  1. Maybe Cade should sit again and see what happens? /s
  2. Yesterday, a worker had her nose in her telephone at the grocery store and slammed right into me. And today is the 150th year anniversary of Alexander Bell inventing the telephone.
  3. The defense on this US team is amazing. Judge looked like Al Kaline throwing a BB to gun a runner out at 3rd base from RF. And Bobby Witt Jr really flashing some leather.
  4. It's his consistency. Next game, he could just as easily give up multiple runs. I still say he's a good SP as a #6 to #7 option. Kinda nice to have him stretched out and waiting.
  5. Yeah, I made a point of innocent people being named in the files not necessarily guilty of anything. Some totally innocents may get caught up by just being mentioned in emails. Even though I think Trump is a pervert and is as guilty as, or more, than Epstein. But proof and feelings are totally different. A guy who brags about walking in on teenagers dressing is pretty much admitting he's a sick pervert. But, I guess that's just my opinion.
  6. Anzalone to Tampa Bay on a 2 year contract
  7. A 26 year old center, signed for 3 years!! https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/cade-mays-agrees-to-three-year-deal-with-lions
  8. Is it better to charge 50 people with 5 being totally innocent or to ignore the 45 who committed crimes? If there really were photos and videos, I'm sure they've all been destroyed by now. After all, Trump says, even though his name appears thousands of times in the files, he's been totally exonerated.
  9. Investigate? Not with Trump in charge. Any and all investigations are tarnished. This country really needs democrats to sweep the midterms so The Donald can be impeached...after legitimate investigations. But as it is, he has people in charge who are more than willing to bury his crimes. The corruption is very wide spread and total.
  10. I always hear talking heads say certain players "tuned heads" during spring training when they get called up because if injury or other needs. I guess this is, or could be, an example?
  11. Good work and very interesting. But could we afford all of those signings?
  12. But back end of the bullpen guys don't have the luxury of working on pitches when they're in stiff competition for that final roster spot. At least, most of the time.
  13. Who's spot do you think he'll take?
  14. In competition for open roster spots, stats are an indicator of which player is having more success over another player. A back end bullpen arm open spot? One pitcher gives up 15 spring runs, the other give up 2 runs? That's a very good indication for fans to compare when they make roster predictions. It's been that way...forever. ๐Ÿ˜†
  15. Every single year, on every single team, fringe players compete for the last spots on a major league roster. Utility players, bullpen arms and sometimes even starting position players, on some teams. A horrible spring by one player may open the door for another player, at times. This Tiger team, this season, has most of it's lineup set, there is little competition. CF may not be handed to Meadows, it may be Javy out there on opening day. I really like the defense and speed Meadows brings but he has to hit, at least a little bit. If Kevin does make the team, he won't sit on the bench, he'll be our starting SS. And that opens the door for Javy to play CF. We'll see what happens.... Your question doesnt have an answer unless you specify which players, which position or which team. A starting player like Riley? He's our starting left fielder, no matter what. Of course, unless he's injured.
  16. Donald pardoned this guy. Just so he could be free to do some unspeakable acts; https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/mar/05/capitol-rioter-life-sentence-molesting-children
  17. We have this discussion every spring. And every spring, back end of the bullpen arms who do well in ST games make the team. The same with the last bench utility spots. And then, after a few weeks, some changes are made, guys get called up and other guys are demoted. Most teams have competition for a couple of spots.
  18. Wow....I looked it up here...it's almost $18 per pound...if they even had it. It says "item unavailable" Yeah, I would skip it too. Thats crazy...
  19. His defense may keep him on the team, we'll see. But my point wasn't about the established players or pitchers. Yes, they are making tweaks that may cause their small sample size numbers to look bad but I meant the fringe players and the kids. If Kevin was really struggling in his spring at bats, it may have meant starting the season in Toledo. As it is, he looks like he may be our starting SS. Opposite for Clark, the kid looks totally overmatched. For these types of players, spring results really do matter. Small sample size or not.
  20. It's actually at a good price here in Metro Detroit...$4.49 a pound for Corned Beef Brisket.
  21. The good news is if the Pistons keep playing like this, we won't have to worry about Boston. ๐Ÿคจ๐Ÿคจ
  22. Parker Meadows agrees....from Toledo. ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…
