With the NFL upon us, the Tigers are an after thought right now. However, it was good to see Dingler crank one and Greene has been on fire. Some hope for the future.

Clark has really come alive. Might be time to move him up in the lineup. His average is all the way up to .273.

Cant wait for the day that him and McG are a permanent fixture at the top of the lineup.

I was out all day and had the UM game on yttv, thought the game was tonight.

With football season kicking off, you have to be a hardcore Tigers fan to still be paying attention.

Of note though the White Sox are choking.

I enjoy watching the team… and the young guys develop.

Max, McGonigle, Lee, and Valencia all had good games today. It was a good day for the rookies!

Absolutely agree.
I picked up a side hustle to help stay ahead of medical bills, try too, so not able to watch on weekend day games.

This was one of the very few games I have missed this year. We had a little family Michigan party today, and then the same thing with the Lions tomorrow.

I’m with you though. The young guys on the Tigers are so much fun to watch. We got more heading our way too. I think its going to be a great time to be a Tigers fan.

I flipped over to the Tiger’s game yesterday after the U of M game. That was one hell of an 8th inning.

McGonigle continues the September rookie of the year validation, a triple, missed a HR by less than a foot.

Yea, lot to like going into next season, well hopefully that means 2027.
Really like the fact that Jobe is getting this second half to come back from his injury.
Valdez has been looking better as well.

We are going to win a world series with these foundational pieces. I guarantee it. It’s not a matter of if. Its a matter of when.

World series are hard to come by. Last one was 1984. However, you have to like this team to be in the mix for a few years and when you have a solid core and clubhouse that cares for their teammates then anything is possible. I think the Jay were like that last year and took LA to game seven and probably should have won it despite the payroll difference.

Some decisions still have to be made. Tork comes to mind as to whether or not he’ll stick around as there are a number of good home run hitting prospects in the system. Tough decisions but it’s nice to have options.
