I keep finding examples of Avila/Chadd/Littlefield evaluation incompetence.
DET is LAST in SS defense.
and 27/30 with 0.2 SS WAR.

TEX Kiner-Falefa 1.9 WAR
MIA Rojas 1.8 WAR
BAL Galvis 1.5 WAR
ARI Rojas 1.5 WAR

all cheap all pretty bad teams..all evaluate better than DET...

33 Michigan-born players have HR'd as Tigers. Top 5: Freehan (200), Gibson (195), Gehringer (184), Northrup (145), Maxwell (133).
14 hit only one. Bill Roman hit his in his 1st MLB AB.
Prior to Eric Haase, Casper Wells was the last to do it. Emil Frisk, in 1901, was the first.

This is how committed the private sector covering Tigers minor league baseball is..especially @rogcastbaseball from MCBTB yet..the Detroit Tigers PR treats them like they don't exist..all part of the Chris Illitch fan experience..


I have taken up the Miguel Cabrera defense multiple times this year..I have written popular articles on MCB_Tigers
I have tweeted..I have cursed out the ignorant..I'll use some simple facts..which are never popular in 2020..
facts for baseball dummies attached below:
Miguel Cabrera last 99 AB
263/327/364
3 HR
17 RBI
STFU people..
Nobody ignores facts and has worse eyes than sports fans...

Your eyes are not deceiving you..Tigers SS/2B defense is just about the worst in MLB.
SS 30/30 -10 DRS -4.0 fDEF (last)
2B 27/30 -5 DRS -7.0 fDEF (27/30)
It's a trainwreck...

Hinch and Avila are gonna have an uncomfortable conversation...and when the answer is..I have Lange Buck Farmer and Ian Kroll...or basically picking over your own trash..Hinch has just got to think this is the most clown level FO he has ever seen...

this guy rips the SS position and sticks up for Miggy.

SS position for Det is -0.8 WAR which ranks 25th
1B position for Det is -1.2 WAR which ranks 26th
DH is dead last at -1.2 WAR

Miiggy's overall WAR is -1.1

Nomar Mazara is hitting .183 with .536 OPS. His glove is also problematic.

Daz Cameron is tearing it up in Toledo and hitting .329 with .943 OPS.

We forecast the call up of Derek Hill. Now we're predicting Daz Cameron will be in Detroit sooner rather than later to help solve the RF problem.

Totally Tigers

Looking forward to another start for Mize

And all you ever do is rip Miggy so what's your f'n point.
You are so predictable every single f'n day here.

Mize = Fire tonight. 5IP so far 1 hit. 1BB, 6K's.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Up 3-0, still B5.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Top 6 1st and 3rd no outs.

 

[kalinecountry]

Mize = Fire tonight. 5IP so far 1 hit. 1BB, 6K's.

Trouble in the 6th inning for Mize and I am wondering what the maximum number of innings is for Mize and Skubal with the short season of 2020.
He didn't pitch 30 innings last year and has about 125 IP for 2018 and 2019.
There is bound to be a cut off for them in IP without going to far over last year.

 

[Mitchrapp]

3 run bomb. Dang.

well, you always rip AL and CI...but I don't complain about that. It's your right...just like it's my right to rip on Cabrera

 

[gotime909]

You have every right to bash miggy.

The two of them are the reason the Tigers are in this mess.

Miggy is just a player who is at the end of the line playing with injuries.
Christ if you were around back in the day you would have ripped kaline for his last two years.

no, CI's dad is the reason they are in this mess. Hell, it's his dad's fault Miggy is still on the team. And he isn't at the end of the line...he still has 2.5 more years on the team. Kaline had an OPS of .713 and .726 for his final 2 years as a Tiger. Cabrera is sitting at .577 right now. We get 2.5 more years of that? That's not worth complaining about??

 

[tomdalton22]

I missed the beginning of the game. I just saw the catch that Hill made. I have been watching some of his highlight defensive plays on KC's minor league notes page. I love the way that guy plays defense. If he could only hit a little.

 

[biggunsbob]

Damn it all.

 

[Mitchrapp]

I thought that was gone, over the fence and we get doubled up. Extra's.
