And we're not scoring runs or hitting homers. Got it....pure logic. Hold on...Eric Haase hit 22 homers last year. His MLB track record before and after 2021 says it's not repeatable. Haase has done nothing offensively this year. He's not a good defender in either LF or at catcher. Are you arguing we should play him more? That's galaxy brain stuff. They have given Haase plenty of opportunities this season, he has 5 XBH in 85+ at-bats. Edited June 11, 2022 by kdog 1 Quote

The source where they clobber you with the same commercial repeatedly? Apparently, it’s Loan Depot’s turn. I hate hate hate the music playing underneath the customers giving the testimonials. It’s this creepy-sounding vibrato keyboard thing that serves only to distract. I think I figured out exactly why I hate it: it starts out like Clair de Lune, which causes the song to go in that direction in my head, and then it goes in some other direction, and I become very unhappy. The moment I see the commercial start, I go “LALALALA!” very loudly until I can locate the remote and press the mute button. It’s the same as the Draft Kings commercial: the moment I hear the generic studio rock guitars blare out, I race to mute it before the ugly blonde can come on to tell me how I can Make. It. Rain. Absolutely kills me that they can't get any variation in the ads when you stream. Quote

He won't be part of a contending Tigers team based on our trajectory. I'm looking for guys who will be here in a few years. Yeah I definitely agree there's no reason to keep trotting him out there going forward. Quote
Nerb Posted June 11, 2022 Posted June 11, 2022 That Willi double is the type of hit that I don't think has fallen our way yet this year Quote
gehringer_2 Posted June 11, 2022 Posted June 11, 2022 but Tork is certainly suffering the wrath of the BaBIP gods today. Quote

gehringer_2 Posted June 11, 2022 Posted June 11, 2022 Reyes may be a replacement level player, but he sure seems to be in the middle of things a lot for guy with his talent level. Quote

Offensively and defensively. Quote
Motor City Sonics Posted June 11, 2022 Posted June 11, 2022 Did my eyes deceive me or did Javy walk twice in one game? Quote
Motor City Sonics Posted June 11, 2022 Posted June 11, 2022 Soto don't do it the easy way, does he? Quote
gehringer_2 Posted June 11, 2022 Posted June 11, 2022 I don't know which is worse, Soto's inconsistency or the Umps. I guess I'll take the umps. Quote
