Game 95 Tigers vs. blue jays July 20, 2019

[turok]

Last call for the Kitties to avoid yet another series loss.

Dixon doubles.

Niko Ks.

Hicks Ks.

Up to PHer Stewie...Ks.

Ugh!!

 

[lonesometiger]

Now that there no pressure, bull pen pitches like Cy Youngs, funny hum.

 

[turok]

I actually thought that they were gonna win this game in spite of themselves earlier...my bad.

 

[tinselwolverine]

Boston crushing Baltimore in late innings...so for now the O’s half game lead appears to be safe for the next 24 hours.

Tiger have the first pick right now. Detroit has 29 wins Baltimore has 30 wins. Worst record Oreos can get 30-132. Detroit can lose out and end up 29-133.
The lose column is what you look at when your trying to avoid loses. Too lose you try to avoid wins. And the kittens are behind there which means they are 1st in the draft pick.

Blue Jays 7 - Tigers 5: Then, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. happened.
A rain delay, a bullpen collapse and a lost series. Yup, just another Tigers game.

That is pathetic. How can a team be so bad.

Terrible starting pitching
Terrible bull pen
shitty hitters
bad defense

I think that's it.

Does that even matter in MLB?

Peyton Manning and Magic Johnson had big impacts as first picks in their respective leagues, but who in baseball ever has?

Which of these guys is going to be the savior of the Tigers? franchise?

Huh? Do you mean right away or ever? Lots of great baseball players who changed franchises from the draft.

Who?

Has any first pick in baseball ever had the impact of Magic Johnson or Peyton Manning in their sports?

EDIT: Actually off the top of my I remember Derek Jeter was #1 pick. I guess he could be an example.

Who else?

One player in Baseball can't have an impact like a basketball player or a like a QB does for a football team.

Jeter wasn't a #1 overall pick.

Here is a list of #1 picks. There are some great HOF players and some huge busts.

Yeah I double checked and I see that he was #6 That year. Some reason I thought he had been drafted first.

That said, your opening sentence is my point.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Baseball is a different sports. No one the days starts day 1 on a ML roster. By the way Magic had Kareem a pretty stacked team who lucked out with the pick.

So which is it? Is it baseball is a different sport, or is that magic had Kareem a pretty stacked team who lucked out with the pick?

That the point you were trying to make has no merit :cheers:. I expect it's easy to get a top pick in the NFL (That succeeds right away) with only 7 rounds, or the NBA 2 rounds then say baseball who has 40 rounds.

 

[tinselwolverine]

You reiterated my point exactly:

Then you turned around and posted this:
