  1. Maybe the reporter had inside information? Holland was allowed to play. 😀
  2. Yeah, I guess it doesnt matter who Harris trades for, starters or relievers. He's probably not even going to make any big deals, he hasn't made any significant trades. It would be nice if he were to bring in some pitching but Mize and Melton will both be back. And JV still may contribute, we just don't know. JV to the pen? That would be...dramatic.
  3. The last few losses are all from AAA arms that Hinch is forced to use. During Sunday's game, Jason mentioned the heavy use of the BP meant Skubal would have to go deep in his start. And yes, Madden did a fine job but it was the next AAA pitchers who lost the game for us. Hinch really is limited with what he can do. Young pitchers who are inconsistent will drive managers (and fans) crazy.
  4. Falling behind hitters forces him to groove fastball and hitters are mostly squaring him up. You're correct, his curve isn't landing for strikes. That makes him very hittable.
  5. It's time for Harris to swing a trade for a quality SP, or two. I've seen enough of these AAA arms, they're literally costing up games.
  6. Still, it wouldnt surprise me one bit if he was back in 3 weeks or so. Whatever Schilling want thru is meaningless, IMO. I'm not expert but it seems like every case would be different. With millions of dollars on the line, Skubal needs to be as close to 100% before competing again. Again, just an opinion.
  7. A reporter in the Free Press this morning speculated that Ron Holland will be getting important minutes in this Cavs series.
  8. I was joking that the Pistons would extend JB. Now the Free Press says they did extend him but no details. Prolly 2 years?
  9. I was optimistic before reading this but even more so now. Tarik is a bulldog. He'll be back very quickly;
  10. Hey Danielle, what happens when that cut out gets wet? 🤪🤪
  11. They're pitching for the Tigers. These AAA guys aren't gonna cut it, can't Harris bring in some waiver wire pitchers?
  12. AAA pitchers create stress.
  13. Hits? We dont need no stinkin' hits. We gonna beat the BoSox.
  14. The Red Sox are offensively challenged.
  15. Dollars to donuts he'll be back by July 1st. As long as we stay close, we'll be fine. Looking outside, the sky is still there, it hasn't fallen.
  16. Hinch is smart, giving our LH hitting rookie a day off against a LH pitcher. Rookies usually wear down during their first full season, it's more games they've ever played.
  17. I would bet Skubal will make it back much quicker than anybody can guess. Weeks...not months. That's my mindset...not going out on a ledge.
  18. Jung out of position, against a LH pitcher? No thank you, hard pass.
  19. PH him if (when) we get the bases loaded. He doesn't swing at many bad pitches and he puts the ball in play.
  20. And "The End" by the Doors.
  21. Correction...2-2 against them. The 1st one I counted was an exhibition game.
  22. Pistons were 2-3 against Cleveland this season?
  23. Unless there's a miracle comeback, its gonna be Cleveland at Detroit. Toronto was playing them close until the 3rd, when it seemed like they kept taking, and missing, 3 pointers.
