Holy shit they won a game?!?!?

Kansas City will be the reason we don't break the record for losses.

Wish Boyd could have finished the 7th but overall it was a nice win.

 

[turok]

'19 Tigers might still be among the Top 5 in MLB history for losses in a season...nothing to be proud about, if so.

 

[turok]

Holy shit they won a game?!?!?

its just the shitty royals, who might lose 100+ games this season themselves, and the Tigers still lost the series as well.

 

[Mitchrapp]

But they won the season series. It's a mini win.

They and maybe the o's as well, IF the Tigers can at least split the upcoming 4 gamer @ CoPa.

Pleasantly surprised they won,

1, 2 or 3 more wins so they don't tie the mets or the 2003 tigs.

I'm not real crazy about getting the 1th round draft pick as there is a really too much money involved in it. the 2nd or 3rd pick is just as good for the money.
But at some point the kittens need to hit pitch field play for next season to build a team to build on.

Ie name six players you would have on the team?, as of right now. Boyd, Trunbull, Goodrum, Reyes?, and of course Cabrera and Zimmerman so there six but really, is that the six best?

It's unfortunately because Goodrum is not a good ball player. K's way too much. 25% k rate is considered poor, 27.5% is awful. You work out the numbers. Especially since he hits very few homers, even in a juiced baseball season. I don't care if he's 25 just cut him now.

Reyes, like many current Tigers, stinks at taking a walk.

I'd keep Demeritt and Rogers just because but a short leash on both. Like the end of April. But because this is the Tigers, we'll keep most of these guys.

Watched a bit of Toronto vs Tampa game and how does the Rays make any money? The stadium is just completely empty. Sections and sections just empty.
