  1. Uhhh...this series in in Cincinnati
  2. Give him a few years until his draft picks make it to Detroit. At least Avila isn't here any more. We really don't know if Harris is allowed to spend any money or not, seeing him give a 2 year contract to a terrible pitcher doesn't give anyone confidence in his decision making. Maybe he can swing a couple of trades that will improve the team and not increase our low payroll. Yeah...
  3. I tuned in when it was 5-3. Our struggling pitcher imploded and I left the room after turning it off. Keep it close and I would have kept it on. But yeah, it doesn't matter. If the Tiger management doesn't care, why should the fans? Football training camp starts in a few weeks...the Tigers will be relegated to "who cares" status.
  4. OK...so just keep throwing him out there. Who cares if we lose, it's an "evaluation" year anyway. No reason to...try to win. We all need to just keep supporting the team, buy tickets and all of their overpriced merchandise....lmao
  5. So...3 years ago. This makes my point, you have to go back 3 years to see him do so poorly? Probably a rookie. I'm glad to see the Tigers #5 starting pitcher has improved so much. SMH...
  6. Has Manning ever even had as bad if a day as today? Maeda was given a 2 year contract by Harris. This should tell us what kind of a GM Harris is. But sure, forget Manning because he may not do as good as our worst starting pitcher. The bar is set very, very low.
  7. I hear he's good starting in June....errr...after the All Star break. Fans just need patience....jeez...we just won yesterday. What fun would it be if we won every day? Pretty boring...
  8. Agreed. There's no defending Harris if Maeda isn't sent to the bullpen. Bring up Manning to take his spot. Could Matt do any worse? Remember the good ole days when players had to make the team with their performance and weren't handed a spot because of their guaranteed contracts?
  9. That offensive outburst, while great to see, comes at a price. 0, 0, 1, 1, 0....our next 5 game runs.
  10. Has he already had his TJ surgery?
  11. Maybe we could field a little league team and see how many become stars? Hall of Fame players have to start somewhere, right?
  12. Also, Carpenter has been shut back down. He may not be back until next season...
  13. Your ideas would ensure a 100+ loss season. As well as set the franchise back 5 years on their current 40 year rebuild. No thanks...
  14. Well, that was a fun 6 innings. Predictable finish but fun waiting for it.
  15. And there you go...
  16. How bad must that pitcher be? Malloy and Kriedler?
  17. I guess it's better than watching for 7 or 8 innings and then watch our BP blow it.
  18. He won't sign with Detroit because Detroit won't pay him what others will. Getting something for him may be better than the draft pick. The Tigers really need to cut more payroll, Chris needs another 100 million $$.
  19. I was on the phone with my son and the TV sound off. He heard me go "Oof" and asked me if I was OK...lol
  20. Ok...Jason giving it to Petry for going 1-3 in complete games was cute. Petry called himself the Reese Olson of his day...🤣🤣
  21. His velo surprised me today. He was regularly hitting 98 on the radar gun. It looked (and sounded) legit, too. But, IMO, command is the key. A perfectly spotted 92 FB is better than an out of control 98. I like Mize and I think he could be an important piece of our rotation going forward. But, that's just my opinion. We'll see...
  22. With our BP? We should be safe...
  23. Mize hitting 98 MPH consistently. Color me impressed.
  24. What bothers me is watching for 7 or 8 innings and then watching our BP blow it. Especially these west coast games. Deep into the night, into the early morning hours. Makes me not want to watch any more . NFL training camp starts in a few weeks. Just sayin'.... 😆
  25. All I remember hearing was the Tigers pick was between Mize and Brady Singer. And Mize had enough pitches to be a ML SP and Singer didn't, at that point. It's hard to predict young baseball talent a few years into the future.
