    Tork has been pretty good since coming back from AAA though. 125 wRC+ over 38 games. Im very interested to see what he does in 2025. He's either "fixed" or he struggles and likely gets moved.

    This series has been all about the small ball lol.

    But then wouldn't a homerun be more valuable?? It takes 3 singles to score a run. Potentially 2 if the runner can steal 2nd of gets moved over. Or a combo of singles + walks. A homerun is an automatic 1 run, and more if there's a runner on base with a walk for example. Obviously you'd take a lineup with less k% if you could. But if its a choice between lower K% or higher HR% i'd pick the higher HR% every time.

    Hinch bouncing his former team with a box of scraps in their home park is kinda funny

    I could realistically see something like Santander + Bregman. Would leave a lot of room for pitching but it would be doable. However based on recent comments and overall direction, I think a more likely scenario would be something like a Kepler/Oneill signing + Ha Seong Kim , or a trade for Arenado.

    Yeah thats what i was thinking too. I guess it just SEEMS to me, anecdotally, that the last several years of playoffs have been decided by big homeruns and not stringing 2-3 hits together multiple times a game. To me personally it just seems the front office has been behind on things. Especially hearing that comment about "low-hanging fruit" when speaking about adding a power bat.... its like there's a group of nerds that want to prove how smart they are and purposely go against the grain. Which in turn means they end up using outdated thinking/methods to be different. Basically what im saying is they are TRYING to be the Rays, but failing and they've actually more closely resembled organizations like the Whitesox/Twins/Mets

    That is fairly interesting, I guess it makes sense. But also, if you do the same thing and look at the top HR-hitting teams, all of the WS winners from the past 4 years are top 5.

    Not starting Kikuchi game 2 is… a choice
  9. Stangstag
    And this is pretty concrete proof that our front office is behind the times

    I feel like I disagree with that statement wholeheartedly. Like sure, sometimes you have teams like the 2015 Royals that BABIP their way to a championship. But more often than not, the homerun is king in the playoffs. That mentality of “contact being more important” in the playoffs is BS

    Hard pass
  12. Stangstag
    That’s always been the case though, even with the Jays
  13. Stangstag
    That sounds fun
  14. Stangstag
    Only if you buy the dugout deal beers
  15. Stangstag
    Pretty good outcomes today, lets see which teams can take it to a game 3. Would like to see the Brewers advance
  16. Stangstag
    Very bad luck! Who could expect notorious workhorse Christopher Sale getting injured unexpectedly
  17. Stangstag
    Wow what a genius move by AA to start Smith-Shawver in game 1
  18. Stangstag
    Agreed. 0 excuses for them not to make a splash in free agency this offseason. A BIG splash. Especially with this new owner now too.
  19. Stangstag
    Have you heard about the Braves starter
  20. Stangstag
    I was fully onboard with firing ALL coaches a year ago. I like what im seeing so far. Blame has to be placed somewhere, and its felt like everyone has been given too much rope the past couple years. Schneider should’ve been booted after the 2022 playoff fiasco IMO.
  21. Stangstag
    Jesus christ that was almost a game-winning double from Heyward lol
  22. Stangstag
    Oh my god if I was a Tigers fan right now i'd be losing several years of my life due to stress
  23. Stangstag
    yeah the numbers are almost identical for 2023/24, 100ish games at C and 45ish games at DH
  24. Stangstag
    Giving a free out with a bunt.... now a single ties it. Lets see if it pays off
  25. Stangstag
    this 9th is not going well for the Tigers so far...
