@JonKarcich @nextlevelbb Roch patiently signed a ton of autographs and took pictures w/ kids after a comeback win in East Lansing in early May. His mom was there and I told her how cool it was that he did that. Her reply, “he loves it as much as they do. He did the same thing at their age.” I’m a fan.

[Kevin Wilson @KWBaseball]

We have traded fundamentals for measurables.

And it shows up in today's version of the game.

Too many players are lacking:

⚾️ Baseball IQ
⚾️ Awareness
⚾️ Ability to play catch
⚾️ Baserunning
⚾️ Ability to throw strikes
⚾️ Bat-to-ball skills
⚾️ Feel
⚾️ Adjustability
⚾️ Perseverance
⚾️ Grit

Just to name a few...

Players today spend more time in cages looking at screens and less time in the sandlot competing, having to learn how to play the game without coaches.

The players, coaches and organizations who still value fundamentals, stick out more today than ever before!

[Tim Goergen @Tim_Goergen]

Bad baseball teams lack good fundamentals. The Tigers severely lack good fundamentals.

[Tigers Data @TigersData]

The Detroit Tigers have 42 plate appearances with the bases loaded this season.

They scored 0 runs in 66.7% of them #DNMW

[Tim Goergen @Tim_Goergen]

🎯. Well said.

[Adam Ruff @AdamRuffPhoto]

There are a ton of reasons the Tigers will lose this game and generally why this team sucks.

But it begins off the field and with the decision makers.

There’s zero accountability, which means there’s zero leadership.

It’s the only reason such bad things happen consistently.

[Tim Goergen @Tim_Goergen]

Bad baseball teams do bad baseball things. This is partly on Hinch, partly on Vierling. Hinch thinks whatever he touches turns to gold. Vierling, despite not being a CF by trade, should know you can’t make an idgaf throw back into the infield. Failures all around.

[Jim Costa @JimCosta_]

Matt Vierling in outer space with no urgency

Throws a bouncing ball to second which gives the Angels an extra run

[Tim Goergen @Tim_Goergen]

The coach should get a lifetime ban from competitive sports and the kid should sit for a year or two. Period.

[Joe Kinsey @JoeKinseyexp]

TRAVEL BALL CHAOS: A Nebraska 11U coach claims an Oklahoma coach ordered his pitcher to throw at the opposing team's dugout.

Of all the disturbing videos out of travel ball this year, this might be the worst yet.

The Tigers continue to find new ways to lose. It’s lol at this point.

[Tim Goergen @Tim_Goergen]

@TonyPaul1984 They should follow the Pistons lead and move to free local TV too.

[Tim Goergen @Tim_Goergen]

Young pitchers: don’t do this.

[Dan Clark @DanClarkSports]

First time I have ever heard of, or seen, Connor Fennell.

Hopefully the last.

[Tim Goergen @Tim_Goergen]

@Hayden_Collins8 Really really great post, man. Awesome perspective.

[Tim Goergen @Tim_Goergen]

Good for this kid, happy for him.

[Antonio Curro @ACNY2LA]

6-6 SG Gehrig Normand @GehrigNormand20 is off the board with a verbal commitment to HC Andy Enfield @Coach_Enfield and @SMUBasketball this morning.

The Texas native is a former Top 100 prospect nationally with 2-3 years of eligibility remaining.

[Fryedaddy/Frito @shegone03]

This makes me sick to my stomach!!!

It doesn’t matter how hard your 8 year old throws folks!

They should be having fun, learning the game and making friends!

THAT’S IT!

Shame on you @ArmCarecom 👎🏻

This Bobby Cox/Tiger Woods story is one of the greatest coaching tales I have EVER heard…

A local team has a spot in their rotation…

Does @BauerOutage get another shot?

The NBA has a serious flopping problem. It’s a Duke and Wisconsin flop party on steroids.

Matt Chapman since he told Casey Schmitt to catch the fkn ball:

0-HR/.608-OPS

Casey Schmitt since he was told to catch the fkn ball:

6-HR/.941-OPS

Maybe Casey should tell Matt to hit the fkn ball, am I right?

@EmilyCWaldon This made my day. So awesome, Emily. Keep smiling.

Uhhhh, sure.

"It was not intentional. It was not on purpose. It may look like that, but it wasn't."
