@clarkisking1 Might be Brett Callahan in LF and Greene, like Carpenter, playing elsewhere after the Tigers cash them both in on a collection of top prospects.

Also, I suspect Keith might be platooning with either Anderson or Lee at 2B.

[Jeff Klenner @klenner]

@TigersData Maybe if someone comes up with a stat simply keeping track of scooping throws in the dirt, Torkelson will have some claim to fame because, I agree, he is good at that NARROW aspect of a first baseman’s defensive skills. But he’s a distinct failure in every other aspect.

[Jeff Klenner @klenner]

@TigersData I trust the metrics and NOT your individual “eye test.” Simply being adept at digging throws out of the dirt does not make someone a great defender at 1B.

[Jeff Klenner @klenner]

@clay_snowden2 Nope.

Anderson and Callahan should be brought up and play in Detroit after August 15th. With a glut of LH hitters on the active roster and in the pipeline, the Tigers desperately need all the decent RH bats they can get.

@tigersMLreport I think it should say “through July 26”, unless you already know the result of tonight’s game.

Do you STAND with Gavin Newsom against Trump? Yes 👍 No 👎

Spencer Torkelson is 3-37 (.081) with the bases loaded in his career.

That’s the worst mark in baseball history.

Valencia’s debut was a movie 🤩

@BosscherBen I don’t know that there’s necessarily a proven correlation between trading away a player and him not accepting the highest bid to return to his old team. Flaherty did it. Lots of players have done it in the past. Players nowadays generally understand it’s a business…

The man. The myth. The legend. Satchel Paige in colour

Arguably the coolest guy in baseball history

@KwanDislike I would suggest that denigrating other people for having differing opinions rather than debating the substance of their statements, that’s a clear sign of inferior mental aptitude.

[Jeff Klenner @klenner]

@KwanDislike Part of the reason this team is performing so poorly is that it’s awash in unproductive players who are seemingly being kept around for sentimental reasons when there are acceptable alternatives available at Toledo to plug into those positions.

This is seriously the cringiest collapse of a nation in real time.

[Jeff Klenner @klenner]

@rogcastbaseball Sorry that you have to deal with immature people railing against you with hyperbolic replies — as if you’re responsible for the disappointing season.

[Jeff Klenner @klenner]

@rogcastbaseball Your analysis was thorough and accurate and informative, Rogelio. Kudos.

A complimentary piece could be comparing Harris’ performance with other GM/PBO’s steering of other teams. But that’s obviously a huge undertaking to identify franchises at similar points in development.

@TimothyDSnyder This is well past the point of the 25th amendment being justified and necessary.
