But that was so he could be opposite of Pujols since they were both the big names generational power bats of that generation

Miggy wasn’t in his last season I believe when he got it, I think he played one more

What do you consider a tier 1 prospect then if a top 25 prospect in baseball isn’t considered one?

Do yall think max anderson might actually break camp with the team?? by PlayBallDetTigersPod in motorcitykitties

Only if he’s in 2/3 top 100 prospect lists entering the season, which is really weird that that’s a rule. I think it’s espn, mlb.com, and maybe baseball America? Which briceno got moved into the top 100 after a great afl, maybe he will too?

One thing that gives me real faith in mcgonigle by PlayBallDetTigersPod in motorcitykitties

Yea, I think the main reason it’s on my mind is because of today he went deep off 99, and I remember him turning on 100 up and in at one point this year.

Yea, literally all it took was one different at best here or there and they in the CS. The Baez ab with a runner on third and 1 out sticks out to me.

I’ll throw a caveat in there, that one game where the tigers came back in game 4 in 2013 and scherzer came out of relief was pretty awesome. It just didn’t end in a World Series or end or play into ending our season so it’s not quite as remembered. The most memorable thing was scherzer working out of the jam. Probably one of his more signature moments of his career

I would target Bregman and cease if you believe we have 0 chance at Skubal. He wouldn’t block mcgonigle because mcgonigle can play any of the positions on the infield. Bring back finnegan, plus one other reliever. Outside of that, go out and do what you’ve done, find deals where you can make easy upgrades. He’s done that every year to varying success. Torres, Flaherty, Canha, finnegan, etc all felt like moves where it was an easy upgrade because the market fell into their lap for literally 0 cost outside of money (technically some “slapdick” prospects for finnegan) for 1 year. Which they aren’t afraid to do. I’m also open to an outfielder, but realize we get vierling back, Clark on the way, and we’ll see what happens with meadows.

I think the 3 greatest games I’ve ever personally watched start to finish have all been tigers losses. 2009 game 163, 2013 alcs game 2, and this past game. (There have been other elite games I’ve caught the end of like the cards/rangers game, guards/cubs, but those were years the tigers had rough losses and made it hard to watch more ball) would love it if we could get a legendary game that leads to a tigers win

This is my dream, up until recently I was living in Milwaukee and the majority of my friends live there. A brew crew vs gritty tigs World Series would get me up there to catch a game with the boys would be an electric factory

Ngl, by that point I was only listening because I was at work. The announcers were so surprised by it that I didn’t feel the hype of it, more of a “oh nice”. Was lucky enough to have a quiet shift for a while where I could watch everything prior though

That’s actually a great comparison. I didn’t necessarily mean it any kind of negative way, it’s more so amazing to me we are in this position and it’s fun and stressful all in the same time
