Sale was none too happy with his performance in a rehab start...

Sale should stick to cutting up jerseys.

There's very few players in the league that are more unlikable than Sale. Whether he really is one or not he atleast comes across as a total dick!

I prefer to think he was just practicing some Feng Shui in the clubhouse.

He's such a prick.   Cutting up uniforms and the whole binoculars bit with Victor Martinez and there were few things sweeter than this moment.   (and not only that, it reminds us of a time when we actually had decent announcers - good call by Mario and great chuckle by Rod the second he hit it).     Now that Brett Gardner is gone, he is the single biggest prick in baseball all by himself.  I hope his comeback fails just so we can see more tantrums from this five year old.   SUCK ON THIS, SALE !!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, what a thrill.  I've never seen that before.

I still say that moment was the last time Comerica was really rocking and felt like the "good ole days" when the Tigers were good.  Yeah Cabrera's 3000 hit was a great moment and all but it didn't have the same type of feeling or energy.imo

I remember playing under the lights all through my teenage years and never "losing one in the lights" but I did lose one once in the setting sun in Fort Erie, just across the river from Buffalo.  I was playing right field, looking due west into a blazing sunset, and a lefthanded batter hit a line drive at me and I lost it immediately, so I had to set up where I thought the ball was headed and it hit me in the forearm which was pretty good route recognition on my part, I thought at the time.  Most importantly though, it did not hit me in the nuts.

Ha ha ha, that's funny, Ben Verlander getting on Angel Hernandez.  That tells you what the players think about him.

[LongLiveMaroth]

Quite the haul for KC and the 35th pick 👀

I remember playing first base at sunset.  The manager tried to give me sunglasses, but I am near sighted.  I survived.

Last years 1st round pick for the Marlins decided to make a machine gun style motion towards an ump during a minor league game; he has been away from the team since.

Watson has 99 K’sin 231 AB’s.  I like Pacheco better at this point.

Since when can teams trade picks?

[RatkoVarda]

Competitive Balance Picks can be traded (one time); Avila included one in Meadows trade

[RandyMarsh]

Yeah the Tigers also traded one back in the Anibal Sanchez trade some 10+ years ago, I think that was the first year it started.

Tigers and Marlins swapped CBPs; first time a draft pick was ever traded

Lots of people suggesting in the media that he should be fired but there isn't any announcement out there.  Maybe it's true but I always keep in mind that Rosenthal traded JD Martinez just about every week for 6 months.

I thin Alex Bregman deserves consideration.

Trevor Bauer is technically still in the league.
