Detroit Tigers Thread: Cardiac Cats 2.0 (TTF)

Yo smeegsgreen . Two questions

• when does torkelson hit his first homer?
• And when will his average be over the Mendoza line?

 

Anything good in this article? It was by mccosky and Lynn Henning, so probably pro Avila

 

Heading to the park tomorrow to catch a white caps game, first HR tomorrow, calling it

 

July 28
August 30

 

The rebuild is over baby. The tigers are back.

 

Go Crazy

 

Torkelson third game in a row at 1st. Is the experiment finally over?

 

Avila smartest man in the room failed after 2 weeks?

 

Also 0-2 2 k so far...doesn't look like I'm going to see his 1st HR

 

Manning also got destroyed today and was pulled in 2nd inning.

Torkelson has got to be biggest disappointment so far though. He is showing no signs of power, looks lost at plate. He was supposed to only be in Grand Rapids for like 2 months.

 

Bust

 

Horrible prospects lol

 

since Skubal and Manning suck, Avila will have no choice but to draft a hard throwing righty from the SEC.

 

How many errors does he have in the field today?

 

Daniel Cabrera has a .190 ops

 

There was a weird play at first that I was half paying attention to that I'm not sure if it was a bad throw or he dropped it. So maybe one

 

they scored it an error on Torkelson

 

Then he just dropped a throw to him then.

 

Lol

 

Garrett Crochet White sox first round pick 2020 draft is dominating majors at 21 Y/O while Matt Manning can’t keep the ball in the park in AAA at 23 Y/O

 

Our player development sucks dude.

 

I’m ready for another 15 years on this rebuild

 

Bases loaded one out, weak pop out. He also swung 3-0 pitch before

 

He’s trash man.

 

Can you imagine signing for over 8M and sucking ass from day one and never being relevant?

 

It's like watching a tigers game. No hit after 5 and losing 5-0

 

Eric Haase is the best catcher on this team lol Vinegar Strokes
Edit he’s playing LF lmao

 

Mize looking solid again.

 

Seattle can't hit, but I'm up for any positive vibes I can get. That's four straight good starts.

 

Avila to sign Eric haase to 6 year deal after tonight?

 

Between AAA and MLB this season in 33 ab Haase has 6 extra base hits and 13 k. Taking the Baddoo approach to hitting

 

Now we just need Torkelson, Skubal, and Manning to stop sucking ass.

 

Is Fulmer officially the closer yet?

 

until July 31st, when he’s traded for some minor league bum

 

Can we trade for Dawel Lugo again?

 

Chris Illitch burner account?

 

Just missed his first one...also walked twice tonight and no strikeouts.

 

Jesus he crushed that. What was the exit velo on that?

 

Turnbull sucks ass

 

Something actually fun happened!

 

Was going to give Avila credit for drafting him, but he was actually a. 2nd rounder under Dombrowski

 

Awesome for Turnbull. Shame it happened in a West Coast night game so nobody in Detroit was watching it, but pretty sweet nonetheless.

Great play by our best non-pitcher to keep it going.

 

Only shitty thing is Matt Shepard got to call it.

 

Henning is a fucking idiot. Avila will not be able to pull this off.

 

Any club asking about Turnbull at this year's deadline is going to laugh their asses off, hang up, and immediately leak to the national guys that our asking price is insane. Just like 2 years ago with Boyd and 4 years ago with Fulmer.

 

This is when Al trades for a AAAA shortstop that can't field or hit, but has "upside"

 

Looking at the returns they've gotten when they actually do trade good players, I'd rather have Avila ask for the moon.

 

Torkelson back playing 3b and 2-2 tonight with a SB and run scored
