Jake Rogers with his first HR of the year!

...........and as he was approaching home plate, he pointed to the heavens above, obviously paying homage to his number one fan.

Jake obviously appreciated the fatherly hopes and dreams that Ron invested in his surrogate son.

Maeda blows. Hopefully the Tigers won't blow a guaranteed $24,000,000 for two years. I know he's a control junk pitcher, but his fastball was essentially batting practice. Then there's Lange, who's starting to look like he's just lost it. A bad first appearance in 2024, after a bad second half in 2...

On a more positive note, Jason Benetti is absolutely phenomenal. Only two games in and I’d dare say he’s the best TV lead the Tigers have ever had. I agree. He's the real deal. It will be a real shock when Benetti has to do a national broadcast and is replaced by Dickerson. I heard a replay of Dick...

Listening to Dickerson as I type this. He keeps mentioning the "art of pitching". Bobby Scales does too. Will they get to the point of repeating each other and eating on the air? What a scary thought—It wasn't just Price, it's a scripted part of the broadcast, like the inane non-sports discussions ...

The Toledo Mud Hens opened with a win yesterday. The starting lineup: Wenceel Perez, RF Justyn-Henry Malloy, LF Jace Jung, 3B Keston Hiura, 1B Justice Bigbie, DH Akil Baddoo, CF Eddys Leonard, 2B Dillon Dingler, C Ryan Kreidler, SS Matt Manning started and got the win. Beau Brieske got the save. Sho...

If Ron ends up being cremated, I hope his ashes end up at the site of the old Olympia Stadium:

Can't get a much better start to the season! Pitching looked indomitable. Greene made a few great plays in left. 1-0 for 1-0. Nice baserunning by Baez to get the only run of the game. I guess it's Greene's instinct to leap for catchable balls, even though we're going to cringe every time he does it...

I wonder how his most famous speech would go over in today's ultra-sensitive world.

I hope Windsor Dave enjoyed the first Tigers game of the post-Combero era.

With the start of the Tigers season today, I wonder if radio broadcaster Dan Dickerson will pay his respects to the passing of one of his most attentive listeners—Ron Cameron. (Notice that I didn't say "one of his biggest fans") :) I see in April it’s a Dan Dickerson 25th anniversary bobble head ni...

A team struggling mid-season that then got hot, before overtaking Toronto’s daunting lead that last week. All culminating in that nail-biting shutout (1-0) by Frank Tanana the last game of the regular season to beat the Blue Jays & win the AL East. Yeah, not even the great letdown of losing to the ...

The Tigers have finalized their pitching staff for the start of the season, with Alex Faedo and Joey Wentz getting the last two bullpen spots over Bo Brieske and Miguel Diaz. Here's how Baseball Reference projects the Tigers pitching staff for 2024, which I'm guessing is based mostly on past perform...
