Dtrain72 Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 Riley Greene is here! All of our baseball prayers shall be answered! Quote
Motor City Sonics Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 (edited) If I'm named GM today, I............. Send Torkelson Down (i haven't given up, but he needs to fix something) Send Clemens Down (clearly, he's not ready) Send Haase down (are they keeping him because he's a local guy?) DFA Grossman (not part of the future, no need to clog a spot) DFA Schoop (looks like he's sleep walking) Re-activate Daz Cameron (might as well see what we've got and if he can improve) Activate Candelario (maybe he gets hot, maybe someone wants him in a trade) Call up Westbrook (hitting .329 since May 19th) Call up Garneau (better than Haase Call up Kerry Carpenter (is he ready? probably not, but he can't be worse, they need some power from somewhere) I'm trying anything I can to shake up this team. Maybe this sparks something, anything. I don't really care, I am making big moves to see if this team has any life in them at all. This team is so damaged right now that there aren't very many things I wouldn't try. Everyday lineup 1b - Harold Castro 2b - Willi Castro ss - Javy Baez 3b - Jeimer Candelario c - Tucker Barnhart rf - Victor Reyes cf - Riley Greene lf - Kerry Carpetner dh - Miguel Cabrera Bench - Westbrook, Garneau, Cameron Batting order..........I have no idea. Baez no higher than 7th, if he doesn't like it, earn it. Edited June 18, 2022 by Motor City Sonics 1 Quote
RaceDog Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 I'm calling for a HUGE outburst of runs for the Tigers today to celebrate Riley Day at C Park..... Tigers lose after scoring an amazing 3 runs....10-3. The wheels have fallen off the pitching staff cart. 1 Quote

Motor City Sonics Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 Does Riley Greene become the first Tiger born in the 21st Century? Quote
Motor City Sonics Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 I think Candy is ready to come back. He is hitting .385 at Toledo. He seems to be fine. With Greene coming up, does that mean Kerry Carpenter is going to move from Erie to Toledo? Quote

Ouch! you're gonna reap just what you sow. (such a perfect day, watch windmills at the park and then later when it gets dark, it's a loss) Quote
Motor City Sonics Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 So if they break out of this slump with a major offensive output, do they keep wearing the Stars jerseys? I like the Stars jerseys Quote
Nerb Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 I actually like Haase at cleanup. Lets get crazy with it. Who cares at this point. Worst that could happen is somebody gets going Quote
Nerb Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 Also like benching Harold after he quit on that catchable foul ball yesterday. More of that please. Quote

If he doesn't revert that could be his ticket to AAA. Unfortunately the rest of his hitting has also fallen off in June - OPS back to ~720 for the month Edited June 18, 2022 by gehringer_2 Quote

Worst that could happen is somebody gets going It's an incredibly small sample size because he doesn't play much, but he has looked from the eye test to be less clueless at the plate than some of the others over the last week or so. But that's not saying much with how awful they have been lol Quote

But that's not saying much with how awful they have been lol I've felt the same about Haase's last few at bats. Also, he's apparently stepped up vocally in the clubhouse when nobody else seemingly would. Let him go out there and try and find it again, I say. Quote
Nerb Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 The less Tucker at this point the better for me. Would love to see Rogers return in September and make Barnhart truly expendable. Dreaming, I know. Quote

Another case of after 20 years of being in charge of drafting and scouting, this organization has not produced it's own viable starting catcher, other than his own son. Quote

Motor City Sonics Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 every single day is Pick On Al Avila Day until he's gone. What if they get shut out again this weekend? What if they make another journeyman pitcher look like an Ace? Who invented liquid soap, and why? Quote

kdog Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 The Tigers have announced the following roster moves: *Claimed C Ali Sanchez off waivers from St. Louis and optioned him to Triple A Toledo *RHP Jacob Barnes cleared waivers and has been granted his release Quote
theroundsquare Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 Sanchez seemed to be performing okay in AAA, I wonder why that stupid fucking team in St. Louis (fuck those guys) cut him loose Quote
