Skubal:  "I'ma finna pitch my ass off so I can gtf out of here and get traded to a real team"

Castro:  "not so fast!"

Skubal: "whelp"

Nice catch by Victor to finally end this odyssey of an inning.

Can we add the two runs to Harold Castro’s ERA?

[mtutiger]

Nice play for Victor Reyes.... 

Bad defense probably just shortened Skubs day there

[Tigerbomb13]

It will be a good day when we no longer have a Castro on this roster.

and back to a 10-pitch, 1-2-3 inning for Skubal. nice.

well, someone on this team ought to get mad. Javy nonchalants a throw last night, Harold drops on today,....

[RandyMarsh]

Skubal with 3 walks and only 2ks with a mere 4 swings and misses. Not good. 

[mtutiger]

Jeimer on a roll!

[Biff Mayhem]

This is the most money I’ve ever paid to attend a little league game. 

[chasfh]

Look, I’m glad Miggy’s got his singles stroke back so he can hit near .300 and everything, but man, what a complete liability he is on the bases. Can’t get from first to third on what should have been a double down the line, then gets caught sleepwalking past third base on the fielder’s choice. And since he’s the 800-lb gorilla, no one can say anything to him except, “that’s OK, big fella, you’ll get ‘em next time.”

[gehringer_2]

Skubal out. Right move.

Coming in to today he has a 1.500 OPS the last 15 days and a .923 for the month of July.

I smell trade bait.

[chasfh]

At least Skubal won’t get the L. Harold should still buy him a big steak dinner tonight.

[Dtrain72]

So is it still ok to think Al sucks if Grossman is still on this team by this time next week?  Asking in lieu of the few remaining Avila apologists here....

[mtutiger]

lol

What do you get for the Candyman?

Possibly but I believe the Tigers should keep him just cause I don't think they would get much in return anyway. I think there is a better chance Jeimer bounces back close to his 2020/2021 levels and helping the Tigers the next couple years than whatever C level prospect we get turning into anything.

There are Al apologists here?

Any other GM but AA? Some kinfd of upper tier pipeline talent. With AA? Bag of balls and double bubble.
