But really sucks for kids who will be in class for at least the first hour of each game. I'm old enough to remember all World Series games being daytime affairs. No playoffs, win your league and advance, none of this division hooey. Thankfully someone always managed to sneak a transistor radio into class. Occasionally a teacher would bring a TV into class and declare a "reading period". 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1776 Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 An absolute must read piece on Skubal and his family by Stavanhagen. Pieces like this make the subscription worth the price. https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5804270/2024/09/30/tarik-skubal-tigers-cy-young-brother/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He simply said: "History is in the making", turned on the TV, and sat down to watch with us.

monkeytargets39 Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 (edited) Good news- my aunt has very mild covid, so since you all post here- that counts as close contact with me and that means you need to stay home from work to isolate the next 72 hours Edited September 30 by monkeytargets39 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandyMarsh Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 Ironic that Kay is doing a Skubal start when 2 years ago he went off on the Yankees for getting shutout by this "nobody" in Tarik Skubal. He caught a lot of heat for that on social media cause while Skubal wasn't proven yet in the majors he was arguably the top left handed pitching prospect in baseball a year or 2 prior. If that would've been a Yankee he would've been looked as a big deal just based off his prospect pedigree and not a "nobody". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montero has certainly been trending in the wrong direction. I suppose in the end, when in doubt, go with Velo - which of the guys on the bubble would be Mize.

Tigermojo Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 It will be Olson and Hurter getting bulk innings anyway. Montero could be in for longer rounds. If Mize is in a game, things are probably not going as planned. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
