[gehringer_2]

Chafin with 1IP at Lakeland. 1H and 3 outs.

At Toledo Hill was 1/3 and played CF.

Progress.

The outfield should improve as Akil Baddo needs to grab some bench for a bit.

Does Ilitch has own a piece of the DMC or what? This is getting ridiculous.

Mize might not need surgery now but, given his history, I think we should all shift our expectations to include a future missed season for TJ.

"Hit the ball where no one is". I have been told that hitters can't do that and that's why it's impossible to beat the shift.  

So much for "keep your lead shoulder tucked, and push the ball to the opposite field" ?

Or Rod Carew's "use the whole field" strategy

Stavenhagen's cohost really thinks analytics have debunked l/r platoon splits? Dude continues to be just clueless. Right down to his pronunciation of Detroit.

Was it an honest conversation or was it a poor attempt at playing devil's advocate?

Oh God, I hate it so much.

At least when James Mason said it, he had the excuse of being a haughty Brit lol

If you can't pronounce the city North of Windsor Ont with 3 syllables, you have no business broadcasting Hockey in Canada.

Alright.  That's the literal tone that I took from it, but I guess I couldn't believe what I was hearing.

Well, at least they've gotten away from the date chatter.  Sort of.

Perfect

An American broadcaster says Toe-ron-toe with very dry precise letter t's.  Canadian is a bit musher, a bit more Irish, and it comes out closer to Cheronto.  Same with Mawn-tree-all versus Munch-ree-all.
