    National League Championship Series

    Speaking of the Arizona team, now in the ALCS after only winning 84 games all season. What does the numbers look like, should the Diamonbacks beat the Phillies?....... .....The 2006 Cardinals finished the regular season 83?78. This is the second-worst record ever for a league champion the...

    Draft Thread 2020

    DL Larrell Murchison DE Bradlee Anae DT Robert Windsor DL Khalil Davis S/LB Jordan Glasgow Instead of Stenberg and Huntley, the Lions could have picked from this list of names above. That would have eliminated picking two D-liners that aren't worth a-darn, late in the 7th Round. Cephus was...

    Draft Thread 2020

    B+ for Day-1 A- for Day-2 D for Day-3 Saturday's Day-3 Lions Draft Selections were disappointing. Ventured too heavy on Offense - that for the most part, won't pan-out. Trading-down was an abysmal Quinn decision.

    Draft Thread 2020

    The joke are fans who think Kerryon will make it beyond mid-season without significant injury. If there's anything that upsets me, it's the thought that Draft 2020 will go down as Quintricia's Jobs Saving Draft. I absolutely love the Swift Pick. He could be the primary ball-handler in the 2nd...

    Mike Ilitch gone now Chris Ilitch possibly selling the Tigers?

    Chris wants a crack at building a Stanley Cup team and World Series team. But will the rest of the Ilitch clan talk him out of pursuing his own dreams? ..... and will Dan Gilbert eventually get the Tigers and Tom Gores become sole owner of Little Caesars Arena, by purchasing the Red Wings?

    Tigers on track to lose 108 games in 2019

    Since I wrote this quote above, Tigers have a 2-11 record. (Guess) This 2019 squad surely surpasses 2003 season's 119 losses campaign, should they move Castellanos, Greene and Boyd. If that occurs, advanced season ticket sales heading into 2020 may not reach five digits, based on projected trend...

    Game 91 Tigers vs. indians July 16, 2019

    The way Cabrera's tracking lately, he's driving towards the 680's OPS-range by the end of September. Both his SLG and OPS could end-up 140-150 pts below his lifetime averages His attitude and body language says he wants out of Detroit and his Big-Baby / 12 year-old mental behavior has fans...

    Trade Rumors Castellanos to Cubs, Greene to Braves - signs with the Reds now Phillies

    Fans were angry with the Avila Extension. Fan may approach going into a tirade, after Avila gets done trading the likes of Jimenez, Castellanos, Greene and Boyd for little in-return. Little Al's greatest weakness is return value in major league trades. He really needed to add a long-time...

    Game 84 Tigers vs. red sox July 5, 2019

    A few observations from my 2nd Row Upper Level 1st Base seat at Comerica Park Friday night. 1) This new Public Address Announcer is just plain awful. 2) I heard seven clappers when the Tigers players were announced pregame. 3) 27K Attendance announcement was more like 23K there live. 4) No...

    Tigers extend Avila's contract

    Phase 2 of shortening the outfield dimensions needs implementation this off-season. Reduce CF from 420ft to 400ft. So the Moore, Ross, Mercer and Harrison acquisitions this past off-season, must have convinced Chris that Al Avila should be extended another three years. OMG!

    Tigers on track to lose 108 games in 2019

    Current record sits at 27-54 Projected to finish at 54-108 What's mind-boggling is we may only pick 3rd in the 2020 MLB Amateur Draft. Both Kansas City and Baltimore have worse W-L records currently.

    Bill Freehan Not Doin? So Hot

    Freehan's sad news began almost 15 years ago. He's been battling it for a long-long time. If I recall correctly, the initial, original diagnosis was back in 2005. I remember the boys at MotownTigers discussing it back then. Mt sister has related degenerative Dementia and it's been several years...

    Pujols Jumps Ruth in RBI's and Mays in Home Runs

    Had Ruth played in these bandboxes of today and was awarded with all the home runs that were either disallowed or called foul in those years, already the greatest player that ever lived, would be held today on an ever bigger pedestal. Example: Today, Ruth would have hit 900+ homers and probably...

    Ex-Tiger/Twin Joel Zumaya retiring

    One of the most electrifying players I ever watched for two consecutive seasons. Mark The Bird Fidrych was another. Both were Tigers. Pedro, Ryan and Roger were three more that glued me to their live games. There were a few more. But not at the level of those-5. Many had one season of...

    Bingo Yahtzee Kismet Harper brings fans thru the turnstiles. Harper (spelled-out) sells a ton of merchandise with his name on it Harper is great for advertising endorsement deals Harper followers are #1 on the internet (versus the other 24 on the roster) and all those clicks to follow him bring...
