Detroit Tigers Minor League Notes

Bless You Boys Tigers Blog Podcast Episode 31: Emily Waldon talks Arizona Fall League. 94 minutes.
The work never ends on a dream.

This is kind of a combo episode, so be forewarned. We recorded an interview with Emily Waldon, prospect writer for The Athletic, on Thursday, November 10th. Issues prevented it coming out over the weekend, so we added a little news and commentary as an opening segnment. You can skip to our interview with Ms. Waldon at about 30:00 of the podcast. To lead off, co-host Brandon Day flies solo with a quick rundown of MLB awards season, and the Tigers posture toward free agency as the hot stove season gets underway.

Justin Verlander is defeated by Tampa for the third time in Cy Young Award voting.

Bob Melvin was a bit of a strange choice for Manager of the Year.

The Tigers? claim their payroll is weighing them down.

Guest: Emily Waldon of The Athletic.

TigsTown Bourbon and Baseball BS Podcast - Ep 7: Thanksgiving Edition. 64 minutes.

In the Thanksgiving edition of the podcast, Paul and Mark dive into wrapping up the AFL, why the Tigers only protected Franklin Perez, and which prospects might break out in 2019 rookie ball.

Topics covered;
Mark returns to civility with a normal beverage for the podcast.

Roger has a better Thanksgiving feast than you.

Franklin Perez was a no-brainer to be protected in the Rule 5, but why not Anthony Castro, Derek Hill or Grayson Long?

Wrapping the Arizona Fall League, with Daz Cameron shining, Jake Rogers struggling, and some interesting arm performances.

Looking to breakout players like Wenceel Perez in 2019, with Paul making an obvious pick and Mark going out on a limb.
