RandyMarsh Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Micro would be the one to answer this but I wonder how the Tigers compare to other orgs in regards to how they push guys. It feels like they are pretty aggressive but without following all the other orgs closely I really don't know if that is true or not and if it is could it have anything to do with their players not developing right? Perhaps they need to ease off the gas and not challenge guys so quickly if they indeed are more aggressive than other orgs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
microline133 Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 They handle promotions similarly to the vast majority of orgs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gehringer_2 Posted August 19, 2022 Author Share Posted August 19, 2022 (edited) 2nd Erie game a 1-0 shutout win for the Wolves. Wolf with 5 IP 2H 2BB 5K. Meadows with a triple, scored the games only run. Toledo scores 9. Torkelson 3/5 2B BB 2K, 370 OBP for August (and finally breaks over the Mendoza line). Kreidler 1/4 2B 2BB Edited August 19, 2022 by gehringer_2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People have joked many times about the likelihood of seeing Parker before Austin in a Tigers uniform. Not happening, but at this rate, it may end up being too close for comfort lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say that because Parker seems likely to be added to the 40 Man Roster this offseason, thus you may get a spring training photo of him sooner.

RandyMarsh Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 I get the feeling we were sold damaged goods with Meadows, Ill give the Rays the benefit of the doubt in that they may not have known and Austin kept the vertigo problem to himself cause he may not have thought it was a big deal but it got to the point this year where he couldn't hide it anymore. I'm not gonna pretend to know a lot about the disease but I do know people that have it and while they live pretty normal lives their professions don't require them to hit a little round object coming at your at 95mph. I couldn't imagine how difficult that would be if your berrings were just a little off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pushing on the pedals while driving really aggravates it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCalTiger Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Is there any change the Tigers just cut bait with Meadows this off season ? What salary will he have after this year of not playing . Will it still increase ? How do Achilles- both legs- become so sore you can't play during a period if inactivity. I mean injured on the disabled list ? Has that ever happened before ? I am not saying its not real but it is really an outlier. Between him and Rodriguez its been strange for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice game: 6 shutout inn's on 2 hits 1BB and 6 K's. On offense... not much interesting on Offense aside from Parker going 1 for 3 with a double and a SF.
