20 JUNE THOUGHTS.
Totally Tigers

June was a tough month to watch when it comes to baseball. The Commish. The owners. The players. All take the blame in shedding a bad light on the game during the worst of times.

June?s 20 Thoughts will certainly touch on it, here and there.

Just like normal, topics will be random and all over the map, the way we like them. Holdovers remain important for thoughts that need more time to simmer, but they will be updated to include additional thoughts and current information.

So let?s get rolling! Please enjoy another monthly accumulation of 20 Thoughts.
