  1. I think Baddoo's best is starting outfielder. He was already very close last year and that was after skipping two levels of the minors. I consider him the third young hitter most likely to succeed after Greene and Torkelson.
  2. Trump is a perfect example of someone who should be red flagged from having a gun. Furthermore, people who put of up props like this should be red flagged.
  3. We can hope that it's another situation like the Fielders where son mirrors dad.
  4. McCoskey is way better on the radio than he is in print.
  5. I wouldn't totally give up on Cameron especially given that his father was a late bloomer. However, he really hasn't shown much so far.
  6. A good radio broadcaster can make it almost watchable.
  7. Ultimately, it depends if it's their guy or not. if their guy was in the military, then it's a big deal. If it's the other team, then they'll find a way to knock down his service.
  8. Greiten was a Navy Seal, so it would take a Marine to criticize him and be taken seriously by many people.
  9. I agree with all of this. I also think they dejuiced the balls for a few years to show that testing was working.
  10. This is the year he finally hits for power!
  11. Just another MAGA psychopath. This shit is fully mainstream now.
  12. Henning might finally be right about the dimensions. It never used to play liked a pitcher's park, but the home run factor has been way down the last couple of years and probably this year too. I like it though. What they need is a front office who can design a team for the park.
  13. It will take a few years before we find out. Hopefully, there is new management by that time
  14. The newest member of MotownForums is "LongLiveMaroth" 🙄
  15. Imagine being able to do what Cuban is doing but deciding to scam your supporters out of hundreds of millions of dollars because your coup failed
  16. I remember Rizzuto from the 80s. He was actually funny and he always had a smart straight man partner like Bill White or Tom Seaver, so it never bothered me. If you're going to be a goof, you have to know how to do it.
  17. Another scorcher for Torkelson. Two hits on the day.
  18. Jackson was indeed a good player for four years, but when a lot of your game depends on speed, it doesn't taken much to derail your career.
  19. They know a lot more than me. I am generalizing. I would want to know if other teams thought similarly to the Tigers about Jobe/Mayer. It seems risky.
  20. I am also in favor of building through position players more than pitchers. If there is a pitcher at your pick that is obviously the best pick, then you take him. When in doubt, go with the position player.
  21. The problem is that number is going to go way down in a couple of months when the hearings are forgotten. The event will then become something that didn't really happen because things like that can't happen in America. Trump was the President of the United States, so he couldn't have been that bad.
  22. I assume you mean Pete Davidson? Liberals often apolgize for their transgressions. Conservatives rarely do that because they see apologizing as a weakness. Tucker Carlson has been insulting Crenshaw for his eyepatch and you will not see him apologizing nor his fans calling him to do so. You may have been thinking of Pete Franklin, the old Cleveland radio talk show host, who was perhaps the first caustic irreverent sports talk show host. He was pretty entertaining at the time. Now everybody is like that and they all suck.
  23. I tend to jump around to different games rather that watch the Tigers for three hours and it seems as if every night some team is wearing a special uniform. It is confusing and I don't like it. The uniform is part of team identification and if they change it all the time that gets lost. Like Chasfh said, I prefer the traditional whites with an easily identifiable logo or team name font. That doesn't mean every team has to have that traditional white uniform. Some teams can be a little different, but I like to see consistency. If they choose a blue uniform, wear that uniform every day for several years. I think it's OK to mix it up for a limited number of games each year, but those alternate uniforms should be related to baseball history. The Negro League uniforms are good and occasional throw back uniforms are good.
