Dan and Jim talking through the options to shake things up...

Again, it takes a commitment to DFA someone already on the roster. Not gonna happen.

You know the minute they cut Robbie Grossman he goes to a contender and produces at an MVP rate.

Had this set to record. just got to where I could turn it on. Not gonna bother. With Skubal and Faedo having lost their starts we are looking at 3 more losses before another decent shot at a win, which would make it a 7 game losing streak.

The big conversation today is Parkinson's Disease in loo of baseball.

I was diagnosed with Parkinson's several years ago, I don't want to watch baseball and listen to that shit.

But there isn't much baseball to talk about with the Tigers playing.

I've been about as patient as anyone here has been, but yeah, this team is going nowhere fast.

I like how Dan and Jim have now basically resorted to saying that, offensively, nobody is worth keeping on this team, without actually, directly saying it...yet.

Can we skip ahead to the part where Dan and Jim go against corporate?

He has been on for an hour ? Crazy and so unprofessional. Is it a talk show or a  baseball game ?

This is becoming a more common adjective to describe the broadcast.

I wonder, why hasn’t the sports media around Michigan turned the heat up on this crappy organization? Do they give a crap? Am I missing something?

I would suggest hiring Joe Girardi to replace AJ Hinch, however under Girardi’s tutelage, the Phillies defense was no better than the Tigers defense.

Would you keep Al?

Don’t know if you’re missing anything, per se, but you might be forgetting that local sports media rely on access to the team, their players, their coaches, and their officials, to produce their product. Go against that as a beat reporter and you lose that access. For proof of that, see Fenech, Anthony.

Nothing against the guy because he truly is a genius and knows his shit, but when Tom House is the highlight of your broadcast, the product just sucks.

I was thinking the same thing.  Maybe in tomorrow's game they can get a retired librarian to come in and explain the dewey decimal system in great detail.  While I'm complaining, I'm getting really sick of hearing Matt Shepard say "crooked number."   At this point I'm ready to fire the whole team including the announcers.  Can't the Tigers bring up a TV guy from the minors and give him or her a chance?  Shepard is the absolute worst.

They're worried about access, like all media. Although there was a bit of a subtle tone change speaking to the lack of offense in AJ's presser after the Toronto series.

firing AJ and keeping avila would be a very chris illitch thing to do.  actually, illitch will do nothing because that's the easiest and cheapest thing for him to do.
