Game 78 Tigers vs. indians June 24, 2018

you are confusing a team that wins a few games with an actual good team. They were a bad team that played well and won a few games. They are still a bad team. There are good teams that have shitty weeks too.

They were good last week. I never said they were the Astros.

Again, I said they were good last week. Only. Nothing more. Are you saying Candy is not good for this team?

when I said there was nothing good about this team, I was talking about offense, defense, and pitching. I wasn't talking about individual players. There are a few players on this team that are good. Not many, just a few.

Just like I said they were a good team last year. I didn't say they were a good team in 2018. It's okay to say they played good for a few games, no one will think badly of you. Stay strong, Tom.

sure...you can say they played good for a few games...but you didn't say they played good...you said they were a good team during that stretch. I'm saying they weren't a good team...they were a bad team that played well and won a few games.
 
They are a bad team that plays well at Home and/or against Lefties. Otherwise this team is what it is. Without Miggy, only Candy draws walks greater than league average. The rest of this team can go to hell.



Additionally, the longer they stay mediocre, the longer they are mediocre. This is why every other team has learned to "tank". You cannot rebuild and be mediocre. Period. Any sense this team is able to compete soon is just crazy talk. But if that makes you feel good. Fine.

They were a good team last week.. And yes bad teams can be a good team for a week.

So Nick still isn?t good enough for your ?only walks matter? nonsense outlook?
 
All kidding aside...I'm not sure if Nick should be in the Tiger's long-term plans. His defense is poor no matter where he plays. He will be a free agent after the 2019 season. Do the Tigers really want to commit to him long-term when they most likely will be re-building until 2020-2021?

I?ve been as big a fan as any of his and I think moving him now is the way to go.
