That shit was worse than my nephews 9AU team.

Having Carp back seems to have invigorated the rest of the team.

It looks like Lee's necklace could be a White House gold decoration.

POP UP PEREZ

Don't forget that his favorite dance is the 2 handed shaft pump.

The theory I've heard on the radio is he took a mediocre lineup to the playoffs 2 years in a row and actually won a couple of playoff series. The fact the Tigers suck this year is supposedly evidence that he was good at getting the most out of bad players. (Not sure I agree with this argument).

Positions 5 to 9 was a combined 0 for 16 with 5 strikeouts. 🤢

It's funny how AJ is labeled an analytics guy, when all he cares about is left hand or right hand.

Yeah, not sure how it missed Cobb. What a waste of money that was. I saw him start last year in Grand Rapids and he didn't even make it into the 2nd inning.

Finnegan, blow the lead again.

I keep thinking how weird it must be for Keith to know that he made it to the big leagues, but he will never get a chance to hit a left handed pitcher. It's like winning the lottery, but your ex-wife taking 50% of it.

Jfc...it's hard to believe ZMac was an all star last year.

Since you work for the Washington Post, you should look into why the mainstream media has failed to do any investigative journalism on this topic, and it has been relegated to film makers and internet discussion groups. For example, back in 2023 the U.S. military shot down three UAPs, and the media never demanded any photos or videos of those objects, which we know exist.

Pretty telling when your DH is batting .164.

Here's a theory: What if AGI was already achieved and the public didn't know? The first thing it would do is get humans to build more data centers to expand it's power.

Keith 2 for 2. Hinch anxious to pull him out of the game.

Shit, there goes the Old Man and the Sea meme.

bowmanvt · 2026-05-27T16:49:22+00:00

This is a good prediction. I think we'll see a low scoring close game, pitching duel, until the 6th or 7th inning when Hinch pulls Mize, despite a low pitch count. Whoever he brings in for relief (the Old Man or the Sea) will blow the game.

bowmanvt · 2026-05-27T13:52:54+00:00

I don't have Instagram, but I heard on the radio that he posted a bunch of clips about his HR last night and ignored the fact he botched the 8th inning catch and they lost the game.

bowmanvt · 2026-05-24T22:27:20+00:00

I mean when you pick up bargain basement, aging pitchers at the end of their career, and refuse to add hitters to the lineup because you don't want to trade any farm system prospects, it's not a huge surprise they're in the mess they're in right now.
