Tigers @ Royals Game 89 July 13, 2022

Baez with a double which would have been a triple if he wouldn't have just stared at it for several seconds.
 
This season is more of a disappointment than any of the previous 6. I wasn't expecting anything great but was expecting something close to .500

Pathetic job by everyone involved. From upper management, to AJ, and especially the players that are under performing.

A special F.U. to Eduardo Rodriguez who has been MIA for about a month. Not only is he not communicating with the team, I read that he isn't even communicating with his agent. Void his contract right now!

Royals 5 - Tigers 2: Death by paper cuts.
Tarik Skubal was mostly solid, but a sequence of missteps and blunders in the fourth inning doomed the Tigers.

Tigers are depressing to watch. This team looks years away from contending.
 
This "blogger" is so negative.

The way I look at it.

Keep Candy for one more year.
Baez, Schoop, Tork.

Meadows, Greene, one or two of (Baddoo/Reyes/Castro)

Basically need a catcher and one outfielder.

Holly gets her Tigers info from inside the Tigers hierarchy.

Would you rather read and believe the fake positive spins that the Detroit news media put on everything? That is the Detnews, Freep, and sometimes Mlive.
Jesus even Jason Beck has to put a spin on the title of each end of game story in the Tigers official site.
We have to read things about the Tigers from really outside sources like the Athletic when Ken Rosenthal did his story on how bad the team sucks along with the bullshit being thrown around by Ilitch, Clueless Al, and fuck face Leyland, How the fuck does he still stick his nose into the supposed new order when he is so anti analytics.

I just can't stand how almost every blog is just bashing AA and CI. I get it, but how about something new? I do read the blog every day. I also post on it to give my two cents. That's another thing I can't stand about her blog. They censor it. They remove parts of the comments and in some instances (especially if you disagree with their narrative) they don't even post the comment at all.

That said...I appreciate you posting the links.
 
Year number 7 Elvin Rodriguez followed by Drew Hutchinson This is your major league rotation with Harold and Willie Castro getting regular AB.. and Chris Ilitch proclaiming he is happy with the progress. WTFFFFFFFFFF?????

The final mock drafts from Baseball America and MLB Pipeline each have the Tigers selecting LHP Connor Prielipp from Alabama, who underwent Tommy John Surgery in May of 2021, with the No. 12 overall pick in the MLB Draft this weekend.
What will Clownshoes Al Avila do? drafting a kid who missed 2021 with TJ after overdrafting a HS RHP Jobe instead of SS Marcell Mayer last year, Baseball America is probably correct.

To create a 40-man roster spot for Jose Cisnero, the Tigers have designated RHP Drew Carlton for assignment.
Carlton was still with the club on the taxi squad as of yesterday. He'll now go on waivers for the second time in his career.

The Tigers' rebuild was damaged long before 2017. Is it too late to save it?
97.1 TheTicket

There was no reason to doubt Avila?s potential as GM except: (1) He had been an assistant GM. And (2) he wasn?t ?someone new.? Had another asst. GM from elsewhere been brought in, they would have had a parade. Fact: Whoever took over this situation was staring down a gun barrel.
Either you can evaluate talent or you can?t .. both on the playing side and the executive side.. he?s been an abomination in both areas.. 7 years ..it?s Millen like.

I have been on the get rid of Avila bandwagon since day 1. That said, it is, also, on the owner and his team of advisors, for keeping him here when it was clear he was not up to the task. Problem is, Ownership will turn to the very guys who recommended him to find his replacement.

DET with the 25th best record in MLB .411 winning percentage and a 65 win pace..IN YEAR 7.

Tom I don't make many comments at TT because they only allow 3 sentences or something like that most of the time and they will censor if you write something derogatory.

For example I said my old favorite that Al Avila needs a toupee with some brains in it, and it was censored.
