Tiger337

I don't remember. I thought it was an abbreviation, but that could have just been what people called him.

yeah, I did wonder if QSlvr was Nate Silver. That was before Nate was famous and they were very similar. I remember Q used to debate with Jake a lot which was entertaining.

The Tigers have too many white guys who grew up in middle class suburban families and played for travel teams. They never had to work for anything. Too soft.

Cold weather does affect hitting, but the Tigers don't hit well in any weather.

He could be protecting Rogers' arm by limiting his playing time early in the year.

Interesting. My impression was that he was just an entertainer who didn't really believe all the stuff he said. What I'm reading the lst day or two suggests otherwise. I have never really watched him closesly, just clips here and there.

He was making money off him. Now, he's losing money because of him.

Yeah, he'll go elsewhere and do fine. He's not as stupid as some of the others and might be verstaile enough to tone it down at a more moderate network. Or he could go all NewsMax.

A bunch of them are going at the same time, so I'm guessing they have been fired. Their lies cost Murdoch too much money.

How about useful?

But isn't that what all Republican Presidents are paid to do? It was easier for Trump to do because he had a 100% Republican Congress.

What makes Trump appealing to fiscal conservatives? He hasn't been fiscally conservative his whole life. He has always been in massive debt (the king of debt) and then he added hugely to the national debt as President. He also imposed big tariffs and then bailed out corporate farmers when the tariffs failed.

Is that a real video? It looks doctored, but I've seen a couple different versions of it and they look the same.

It's Lloyd McClendon.

Not MLB, but still worth watching

Trump would have no problem running as a Democrat if he thought he could win.

He probably went home already.

Then we can pump them and talk about how much depth is in the system.

I think they lack talent. Bad hitters can't adjust. They hit just as bad before the organization stated focusing on staying in the zone.

So, McKinstry still can't get on base at the base at the major league level, but he's one of their leading sluggers. Take what you can get, I guess

Nobody on the roster is projected to have an OBP above .325, so there really are no other optuons.

Doesn't being an asshole and not caring about people make him a good MAGA candidate?

You forgot Matt Wheatland.

I do think the current franchise is in better shape than it was after Smith was done. On the other hand, the general drafting process has a little more certainty to it than it did 20 years ago, so it is a little easier to draft now. I think the difference between Avila and Smith was that Avila seemed to have an overall plan (although executed poorly). Not only did Smith execute poorly, but he never really seemed to have a plan.

Matt Anderson may have been the dumbest #1 pick in MLB history. I remember being excited that they had the first pick in the draft. Then they signed a relief pitcher? Not a starter who might wind up as a relief pitcher, but just a relief pitcher! I couldn't believe it. Now, the Jobe pick was less than brilliant, but at least his upside was not relief pitcher.
