wasn't reasonably safe. I wonder how many people fell for that con?
