Wow Tork hit a home run, start

Tork is the odd man out. He's not playing 1B after Keith moved. Carp. will probably be mostly at DH. The only decision they have is Tork on ML team where he plays once maybe twice a week or AAA.

With Vierling and Meadows being injured (Vierling already stated to be slated to miss the start of the season), I would think that Carp will be an every day outfielder to start the season.

they are in play for bench spots. I think that Carp is probably the best option due to his ability to hit.

Personal I wouldn't mind Carp at DH, less chance for an injury. I mean you need one anyway. Unless they decide Tork's 1 ST home run is worth playing. Ha.

I wouldn't worry about him getting injured.

Why is that?

Why is that?

If I can't play a 27 year old player in the outfield because I am afraid that he is going to get injured, I'm trading him.

I get that but someone has to a DH. Granted I don't know if another option is any better in the field plus Hinch doesn't seem to like him vs LH. Plus Carp is already injury prone. Every year.

At least Skubal pitched well.

By that dumb logic Riley Greene should DH. He's missed as much time as Carp

But he's better defensively. I thought my point was clear, oh well.

If fine, you mean he sucks like most of the others than you're on point.

If you think he sucks defensively you're clueless.

Kerry Carpenter’s defense could cover some of the Tigers injury issues

With several injuries to the outfield, playing the Tigers slugger as a full-time outfielder may be the answer.

I do remember that he was below average when he first came up, but has improved since then.

Does sub par work better for you?

Still below average. It's like lifting my economics grade from D to a D+.

he was even in terms of runs saved above average, so that is a C
