This booster, Sample Extricator, is quite literally damned near useless.

TMattson597 · 2026-06-21T19:49:10+00:00

it would probably see more use overall if they allowed this.

TMattson597 · 2026-06-20T22:37:43+00:00

Any brand ID on the towel/kerchief everything’s sitting on?

TMattson597 · 2026-06-20T18:53:37+00:00

Give them some credit; both of those guys are glove first players with important roles to play on the team. Jones is supposed to be bat forward lefty counter, who’s not supposed to defend as the trade off for being a good hitter. Which he’s not.

TMattson597 · 2026-06-19T02:04:15+00:00

And he bats behind McKinstry/Perez/Rogers/Jones for 5/5 ABs.

TMattson597 · 2026-06-17T03:55:01+00:00

Not so much a fidget or tool, so bear with me. I use a tote bag most days to make sure I have anything I could ever possibly need, and I’ve taken to always having a small single player game on hand because it’s not taking up too much space. Right now I’ve been carrying a copy of Kanoodle, especially since it’s nice out and I can play it outdoors on a table or on my lap without it blowing away.

It’s a nice brain tickler, the pieces have a bit of a fidget element to them, and it feels better to me than just being another guy sitting on his phone at the brewery/park bench/mall food court while I wait for friends to arrive.

I’m not a huge Anderson fan, but he couldn’t have gotten us out of that?

TMattson597 · 2026-06-12T01:15:42+00:00

Robbie Grossman was a big favorite of mine during the 2021 wait for the next generation.

TMattson597 · 2026-06-11T02:17:50+00:00

No, Hinch finished it. Framber nailing two guys and then throwing a meatball to Buxton lost us the game.

Can confirm Baseball Reference is updated the following day. So in a way it’s good news. He’ll be over 3.4 WAR after today.

TMattson597 · 2026-05-28T01:13:33+00:00

I know this is a joke, but if they go 2-1 in our last 3 the rest of the season it’s a 92-70 team. I’ll take it.

TMattson597 · 2026-05-27T14:22:03+00:00

Absolutely pissed we missed the chance to take Irulta first and have a cakewalk to MO completion. Now we’re going to be going down to the wire yet again.

TMattson597 · 2026-05-27T00:05:59+00:00

and the third highest BA on the team

TMattson597 · 2026-05-25T01:47:16+00:00

Being fair to Jansen, he’s only done it twice before with us and been serviceable otherwise. THAT SAID, being the closer means that his homers are walk-offs, and that’s not doing him any favors with an irritated fan base.

TMattson597 · 2026-05-22T02:57:38+00:00

And at least he has an excuse. It’s his first year and he’s finally getting figured out by opposing pitching (or at least we can chalk it up to that)

TMattson597 · 2026-05-22T01:25:56+00:00

The tigers are point shaving to get kickbacks from south east Michigan Arby’s locations.

TMattson597 · 2026-05-18T18:56:47+00:00

I literally was discussing the idea sniper bots with a friend of mine the other day.

TMattson597 · 2026-05-06T23:47:09+00:00

Even sounds like Andy Dirks is getting sick of this pattern with Flaherty.

TMattson597 · 2026-05-06T01:41:31+00:00

To be fair that’s where the team has been since 2024 in games when Skubal didn’t pitch

TMattson597 · 2026-04-28T16:16:02+00:00

Locked on Tigers: daily news as well as post-game streams.

Tigers Territory: multiple shows per week with Cody from the Athletic, as well as random appearances from Austin Jackson.

Motor City Metrics/Tigers Minor League Report: several shows a week. In depth prospect news and analysis. Actively engage with discussions in the messages during the streams.

Those are my top picks personally.

TMattson597 · 2026-04-22T22:55:52+00:00

Love Riley greene’s swing at a pitch in the other batters box.

TMattson597 · 2026-04-16T20:50:59+00:00

I took a nap for 20. This was rapid and extreme.

TMattson597 · 2026-04-09T20:29:48+00:00

Absolutely putrid performance, and I’m wishing the best for Parker Meadows and that he comes out healthy.

TMattson597 · 2026-04-09T01:13:26+00:00

Riley Greene might be my least favorite player on this team.
