    Wasn’t it a passed ball?

    Miggy was running, McCann dropped ball trying to jump up to throw him out

    I'd pull mize now. But we'll see if he can get out of this

    Got too close to the wild card. Our BP can only be good when we are awful

    If the season ends with teams anywhere close to where they are now, I think Manfred would just go by the normal rules just to avoid Detroit, Baltimore and Miami being in the top 5 again.

    I mean this really should have been announced prior to season. We'll end up with an NHL situation with a TBD team drafting #1

    Castro is not a good SS. End the experiment. Never has been, never will. Find a new position for him.

    .122 is a solid ops, right?

    I know it’s the Royals, but Skubal May have had one of top 5 pitching performances on the season for us.

    He had 17 swinging strikes. Seems like that may be best on season for us.

    10 more games, need 7-10 losses to slide into top 3

    We need to play that double header against cardinals on last day of season. If we have to play it, those are two guaranteed losses.

    So figure we play DH, that leaves us 12 games. 4-8 is probably best scenario. That should put us in top 5 for draft next year, assuming they go by worst record.

    Career .247 hitter in minors. Guess we shouldn’t be surprised.

    I've never been as high on him as a prospect as others. But I'm all for letting guys like him sink or swim at this point

    I'm not worried about Mize, but he seems to blow up when he gets into some trouble. Hopefully that is something he can work through. Really wish we'd get him a real pitching coach

    That’s the dilemma. Our pitching coach sucks. No way can the Tigers bring Gardy and this awful coaching staff back next year.

    He helps us lose games man. We gotta lose as many as we can to finish the season.

    Cabrera tied with Cameron for worst WAR on team. Guy should be batting 7th.

    Its too bad he is so close to 3000 hits and 500 HR that I doubt we could convince him to retire
