Who cares what Spencer Turnbull thinks? He was born in Bama, was probably a pampered sports hero his entire life and has a Bible verse on his twitter profile. There was no chance he was going to be anything but what he is. I just hope he can come back and be a good pitcher again next year.

Shortstop looks like the best position again. If they want to make a big splash, they can move Baez to second and sign a shortstop. That would require spening even more money than they did on Baez though, so it problay won't happen.

They need all of them. As seen this year, you can never ever have too much pitching.

Corporate responses are important. They and consumers are what ultimately run the United $tates. Government obviously doesn't care about individual consumers, but corporations have tremendous influence. Their influence is selfish, but can be useful.

Kavanaugh is being empathetic. He's thinking of those males who get drunk and then date rape a woman they just met and get her pregnant. He wants them to be able to send the woman to another state to get an abortion.

This is so beautiful. You can't be for real.

They have apparently met several times.

I haven't watched either, but when does any politician not grandstand? That's what they do.

The Supreme Court ruling on guns sucks. The United State is becoming more barbaric every day.

They could have traded him earlier or extended him. I know that depended on Chris Ilitch spending money, but letting the second best Tigers hitter in the last 40 years get away for nothing was a mistake by the organization.

I remember one early rumor was Martinez for Conforto which would have been OK for a couple years, but no help now.

I think it's an important part of it. I think inflation is high largely because demand is high and supply has some problems. So many people think that presidents control the economy. They don't.

The early 90s was actually a fun team with Tettleton, Phillips and Fielder leading a strong offense. Starting in '94, their pitching was so bad, that they were just hopeless. They also had no minor league system and drafted horribly. As bad as it is now, I think they are in better shape now than they were thern.

Barnhart's career year was 3.6 in 2017. It really was a career year as he has never come close to that again. However, I feel like catcher WAR is not very meaningful as catchers typically don't hit much and catcher defensive statistics are not very useful. Anyway, if he had a .685 OPS this year, we wouldn't be having this discussion. We'd be blaming other players.
-
If he played to his career averages, he would have been fine. People were saying even he hit the way he usually does, he'd still suck which I didn't agree with. This year, he has been far below his expectation.

Because Biden is a baby killing communist who wants to make your children gay.

Thompson is 31 and had an opt out if he found a major league opportunity elsewhere. It is still funny that the Tigers had a hitter that the Dodgers actually wanted.
-
The big unknown with catchers is pitcher management which is really difficult to quantify. How well does he work with pitchers especially youing pitchers? The young Tigers pitchers have performed above expectations this year. Fetter has gotten credit for that, Does Barnhart deserve any credit? I don't know.

Saving money while surviving inflation also requires people to change their approach.

Being healthy is not a God given right.

That's the answer

I think the red hats view this the same way we view NewsMax or Washington Examiner. There is no way to get them to take it seriously. We can only hope the "Rinos" and the Bernie Bros are watching.

Right, It was the "at best" part I didn't agree with. He might not find himself again, but I think he has good upside with a reasonable chance of reaching it.
