  1. Thats true but Vest only got out of the 7th because of a great catch by Riley on a ball that was crushed. That was a major sign the Vest didnt have his best stuff. So with a totally rested bullpen, Hinch ran him back out there. The blame for this is totally on Vest and Hinch. After Vest walked Trout, he shoulda been pulled. But in a world where a manager isn't asleep, Vest would never have started the 8th.
  2. Neither did our manager. Sitting on his hands while his bullpen is fresh and rested. Is he TRYING to tank? I cant explain his inactivity. Lazy? Or just stupid?
  3. Fire Hinch. What a horrible job of managing a bullpen. Just horrid.
  4. The kid is a special talent. I was worried he hurt himself on that slide into 3rd, a late slide can jam a knee.
  5. Vierling proving RF is his position. We need a CF.
  6. If it were to come down to Flaherty or Montero as our 5th starter, we all know Jack would get the job. We gotta get something for his $20 million.
  7. I feel more confident with him on the mound over Flaherty.
  8. Workman is useless. Situational baseball is beyond his limited ability.
  9. I just read an article about how Max Anderson was on a tear down in Toledo. I wonder how close he is to being ready?
  10. You think we'll win 62 games? 62-100? Well on our way. A finish of 42-67? We're 20-33 now...
  11. I think trading a player on the injured list isn't allowed. Besides, wait for Skubal to get back to form, his value would be higher. Not that Harris will be dealing....he's busy looking over the waiver wire. Find some rejects to sign...
  12. I agree, if Harris is unable to get anything from our pending free agents, he's useless. Its his job to make this team better and it was obvious last fall that we had serious problems scoring runs. So he goes out and spends millions of dollars on pitching. It didnt make much sense at the time and the results are now showing it was foolish. Counting on Tork, Javy and McKinstry to repeat very good years was unreasonable and it should have been obvious to the front office.
  13. Do you really think Harris will be making any deals? Seriously? Or just like me, wishful thinking?
  14. Alonso...lmao. Tried to cheat....KARMA
  15. Surprise stat of the day....Zack Short has 15 career home runs. 13 of them for Detroit. I admit, i dont remember a single one but I guarantee, i was surprised. 😆😆
  16. What significant players has Harris traded or traded for? The sample size of his inactivity is getting larger, he doesnt make many trades. Expecting him to at this trade deadline? Well, fans may be totally disappointed.
  17. Starting pitcher for the Nationals was throwing a no hitter but got hurt after 5 innings. They brought in a reliever and the announcers said he can warm up as long as he needs to. Not true, I saw last year that there actually is a limit on warmups for an injury replacement. I had never heard about a limit but there is one.
  18. The only reason I'll watch is that I like to be hurt. Banging my arm in the car door isn't doing it any more. 🥹
  19. His salary worries me. With his contract, will Hinch be obligated to run him out there every 5 days? Send Montero packing? Ugh...the horror...
  20. Speaking of starting pitchers, how safe is Flaherty? We have a few starting pitchers coming back soon, Melton, JV, Eventually, Jobe and Skubal. Jack may be headed to the BP? I sure hope Verlander is effective...
  21. Its his only choice. He doesn't make trades. If the Tigers are way out of a playoff spot at the deadline, functional teams would trade pending free agents. Get some prospects a bit further along than high school players the draft picks would get you. This may be a good chance for Harris to prove he's a good GM.
  22. I'm starting to notice this new baseball craze, Tarps Off, is only guys. Don't women wanna get in on the fun?
