Love sports, Baseball and Hockey in particular, Huge Detroit and Wolverines fan. Greyson and CJ’s Papa.
Good Afternoon! Haven’t been here in awhile, just too much politics and not enough baseball but there are people I miss talking Tigers with. Looking to see who is here and if it is worth posting in both spots and taking the time to block and mute the politics like I have on X to make it tolerable. 😂

Thinking out loud, and yes position players and pitcher markets are not direct comparisons, but it’s hard to imagine the price of a longshot Skubal extension now and what he would get on the open market in 2 years have risen a bit further than anticipated. What would you offer him now?

Good Morning! The MLB Winter Meetings are underway! With a couple of Big Boys off the table, including the Biggest with Juan Soto’s historic Mets signing, there could be a higher level of activity than usual. Beam us up Scotty, it’s time to show you are up for the task.

Good Morning! Couple of tough games on tap with the injury riddled Lions looking to officially clinch a playoff spot and keep a grip on the 1 seed in the NFC vs Green Bay and the Red Wings heading to Ottawa to face the Senators who have basically owned them the past 3 seasons.

Hate how I just can’t get up to watch the Red Wings. Maybe the most uninspired I’ve been to watch in my life. I watch out of habit, but with a Boston loss likely, then Ottawa up Thursday who basically own them, it feels like another 4 game losing streak minimum. Hope I’m wrong.

Reposting here from X:

Tigers talk heating up a bit so let’s have some fun. Just some surface stats but:
Player A:
.272/.325/.394 16HR 2.5 bWAR
Player B:
.257/.312/.423 16 HR 3. bWAR

Player A costs you prospects, money, and hoping for improvement at age 34

Player B…you already have and he’s 28.

Good Morning! A loaded sports weekend with a little something for everyone is on deck! Today we have the Red Wings at 3 PM, Pistons at 8, a bunch of college football games, and a midday NFL game between the Raiders and the Referees. Get your shopping done early and enjoy the day!
November 29, 2024 at 2:51 PM
Happy Thanksgiving Everyone! Enjoy your day and hopefully it kickoffs with the Lions taking care of business again!

Good Morning Everyone! So the night I fall asleep early Blake Snell signs with the Dodgers 5/182. If he is getting that at age 31 then you know Skubal is likely getting a little more in 2 years at 30 assuming performance. So the parameters on a Tarik deal are now set, what’s your next move?

Yusei Kikuchi to the Angels. Being reported as 3 years/$63 million. Figured him for a 3 year deal but the dollars are a bit more than I thought. Good move for him as the Angels try to improve to ultimately watch Mike Trout get hurt again and then team flounders in no man’s land, but they do try. 😂

Good Morning Everyone! Should be Red Wings win day as they face the Islanders again who they have beaten 1-0 & 2-1 this season. The lackluster home effort Saturday should embarrass them, but how many times will we say that? Sad Jim Montgomery went to St Louis, missed opportunity!

Good Morning Everybody! Happy MLB Non Tender day! Teams have until 8PM to offer contracts for the arbitration and pre arbitration eligible players. This usually spurs some action across the league. Keep an eye peeled, we know Harris loves to play on the margins looking for help…

Holy Cow the Red Wings have won a hockey game, coming back and snatching victory from the jaws of defeat, 2-1! Maybe this will get them going. #LGRW
November 22, 2024 at 2:34 AM
Well here is something different. The Red Wings lead in shots on goals 12-9. That’s 1 more than they had all game vs the Islanders the first time they met this season. They still are losing 1-0 but….

Gotta say I like what we are seeing from Kane/Kasper/DeBrincat line so far
November 22, 2024 at 12:32 AM
1-0 Islanders less than 6 minutes into the game. Red Wings can’t cash in a Power Play, Islanders get a tip out front that Lyon had no chance at…

The McRib is back December 3rd. The most important news you will hear all day.

A goal against with under a minute to go in the period. These are my favorites. Tie game 3-3. Do the Red Wings rise to the occasion or collapse again in the 3rd?

"One shift can turn the whole ship around," forward Andrew Copp said. "I think we're going to put some pressure on ourselves Monday night. Treat it as a very, very big game for us just in terms of mentality.

Andrew Copp quote from CBS game preview. Let’s see how this translates.

Good Morning Everyone! If the Red Wing lose tonight to the San Jose Sharks, Lalonde should be picked up in an uber from the arena and listings for places to stay in California and not be allowed on the flight back home. That is all. Have a great day!

Ok Lions just do what needs to be done today. Don’t mess around and just paste Jacksonville early and often.
November 17, 2024 at 6:02 PM
Tip my cap to Mike Tyson for giving what he had left, Father Time is an unbeatable opponent, he gave us a couple flashes and some nostalgia.

Middle Finger to the Red Wings. Up 3-1 to the Ducks you just can’t lose that game. I love hockey but I’ve lost interest in watching them

Love Matt Sheppard calling Piston’s games. He really is good at everything but baseball….

Would love to get Mookie Betts' reaction to the Red Sox suddenly having Juan Soto money
NEWS: Juan Soto and the Boston Red Sox reportedly had a "productive" meeting.

As part of their presentation, the Red Sox highlighted their plans for the future, their young core and their history of Dominican stars.

Line for the Tigers garage sale when I left at noon. I’d say save your time now it was pretty picked through when I was inside, after all these people can’t imagine there will be much left unless you are a less popular size.
