  1. Sommers cannot be outrighted until March because he was added to the 40-man after August 15. It won't be him.
  2. I forget where I saw it and lost the tab, but Tyler Mattison said he is re-signing with the Tigers "after the Rule 5 Draft." I'm still waiting on those transactions (Darnell and Little too), as well as the Anderson/Finnegan/Jansen signings going official.
  3. If Trump doesn't make you deranged, that says something more about the person not deranged.
  4. Anybody else, when really looking forward to something ever count backward to find something that happened the same amount of time in the past as that event in the future you are looking forward to? Anyways... November 11, 2022.
  5. Headed out the door... it was something I passively saw on my timeline and surprised it came from the Atlantic. Might have just been a bad headline. I think it was the Sheerer piece a month or so ago at a glance.
  6. If only we could use AI to repurpose Pepe Lepieu episodes into Trump...
  7. They also did a giant puff peace on RFK a couple weeks ago that gave me pause on a possible subscription.
  8. Fun fact about Jansen is he is a lifelong close friend of an old intramural teammate of mine.
  9. So... Jansen being a borderline HOF-er (seriously, a bit easier for relievers to get in) has me thinking: who are the most likely 2026 Tigers to be hall of famers? I'd say: 1. Skubal 2. Jansen 3. McGonigle 4. Greene?
  10. This assumes the Florida Democratic Party doesn't trip over themselves.
  11. Not in the same boat (but who the hell knows?). It bugs me a bit (Severance) but I also understand the scheduling challenges these days. Not a full time job for these people, and they have to have schedules aligned. It's the price for quality.
  12. Lee coming at this like a data scientist, and it is interesting to read through that lens. I just think the "who acquired the player" criterion ignores a big part of the equation, but that other part is a little less objective so I can see null hypotheses not being disproven...
  13. Chris Shelton was not a Randy Smith acquisition.
  14. There was a good article in Wapo on this topic a couple weeks ago I've been meaning to dig up and post in here... Basically, there are ways to effectively use it for Health Care. https://wapo.st/44rq0LQ
  15. Shoutout Athletic comment sections...
  16. I wonder about the timeline of when his wife started tracking him on the phone. Is this a long standing thing? If so, how was he able to hide this affair? If recent, did something prompt it?
  17. That leak to Auerbach reeks of somebody being frustrated that Manuel is safe.
  18. The draft lottery has really changed the incentive structure around tanking. The value of draft picks is pretty high at the top of the draft, but the worst teams are not guaranteed to get those picks, and also get blocked out of the lottery if they win too often. The math has changed for the better.
  19. Reeks of CTE...
  20. Looks fake...
  21. I am curious if Rockies Rule 5 pitchers have a lower likelihood of sticking. It seems like the altitude would force a few more pitching emergencies and roster moves increasing the likelihood of a crunch.
  22. I thought it was Sartori who headed that up. Menzin was largely out of the analytics side by the time Avila was in charge.
  23. I like this. Make GOP go on the record defending antivaxism. Won't go anywhere til 2027, just in time for Hep B and Polio to make their comebacks.
  24. But did he fully empower him, or hamper him with old school edicts/keeping staff in place to "balance things."
  25. It's pretty clear based on industry consensus from myriad articles that the Tigers were way behind on Player Dev at a time it was really taking off in the industry. The turnaround started when Garko took over for Littlefield, and went into overdrive when Harris took over.
