Tigers 2019 Spring Training Thread

Does anyone think Miggy can hit 20 home runs any more? Not sure I do.

I want to change my opinion. Can he hit 10 home runs anymore.. 1 extra base hit in 15 games.. Sad.

This is not the first time in his career of such a drought. He has such a drought at least once a year.

True but coming off an injury and now 36 more of a concern.

he'll hit his share of HRs as the weather heats up. I still say he gets to 20 (barring significant injury)

He doesn't even drive the ball anymore.

He doesn't even drive the ball anymore.

I agree that he appears to be a shell of what he once was, but it's early. Didn't he have 3 HRs in spring training?

the HRs will come this summer...when it's hot and the ball is flying out of the park.

Of course, he has played in about 10% of his games (I expect him to play in about 150 this year)

If he keeps this pace...

140 hits, 80 BB, 30 RBI, 30 runs, 10 doubles, 0 HR, 170K :cheers:

He?s not very aggressive at the plate right now. I?m not sure why

He is not hitting against spring training pitching now. In fact none of them are.

Maybe he’s tentative about any re-injuries or tweaks in this cold idk..it’s very unlike him to not be attacking first pitches a lot, right now he’s taking a lot of pitches then missing fastballs
