Detroit Tigers 2024

[Realist]

Maeda won’t be cut due to contract, but he has to at least be sent to the bullpen immediately.

Wentz is probably more stretched out, but he was awful as a starter last year. If Faedo or Brieske aren’t going to get a shot, it’s probably Manning again. Madden isn’t ready, neither is Jobe, and Sammons is a career minor leaguer. Short of signing someone, those are your options.

I agree on Manning. He should have been given the long leash that a lot of the young hitters were given this year. Pat Caputo last night made a reasonable case against Manning, but whatever his faults, he's got to be better than Maeda.

You lost me at Pat Caputo. His opinions mean nothing to me as some of the he says come across as an uneducated dimwit with a mega phone

I think you meant all instead of some.

Certainly not going to argue with that opinion. I can’t believe he held a media position with the Oakland Press for as long as he did

It was announced today. Maeda is going to the bullpen for the foreseeable future.

Good. The Tigers are always slow with the obvious decisions (sending down Torkelson and Meadows, etc.), but they do eventually make them. This should boost clubhouse morale and maybe help them continue this hot streak.

Baddoo down, Vilade up. The latter celebrated with two hits.

[MWmetalhead]

Their comeback win today was cute.

Too bad this team remains irrelevant.

It’s too bad that Baddoo couldn’t bounce back to how he was in 2022.

As per usual, the power bats are warming up in July, something in the atmosphere, especially at Comerica.

[SD45]

Tigers walk off win again today, 4-3.

Maeda pitched 3 innings. 1 hit and 5 strikeouts.

47-50 at the All Star break.

[SD45]

Skubal pitched the second inning in the ASG.

He retired all three hitters.

Ohtani just hit a three run homer off Tanner Houck.

[moldyoldie]

(A rhetorical question) When did the Tigers offense get the message, and what was the message? It's like they've taken a magic hitting potion!

All of a sudden I'm NOT thankful to Comcast for taking away Bally Sports.

Cut Kenta NOW!

Cut Kenta NOW!

Ain't gonna happen with Olsen now on the IL and Flaherty possibly headed out at the trade deadline. Manning and Mize are also battling injuries. It's gonna be "all hands on deck" as far as the rotation is concerned.

Right now, I'd guess Flaherty and Kelly might be traded together for a minor league prospect and a young number 4-5 major league starting pitcher.
