Max Clark has been on an absolute tear in the month of July: .333/.462/.587 8 XBH
(4 HRs) 179 wRC+

Javier Báez will be activated from the injured list today, per A.J. Hinch. So is it outman or jake going bye bye?

There are no perfect defensive stats, but applying a consistent methodology to everyone is a good start. Over the last 3 seasons, among qualified first basemen, Spencer Torkelson ranks: 15th out of 17 in DRS 12th out of 14 in UZR 17th out of 17 in OAA 3rd out of 17 in FP.
I don't care, I just want him to hit more homers and base hits.

From the latest episode of Sources Tell Jeff Passan: Where things stand with the Tigers and Tarik Skubal.


Blame Harris all you want, and he deserves it, but when Skubnal gets traded this week please remember:
fWAR 2025/26
Mckinstry: 3.4/0.1
Tork: 2.3/-0.1
Wenceel: 1.7/-0.4
Carp: 1.5/-0.6
Jahmai: 1.1/-0.6
Vierling 0.5/-0.5
Finnegan: 1.0/-0.4
Vest: 1.4/0.3
His own teammates have let him down.

Since the beginning of the 2025 season minimum 300 PA,
wRC+James Outman 43 wRC+ 373/373
Matt Vierling 52 wRC+ 360/373
We know Harris is slow to make moves but that's 2/3 of your OF a lot of nights.

Hot mic alert. Justin Verlander tells Alex Cora to F**K OFF.

Damn, we DFAd Jake the rake? I cant agree with that. But i guess it makes sense with Valencia's production.

 

[biggunsbob]

Im shocked they Dfa Rogers. Wasn’t carpenter put on the DL ?
What is infatuation with Outman ?

 

[biggunsbob]

I’d be really shocked if Anderson and Clark get called up.
I’d trade Torres and Skubal, and mize, and Jansen, and everything that isn’t bolted down. Call up the kids.

Only issues is the damn work stoppage in 2027. If the both stay in the minors they can play next year. If they get called up to Detroit have to get added to the 40 man roster. If there is a work stoppage in 2027 they cant play at Toledo .

I am 99% sure that Clark will not get called up...especially if they are going into trade mode. Not sure if they even need Anderson since he is an infielder.

Im sure they probably are trading Torres to if anyone will take him,
24 year old Max Anderson can play 3rd and 2nd like Lee.

COVID killed Torkelson’s development.. but like you said we do have have a lot of infielders.

Live look at Tigers' C Suite.

 

[biggunsbob]

What the heck is Torres swing at ?

 

[lonesometiger]

I'm going with EV better than fv !

 

[biggunsbob]

Bashing sticks out today.

 

[lonesometiger]

The two new guys in the line up so far are 5 for six.

 

[biggunsbob]

Hey Harris >. Maybe Valencia should have had Rogers at bats
months ago ?

 

[biggunsbob]

It’s been a long time since the bottom of the order hit this good.
I remember Outmans three run Homer that won the royals game but this is nice.

 

[lonesometiger]
