I think his idea was "you can't score for me, fk it then."

Turning The Corner Tigers Podcast Episode 160: How Does Scott Harris View The 2024 Detroit Tigers? 74 minutes.
2024 Detroit Tigers are an interesting watch. Fans want to see more after such a long playoff drought. But how does or how should President of Baseball Operations Scott Harris view the team? The Atheltic's Cody Stavenhagen and co-host Kieran Steckley discuss. Also, we hear from Spencer Torkelson in Toledo. Other topics include Riley Greene, Javier Baez, Kerry Carpenter, Jack Flaherty, Tarik Skubal.

Akil Baddo in chance #71..is hitting .138..I think we've seen enough..try something else.

Kenta Maeda has a 6.41 ERA..seems like poor calculated risk.
How long will Scott Harris tolerate the dumpster every 5 days that is Kenta Maeda
Maeda signed a 2-yr. contract for $24 mill - $14 mill this year and $10 mill in 2025. If he continues to pitch poorly, potentially the Tigers will unload/DFA him for 2025. But they need to have an influx of young pitchers ready for next year - and depth, too, for that to happen.

Detroit Tigers Newsletter: The shortstop problem is even worse than you think

Javier Báez has been abysmal for the Detroit Tigers, but he's not the only one to blame for their historically bad performance at shortstop in 2024.

We get the bases loaded after Malloy works a walk after I think being down 0-2 in the count and they visit the mound and the net batter swings Colt Keith I think swings at the first pitch and grounds out. Wish he had saw a few pitches. Idk.

Yesterday in Houston the tigers only real threat they loaded the bases with walks in the top of the 5th, and McKinstry swings early at the 2nd pitch and flys out. I think we need to be more patient when we load the bases. Heck idk.

Yet Harris is loading the team with hitters that "control the strike zone"

 

[biggunsbob]

Greene single breaks the tie ! 1-0.

Lol

 

[biggunsbob]

Come on Gio. Put the ball in play darn it Unproductive at bat with no outs.
Pitching change.

 

[biggunsbob]

Sigh Malloy K’s on a 3-2 pitch


Come on AJ. You need to get kicked out out of the game .

That’s was 6 inches inside to Colt on that called 3 strike.

 

[biggunsbob]

We need robot Umps. That pitch wasn’t even close. Very frustrating.

 

[Mitchrapp]

We need robot Umps. That pitch wasn’t even close.

Somehow I feel even with robot umps we'd be complaining about the strike zone.

 

[Mitchrapp]

100 pitches I suspect that's it for Olsen. Though I'm partially surprised AJ left him out for that long.

maybe. But Colt should have walked.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Jeez, I thought that was gone.

 

[biggunsbob]

Vest is sure trying to give this game away.

 

[biggunsbob]

Jeez, I thought that was gone.

Me too.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Shakes head in discust, lol.

 

[biggunsbob]

1 freaking 2 count. Why is it catching that much of the damn plate !
