Just a matter of throwing strikes…. But that guy can mess with hitters when he’s on. No one throws that pitch anymore. And I love a nasty knuckleball. Sure hope he gets to the Majors at some point

Dickey?? Did they call Weaver “Dickey”??

Did Weaver throw one? I apologize I don’t remember his.

Big difference between throwing 5 a game and legit 90 percent guy.

Those are what I miss the most.

The batter knows it’s coming and still swinging wildly.

He most certainly did…he had a weird form and every thing. Doyle Alexander was like that too from what I remember

Tim had a slower one. But he was nasty at times too.

Tigers are actually 32-20 since June 1st.

It goes back a lot longer than recent series against weaker teams, and the Tigers swept the Rays, White Sox, and Yankees in that time… plus won series against the Twins, Mariners, and Cubs.

But… craft that spreadsheet however you will.

THANK YOU! My God I am not claiming that this team will make the playoffs…and lord knows I’d be disappointed if they didn’t, but man the narratives that are being driven out are mind boggling… :shaking_face:
