chasfh Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 He didn't exactly crush that grounder, but at least Riley has gotten us off the base hit schneid. Riley has made a lot of good things happen by charging down the line toward first this year so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tenacious D Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Where analytics have failed—people trying to distract by identifying a silver lining out of exit velo, hard hit rate, BABIP, etc…. All great, but at the end of the day it’s about results. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichiganCardinal Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Is it an overreaction to think this team may be historically bad? Like near 2003 territory? The only thing that kept people from going quite that far is that the offense couldn’t possibly be worse than 2022. Well…… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they could win 75 games a week ago, but now I think 100 losses is definitely a possibility. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is more of a character-building year for everyone involved. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IdahoBert Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 I haven’t been around here in quite a while because I don’t have much positive to say and I don’t want to be like the trolls I used to enjoy banning. But the negative comment I do have to share is that I was wondering how the Ilitch family cannot feel ashamed at what they’ve done to this team and I realize that as really really really rich kids they probably have a pretty thick skin about being disliked. I suppose that Mike as complicated and unsaint like as he most likely was, was at least capable of shame which made him care two shits instead of none. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gehringer_2 Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 So far Foley is perfect through, 3/3 inherited runners scored. 'Lineup flexibility' has netted us zero runs and non 3b Maton was just unable to make another play that led to a run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
