Detroit Tigers Thread: Cardiac Cats 2.0 (TTF)

FUCK. he was just on the radio Monday.

 

Has it even rained in last hour?

 

I'm looking at the radar and am confused as to what they're waiting for. Am I missing something?

 

FSD just showed Avila and a bunch of players walking the field. They seemed pissed that the game hasn’t started yet.

 

I live about 11 miles north of the stadium, and it hasn't rained here since before noon. Radar seems to show the same weather in Detroit

 

Weather.com did not show me this. Stupid app.

 

Garcia blows

 

Castellanos with all the HR now

 

Good thing we didn't bring up Mize to start

 

Garcia is hot trash nice pick Al

 

Tyler Alexander is legit Vinegar Strokes

 

Teams had three AB without runner on 3rd less than 2 outs and no runs

 

They are making this Reds pitcher look like Cy Young

 

At some point that .220 team BA and .290 team OBP were going to bite us in the ass.

 

how does a staff of professionals watch these two guys practice for weeks and decide that Garcia should be the starter

 

Why is Carson Fulmer pitching again in an important situation? My white Sox friend said he’s awful and don’t expect anything

 

holy shit. 10 k’s. He sucked ass at Toledo last year too

 

Lol Nick

 

Is Jimenez the next Todd Jones

 

Closers in non save situation always turn out bad it seems. Especially in a DH not quite sure why we put him in

 

So much for Mize making his debut this week

 

We've thrown some amazingly bad line-ups out there over the last 3 years, but this one has to be in the bottom 5.

 

This offense is so pathetic.

And we announce SP for the week, no Mize

 

Yeah I saw that. If we do play those games against STL, we technically would need another starter on Saturday.

 

This team would have been shut out in both games of a double header if not for a fielding mistake by Castellanos. Hell call up Tork too. This offense is painful to watch

 

I don't know, if the team is set on Garcia being a starter they have six guys they are using. Boyd, Nova, Turnbull, Fulmer, Norris and Garcia.

 

They start hot so I wouldn’t expect many more wins here on out

 

There is also a consideration that this season might not last 47 more days.

Im really not going to get upset with Mize not playing in a season like this

 

Upset, maybe not, but I think a season like this is the perfect time to give guys like Mize time. Otherwise you are basically wasting a year of their development with no minors. Makes no sense to waste a guy like that in minor camp when he has shown he is ready for a call up

 

And some people think football will happen. Nope.

 

MLB.com updated their top prospect list

#7 Tork
#8 Mize
#26 Manning
#33 Greene
#51 Skubal

Luis Robert and Jo Adell still both on list. Lux too. Assuming Lux gets a call up at some point, and these guys aren't going to move much because no minor league season, Tork will likely be a top 5 prospect going into next season. Mize too if we are stubborn and don't call him up

 

Their rankings of Tiger prospects

Tork
Mize
Manning
Greene
Skubal
Paredes
W Castro
Cameron
Dingler
Wentz

 

Idk how willi Castro is number 6 but I agree with the rest of the list

edit #7

 

After #6 there's about a 10+-way tie for #7 depending on what skills you like and who you choose to believe in for whatever reason.

 

11-25 btw they have
Faedo, Cabrera, Rogers, Meadows, F Perez, Burrows, W Perez, B Garcia, Castro, Packard, Clemens, Campos, Keith, Workman, Reyes

Quintana all the way down to 26. Trei Cruz at 28

 

BYB could come out with a better list imo

 

That list is trash

 

Fuck yeah Avila. Job security baby. The first four guys he got by sucking ass.

 

The top 5 are potential all stars, and then it goes to guys who won't start on contenders in a hurry. Note: I'm not high on Paredes, W. Castro and Cameron.
