Bless You Boys Tigers Blog Podcast Episode 39: Michael Fulmer is hurt and its awful. 96 minutes.
The editorial staff discusses the week?s news from the Detroit Tigers and the baseball world at large.

It?s a grim day in Tigertown as Michael Fulmer is out for the year with a blown elbow. We discuss some of the fallout from this most awful news, and whether the Tigers should take the opportunity to get a little more radical in deploying their pitching staff.
Baseball appears ready to confront its labor issues before things get worse, and our old colleague, Emily Waldon, is leading the charge. Plus, Mike Trout gets paid in full, our season preview series continues, and we answer your listener questions.

Michael Fulmer is headed toward UCL reconstruction surgery and we?re a bit gutted.

Who takes Fulmer?s spot in the rotation, amid other fallout from the news?

MLB seems to be taking the ongoing labor strife seriously.

Emily Waldon pushed the minor leaguers pay to the forefront with a great piece for the Athletic.

Mike Trout signs an extension that is easily the biggest contract ever, and still not big enough.

Quick previews of the AL/NL East.

Listener questions.

Bourbon and Baseball BS Podcast: Live from Lakeland. 70 minutes.

In the latest podcast, Mark gloats about the third straight MSU win over U-M in basketball, before they eventually get to talking about baseball. They talk about their surprises and disappointments among those in big league spring training before pivoting to the minors where Paul has been on location the past several days and shares his thoughts. They wrap it up with a pair of listener questions around playing time at shortstop and notable player development gains.

And remember to visit Swan Brewing, sponsor of the Bourbon and Baseball BS Podcast, in downtown Lakeland! Swan Brewing is Lakeland's premier craft brewery and taproom. Check out their site at SwanBrewing.com, follow them on Twitter @Swanbrewing, and make sure to mention TigsTown when you visit to get 20% off your bill!


Producer note: The podcast was recorded on Monday night, prior to the announcement of Michael Fulmer being recommended for Tommy John surgery, so all commentary around Fulmer was made without that knowledge.
