Tigers vs. Twins July 11, 2021 Game 91

[tomdalton22]

meh...the BP is pretty taxed right now. The injuries to Boyd and Turnbull is the main reason for this.

We are Doomed as Tigers fans with the group that runs this franchise.
There isn't a Shortstop that is Major League ready On The Tigers Team or in the Minors and they had a chance to Draft a Shortstop for the Future to Put in the middle of the future Lineup with Greene and Torkelson and they draft a pitcher a high school pitcher who are notorious for not amounting to much of anything.
Meantime the red sox draft Marcelo Mayer.
F'n rats Ilitch and Avila Leyland Littlefield Chadd and Bream Fuck them all.

The team is boring to watch. Exciting Brand if baseball my ass like they try and sell on Bally?s sports. I can?t stand to watch more then 2 or 3 innings of this baseball team. Not sure what the plan is from AA. Maybe if they could win more and get into the playoff hunt more posters will come back.
Idk I guess.

I actually have enjoyed watching this team. I finally see some pieces that are actually talented.

Boyd, Turnbull, Mize, Skubal all look like legit mlb starters that flash all star at times. Manning hopefully takes a step next year. If that's our starting 5 next year thats exciting.

Another year of Rogers/Haase is fine by me next year. They've been a strength for us this year.

Soto, Cisneros, Funk and Fulmer are the only pieces of the BP that deserve to be back, the rest aren't even good enough to send back down and keep in the system.

Badoo, Grossman and Short have been pleasant surprises. Candy has been solid once again.

Honestly a 50mil payroll bump would put this team in contention next year imo. Spend big(25 mil per year) for one of the stud ss free agents this year. 10 on another bat and the rest filling out the BP.

Id personally try to trade Schoop asap. Maybe try to bring a BP piece back for him. I'd replace the Castros with Paredes, Hill and Cameron when he's ready. Give those guys as many at bats as possible.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Baddoo is the biggest shocker for me. Started fast, went into the dumb and been balling ever since and improved on his walk rate bug time.

 

[lonesometiger]

The pitching went to blazes in this series. Fail pen game was awful! Couple of the BP;s should be sent any where ; bat boy should be given a chance if that's all they got heck fail pen not getting it done.

McCann/Haase combo?

I do agree with much of what you are saying.

The starting pitching has a nice core there.
Catching is good too. Haase is a great guy to have on the team given his versatility.
I would try to extend Schoop vs. trade him. He did hire Boras, so that is probably going to be difficult.
I'm probably in the minority, but I think they should go with Short at SS.

The bull pen is a mess. I like Cisnero, Soto, Funk, peralta, & Fulmer but that's it. They need some more depth.

2022
Starters: Mize, Skubal, Turnbull, Boyd, ??
Pen: Soto, Cisnero, Funk, Peralta, Fulmer, (need 4)
1B Miggy (terrible) Until Tork gets to town
2B Schoop or replacement
SS Short
3B Candy
RF Daz or replacement
CF Baddoo / Green coming
LF Grossman
C Rogers/Haase

This is probably not what most fans would want to do, but this is what I would do.

Sign a starting pitcher. A good #3 type that has had a history of an innings eater.
Really address the BP. Good quality guys...not 38 year old has beens.
Sign a corner outfielder. Not a star...a Grossman type player.
Maybe have to sign a second baseman.

Still around and peak in from time to time, the team just doesn't excite me much and still can't watch em on TV with Dish, the free mlb66 site likes to keep refreshing on me and making me start it up again it's annoying and keeps me from tuning in much, maybe next year i'll stop being so stubborn and cheap and find a better solution.

Funny I can't believe I wrote McCann lol

Id still be ok with resigning Schoop for the right price, but you could still do that in the off season after trading him to a contender. Might even help your chances since you'd be doing him a solid letting him finish the year with a contender. Getting somethimg for him and letting Paredes get every day at bats at 2b is win/win imo

If I put myself in the player's shoes.

1) A GM tells me they really want me but I won't commit, then he trades me.
2) A GM tells me they really want me but I won't commit, then he says, "we like you so much that we want you to stay and we will do everything we can to keep you in the off season"

I would prefer #2. Tell me and show me. Plus, there is a good chance if you trade him that he will like the new place more anyway.

It's not like he's all world and will demand a fantastic return. If the Tigers really want him back next year, don't let him leave.
