Tiger Cubs (notes on the minors)

[RatkoVarda]

pretty sure that's 10 no-hit innings in a row over the last 3 starts for Jobe

[casimir]

Could be his liver.

Toledo scores six in the first. Madden making his AAA debut.

thanks; did not know that; 25% K rate is a huge improvement, but just 18 games so far. Workman offers so much: speed, defense, some power, versatility - just needs to get his Ks to a managable level

If I recall correctly, he started off well last year after working with Carpenter’s hitting coach during that offseason.  Fell back to his norm in 2023, so hopefully something clicks for him.  He’s not the type of hitter this administration would draft, so he probably has this season to emerge from organizational depth.

Jobe to the IL

[Tiger337]

At least, it's not an arm injury.

Bigbie .235/.299/.347 68 WRC+
Dingler .227/.293/.409 76 WRC+

Campos .250/.333/.329 86 WRC+
Graham .121/.271/.172 36 WRC+ (A .167 BABIP may be one of the lowest I have seen)

Low A
Clark .267/.380/.373 128 WRC+
McGonigle .333/.478/.444 179 WRC+ (To be fair this is 6 games)

Campbell .242/.324/.468 128 WRC+

Jobe's injury is being listed as a left hamstring strain. 

[1776]

Erie is in Richmond the last week of this month. I hope he’s back in the rotation by then.

I get excited when I see Erie scores 11 runs, until I realize that our own version of Crash Davis was responsible for 7 of those runs.

I bet that case he was carrying has his high-falutin' shoes in it.  I'm surprised it's not handcuffed to him.

That’s just a lunchbox.  Bologna sandwich.  Ecto cooler flavored Kool Aid box.  Bag of Doritos, probably cool ranch.  Apple.

Not sure that’s the right dimensions for a clarinet.  Looks different than my kid’s, anyway.

Lakeland's starting lineup sans Max Clark.

 

(Max Clark not Maxx Clark... sorry, visions of Maxx Crosby were dancing in my head...)
