I wonder if Tork ever played any OF in college?
Hey @Bols if the tigers lose opening day would you give up on the season? Or would you fight for tomorrow knowing it’s a marathon season?

Why would you ask that? @Bols never gives up always fights for tomorrow.

It was kinda a lay up for my friend… I could show my father. Who thinks opening day decides the entire season.
@Bols knows I love him

Yeah, I’ve been a huge Tiger fan my whole life. Win or lose, I love those bastards.
I can’t say I don’t get frustrated, but giving up on them has never even crossed my mind.

Last year brought me 100% back to baseball, the entire season not just the last 10weeks.
Love what the Tigers are doing in the Minors and what Hinch is doing in Detroit

Very cool
Kid is sincere from what I hear, so I believe it. At same time, way to play the leverage card on Ilitch and Harris.

On deck: Tigers at Dodgers
Series: Three games, Dodger Stadium, Los Angeles
First pitch: 7:10 p.m. Thursday, 10:10 p.m. Friday, 9:10 p.m. Saturday
TV/radio: Thursday on ESPN, 97.1; Friday-Saturday on FanDuel Sports Network Detroit, 97.1
Probables: Thursday ― LHP Tarik Skubal (0-0, 0.00) vs. LHP Blake Snell (0-0, 0.00); Friday ― RHP Jack Flaherty (0-0, 0.00) vs. RHP Yoshinobu (1-0, 1.80); Saturday ― RHP Reese Olson (0-0, 0.00) vs. RHP Roki Sasaki (0-0, 3.00)
THURSDAY’S SCOUTING REPORT
Skubal: Coming off a Triple Crown (led the American League in wins, ERA and strikeouts) and Cy Young-winning season, Skubal had a dominant spring, posting a 2.33 ERA and 0.828 WHIP in five starts with 24 strikeouts and one walk. This is his second straight Opening Day start and his first ever at Dodger Stadium. He threw six strong innings against the Dodgers at Comerica Park last season, allowing two hits, two runs with eight strikeouts.
Snell: The Dodgers signed the two-time Cy Young winner for $182 million over five years despite being limited to 20 starts with nagging lower-body injuries last season. He was limited to 4.2 innings this spring, as well, and didn’t pitch in the Tokyo Series. So it’s unclear how much he’s built up. But when he’s healthy, he’s elite with five pitches with positive run values, per Statcast, including one of the best curveballs in the game. He had a 37.7% whiff rate last season.
