And there should be. That is positive. Despite your claims, you are exhibiting hatred towards him.

so we can only post positive things? It seems like there are negative things about the Tigers posted every day. People bitch about the manager, pitchers, the owner, Avila, etc.
 
No one saying he hasn't been awesome for Detroit. But he's suppose to be our stud who makes a ton of money. Past injuries or not he needs to get going.

I am just pointing to your hypocrisy, not others.

He has a whole season to turn it around. There is not one metric that points to a regression, in fact, they point otherwise. So rather than bemoaning someone stating his climb on the doubles leaderboard, maybe one should laud that accomplishment.

Why? I see complaints on here all the time about players during and after games including yourself. Why is Miggy off limits?

First, show me one post about a given player this year during or after a game that I made that was negative.


Second, I didn't say he was off limits, did I? I am saying you shouldn't judge based on a small sample rate and that Tom was a hypocrite. He says he doesn't have anything against Miggy, but goes on to remark against his achievement. You want to ignore that, fine.



So, my question would be do we now think James McCann is better with CHW because he started the season hitting .316 and a .892 OPS?

Off season and throughout the season you certainly do. You stat out how crappy a player is or has been. I'm not ignoring his achievements, Miggy has been good for us. I don't see how we can bitch about Zimmerman or Harrison etc but no Miggy because he got a double. In his own thread I'll laud him all day but this is the game thread.

Struggling is one thing but he's not even getting too many good swings. He looks like he's 46 not 36. When can we get past "it's still early."
