En****tification at its finest. But on the plus side, these games are available now. When I grew up outside of Michigan in the 90's, I could maybe watch two Tigers games a year. Now I can watch 153. You were already paying for the Tigers games, it was just baked into your cable package.

So even if you didn't have it, the "Free game of the day" during the season wouldn't be free?

You can't just go to the website and pull it up?

The spring games are free on mlb.tv

Agreed, but as a jumping off point, I should put it this way... If innings and innings alone is the only marker, starters should be dropping off 3x as much as relievers. To me, 6 max effort relief outings are much more dangerous than a 6 inning start.

I am saying throwing harder over fewer pitches is worse on the elbow in particular.

Johnny Blue Skies dropped an album in the past hour on Youtube... On Spotify et. al. March 13. The first song is called MAFA...

I just wonder what media diet the people have that are cheering this on like their alma mater has a 2 touchdown lead on their rival.

Fangraphs dropped their Tigers list yesterday. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/detroit-tigers-top-47-prospects/

I don't understand the "Limit guys' innings to protect their arms, but let them max out in relief" strategy...

https://blogs.fangraphs.com/scouting-explained-the-20-80-scouting-scale/ This and many other places say it comes from standard deviations. However, I have a hard time believing the scouting demographic was pushing up their glasses and citing standard deviation when it started being used.

Also Cots and Roster Resource calculated Valdes' deferral wrong, and overshot it by 50,000 or so. I know 100% the number in my sheet is right.

Found the error in Roster Resource CBT numbers. They were off by 10M due to Flaherty's Valley charge, and should have the Tigers under the CBT once they fix it...

Pretty sure he won't do both Fox and NBC.

Yes, the ones that aren't in camp have had friendlies. Each WBC team has several exhibitions the next week before the tournament starts up.
