oblong Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Looking at their schedule and results on their BR page.... I forgot they started 2-9. then they were 1-11 to start June. That means.... they were..... 71-63 in the other games 😉 Of course every team can do that game so it doesn't mean anything concrete but I think the team is on the upslope. The only reason I point that out is I felt like they could win every game. They were not outmatched and had the players. Not a good team but not a bad one either. It wouldn't take much of a change for htem to lose a game... or win one. But this is the easy part of a rebuild and it's years in the making so it's almost a requirement to get here and to not be here would be blatant disregard of duty.

I agree that kind of selective exclusion of games doesn't mean anything. However, I think in comparing this team to 2021 when they had a similar season in terms of wins and losses, this year was more encouraging. There was a lot of luck in 2021. This year, I believe it was real progress. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This year, I believe it was real progress. I think there was progress as well. Continued successful pitching patchwork. The emergence of 3 everyday position players and a primary catcher. But there is still much work to be done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree they progress alot this year... but i wonder how much of a ceiling is left to ring out of this roster without upgrades (aka free agents or trades) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toddwert Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 awesome moment for Miggy too bad I have to hear the two dill weeds calling it on TV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIguy Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Cool that it hit the wall and bounced back into play so Miggy can keep what is most likely his last home run ball, but I really hope fixing that wall is part of the upgrades they mentioned a couple weeks ago.

I don’t know what there is to fix. If they make the wall shorter then you’d have to do massive structural changes to the seating area in RF. Behind that wall is a concrete barrier and that’s the base of the steps and seating base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZTigersfan Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Man Tork just isn’t going to make it to 30 is he? Some bad ABs these past couple weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oblong Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 The changes they talk about are most likely what they refer to as “enhancing the fan experiences “ which means a corporate sponsored area that will involve fans spending more money.

Motor City Sonics Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 I would say that it's the last Miggy HR, but I have a feeling on Sunday a Cleveland pitcher is going to intentionally serve one up (like McLain to Mantle in '68).

If they removed removed the cutout in right centerfield and just made it a straight shot, they could add 4 rows of seats and match everything up to the existing structure.

chasfh Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 If Miggy can manage to jack two more bombs, then he would have the most career home runs of anyone who has ever played for the Tigers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigermojo Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 I read they changed the rules in 2020. They game will resume where they left it, they will not start over. Miggy's HR will count. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIguy Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Yeah, this game doesn't count if it gets postponed and they would start over tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
