I think Kreidler is hurt. They must be having serious conversations about Keith. He could probably skip Toledo. Quote

They promoted Corey Joyce to Toledo rather than Keith. Could be Joyce has more AA experience. Could be Joyce is older. Could be Joyce also plays SS and Toledo needs that option. Maybe Joyce is nothing but minor league filler and he vs Keith isn’t a thing. Quote

Tigermojo Posted May 25, 2023 Posted May 25, 2023 Short has a .917 small sample OPS. They could give him some of those Ibanez and Schoop ABs. They wouldn't be losing any defense. Quote

They have been inconsistent, true. He may turn out to be nothing more than filler. But if they’re done with Ibanez/Schoop and aren’t willing to promote Keith/Malloy or any longer term player, they could promote someone just for the short term, see what they can do in the meantime. If it’s nothing, they can be DFAd later on to make room for someone else, no big deal. Quote
Tigermojo Posted May 25, 2023 Posted May 25, 2023 Riley Greene is going to have pink tape on his bat all year. Quote
casimir Posted May 25, 2023 Author Posted May 25, 2023 Heck, they could try Nevin again since he’s already on the 40. Lipcius, Perez, MeadowsP, are also on the 40. So it would seem unlikely that they add Joyce now. It seems like Joyce’s only benefit ahead of those guys is his SS glove, and the Tigers should be fine with Baez/Maton/McKinstry. Quote
SoCalTiger Posted May 25, 2023 Posted May 25, 2023 Just play Short more consistently first. He’s a solid defender and better than Schoop Ibanez Joyce etc. I mean don’t overdo it but certainly against lefties. Quote

That was probably the longest ball Short has ever hit as major leaguer. Quote

Tenacious D Posted May 25, 2023 Posted May 25, 2023 Good things happen when you force a pitcher to throw a strike. He was 2-0 when he got his hit. Quote
Tenacious D Posted May 25, 2023 Posted May 25, 2023 We’re all gettin’ curly fries tomorrow, bitches! Think of Zach Short as you enjoy them. Quote
chasfh Posted May 25, 2023 Posted May 25, 2023 Man, even when Lange is kind of bad, he’s really good. It’s his time. Quote
