Tigers 2023 Spring Training Thread

Who is winning the job at 3B? Haven't really kept up..

I haven't really heard anything. FWIW, Kreidler has the most PA this spring of anybody that is supposed to be a 3B and he has 5 xbh and what our new front office loves...3 walks :clap:
 
Here's a random fun fact about LHP Chasen Shreve. 30.8% of his pitches thrown have been thrown for swinging strikes. Six of his seven strikeouts have come by swing and miss so far this spring.

from the article: "The Tigers have also told Venezuela that Miguel Cabrera?s participation must be limited to 1at-bat per game. In the last WBC, Miggy got hurt which impacted his entire season with the Tigers."

what is the point in even going if you are only going to allow him to have one AB per game? How is he even helping the team? How is he helping himself get ready for the season?

IMO, it's really stupid
 
With the Jackson Jobe news..somewhere Al Avila must be wondering as his next direct deposit hits..I may have been the greatest baseball liar in history..but damn I think I sucked as a GM..that Marc Gorosh guy was right..let me check my bank balance again..nice..

Fuck you again you stupid dumb fuck bumbling cocksucker Al Avila for drafting a high school pitcher with a top 5 pick in the draft when the consensus best hitter Marcello Mayer was there to be taken.
 
Final line for Tigers starter Matt Manning: 3.2 IP, 4 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 4 K. 59 pitches, 39 strikes.

He threw 42% fastballs and 24% sliders. Both pitches were working for him. Fastball averaged 93.2 mph.

Seven swings and misses: four fastballs, two sliders, one changeup.

Home runs from Riley Greene and Akil Baddoo in the third, and it is 5-0 Tigers.
Home run No. 3 on the spring for Riley Greene

Colt Keith follows his homer with a triple in the third and is clearly unstoppable. Andrew Knapp, pinch hitting for Jake Rogers who was HBP earlier, goes yard as well. 7-0 Tigers. Domingo German having no fun out there.

Colt Keith demolishes this ball for his 2nd home run of the spring. How about 111.4 MPH off the bat and 427 feet.
Colt Keith?s home run:
Distance: 427 feet.
Exit velocity: 111.4 mph.
