  1. It's this guy's big brother;
  2. They want to make more money by forcing people to come to the ballpark for dinner. What's a hot dog going for there now, about $7?
  3. Well, I never looked at the stats. Just the eye test, their offense scares me. But when pitching shuts them down, their pitching and defense seems suspect. I did say they're beatable, which makes the division more open. KC will eventually fade (I hope).
  4. Have they really? Ramirez scares me, he always seems to burn us. I don't think much of his defense though. I knew the Guardians have been struggling but I assumed it was their lack of quality pitchers. My bad...
  5. Boyd and Norris...together again..🤣🤣 Oops...this post was from last year. My bad...
  6. And talking about trading 2 of them. That may have been the plan all season but the Tigers are on a roll. Making the playoffs is a longshot but so is getting "prospects" for established players. Flaherty, I can see getting traded, he was signed to improve and move at the deadline but trading both of these guys sounds a bit like giving up....before August. SMH
  7. Final note on this completed 4 game series; Colt Keith started and play all 4 games without striking out a single time. Pretty impressive. He's fitting into the 2 hole pretty nicely.
  8. Another training camp body?
  9. I don't think they can trade both of those guys without getting at least 2 starting pitchers back. And that would be a push, we would still be short 2 SP. But we'll see what Harris does, we still have a week.
  10. We already need 2 starting pitchers now. I suppose we could stretch out Faedo and/or Brieske. Maybe Holton. But the choices are pretty limited. I just don't see Skubal getting moved if we trade Flaherty. Another week to go...
  11. Trade Skubal and it practically guarantees they won't win next year or 2026. The Tigers are very thin at starting pitching.
  12. And Montero will be our only remaining starting pitcher. Good plan. Keep Flaherty and Skubal and go out and get another SP. I wanna win now!!
  13. Pitching. Their lineup is championship scary but their pitching is borderline playoff. This division really is open to whichever team gets hot. Why not us? Tigers going to be buyers instead of sellers? Stranger things have happened...
  14. And Riley striking out in 3 out of 4 at bats. This lineup really shouldn't have won today, but...that's baseball.
  15. 10-4 in BP games. Trade all the starting pitchers! 😆
  16. Meanwhile, JV threw a no-hitter, won a WS, and a Cy Young award. But at least the Tigers saved millions of dollars. By all means, trade Skubal for sime more of these highly regarded prospects. 🤔
  17. Does anyone know how bad Manning's injury is? Is he expected back soon? We sure could use a SP, even before we trade Flaherty.
  18. Jason said the Tigers are 9-4 in their last 13 BP games. Go ahead and trade both our starting pitchers, we'll make the playoffs...🤣🤣
  19. Perez was a "can't miss" prospect who...missed.
  20. I didn't know that. Avila was fleeced, totally lopsided.
  21. Is Greene hurting? 3 at bats, 3 strikeouts. Against a RH pitcher. Bummer...
  22. Hinch is a genius. I knew Lukas would be a bullpen weapon. 🤣🤣 Now score about 9 more runs.
  23. Hinch has the AAA pitcher coming into the game in the 3rd inning. The guy should be the very LAST option. Down by 10 runs or up by 10 runs? OK, use him. But, on the road against a very good hitting team? Hinch is showing us the future if the Tigers trade away their only 2 reliable starting pitchers.
  24. Agreed. Like I said, if some team wants him, they'll need to overpay, big time. At least, IMO. LH #1 pitchers don't grow on trees. So I would want at least 2 major league ready position players, a minor league prospect and a couple AA SP prospects. It would have to be a package that's impossible to refuse, not a points close trade
