Like I've said its the 0 fence that's been the problem. But 7 today says the 5+ fence showed up.. Pitching hold them to 3 or less gives the run-fence a change to win games! Missed today's game, shopping. Just play them one at a time

DEEPER DISCUSSIONS.
Totally Tigers

The Detroit Tigers are expected to be sellers at this year’s trade deadline. Potentially, they could be trading away:
– a pitcher
– a reliever
– a catcher
– an infielder
If they lose a player to a trade, they will need to call up someone from the minors. If you could pick just one, who would you select?

Here are your choices:
Justice Bigbie (RF) – To replace Vierling who would move to 1B and Carpenter who is still on the IL.
Dillon Dingler (C) – To replace Carson Kelly who may be traded.
Jace Jung (3B) – To platoon with Gio Urshela who will also play 1B.
Keep in mind that more of these players will be called up later in the summer.
But who should be the first call-up?
Should the Tigers focus on putting someone in with the shortest learning curve so the team may finish the season on their strongest note?
Or should this be more of a tryout/dress rehearsal that may impact their win-loss record?
Finally, are these players ready to be tested at the MLB level? Would being called up too soon do damage to their development?

Today’s blog addresses this question and allows readers to share their thoughts in more detail. And hopefully, to actively engage with others by responding to their posts and creating back-and-forth discussion threads. The more the merrier!
For this one blog only, you’ve got 6 sentences max to share your thoughts. Of course, you can also respond to other readers.
TT will supply the ammunition. One thought-provoking question. Several options provided. One hard choice to be selected. One vote.
Ready?

Who should be the first prospect called up if the Tigers trade away a player at the deadline?

1. Justice Bigbie

2. Dillon Dingler

3. Jace Jung

If the Tigers deal Flaherty they are going to need someone back who can start in the majors.

As an aside the Mud Hens pitching coach has to be fired. What an absolute disaster of a season for their pitching staff.

 

[biggunsbob]

I’m so sick didn’t even notice Erie had a combined no hitter with Jobe pitching the first 6 innings.

I’d like to see Dingler get a shot soon. Maybe Jung and then Bigbie. My order

I agree the pitching has been a disaster in Toledo. I am super worried Spencer has not crushed triple a pitching. Very concerning . Imagine this offense with his second half homers from last season.

Damn it. Olson on the dl.
