Tigers need to get Jackson Jobe on the fast track.

That guy is gonna be niiiiiiiice.

Hopefully someone makes them a crazy Skubal offer soon. Not really tryna face Skubal, Olson and Jobe in 2026 with the potential that Mize also removes his head from his ass.

I'm hoping they sign Skubal to some kind of sweetheart deal but he'd be stupid to sign it.

Jobe should be up next year he's had some injury issues but yea...dude is sick.

Yeah my biggest worry would be its July and he's not even at 40 innings yet. So next year even if he's great will probably be on a innings limit.

But should be a full menace by 2026

He was a little wild to start the year considering he only walked 6 guys in 60 innings last year but the most insane stat is he's only allowed 3 extra base hits in 30 innings this year and 0 home runs.

Skubal one win, 14ks and .14 ERA off the pitching triple crown

Why did I not know Boras was his agent. Fuck.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Twins went with their righty lineup today vs the lefty. That wasn’t a surprise. I knew Wallner, Kepler and Larnach woulr sit.

Here is what’s fucking batshit. Vazquez and Jeffers are BOTH playing. And the DH is fucking VAZQUEZ.

What in the flying fuck. Makes no sense since the reason given for why he starts is his defense. DH?? This also means we plan to start Vazquez again tomorrow since we never catch back to back.

Last thing, it’s a HORRID look for Farmer. Vs a lefty we are choosing to DH Vazquez instead of starting farmer at 2B and DH someone like Miranda/Santana/Buxton.

Farmer DFA looming when royce returns if no one else gets hurt

Boras has been rail roading his credibility lately. Might be a decent thing

 

[Wamu]

Disappointed that more Guardians games haven't been nationally televised considering their current record. Hopefully that'll change after the break. But I doubt it.

Hope so man but me thinks more likely he tries to make a point. Can't he just fucking die already?

Doesn't help that your owner is a cheap fuck.

Names drive ratings.

No doubt about that. Dolan is terrible. Hopefully David Blitzer will increase his stake in the team. Right now he has 25%. I thought I heard he'll end up buying Dolan out. Gonna check on that, not sure.

Hey @dtgold88

A little help with Cleveland baseball.

The Tigers owner is a cheap fuck too. Unfortunately when he does spend his GM spends like a drunk virgin at a strip club.

Pretty sure he has option to buy him out maybe in a couple years...also really hope he does.

Same here. And thanks for the answer.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

This means royce will be back after ASB I think. Calling up a bench warm body to hold off for 3 games.

Farmer getting Gallo’d and gonna go chill on IL til other injuries come haha

I feel like I’ve seen a lot of good pitching performances this year but his start vs the Phils was exceptional. Had good hitters guessing all day.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Get in now on your Colt Keith for ROY bets.

Dude is raking.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

That was a huge fucking win with our depleted lineup. Staring down the barrel of a sweep going into the break with Paddack going would have been nightmare fuel.

Now even if we lose tomorrow wont be that damaging standings wise as all the teams in central/WC around us have gone 1-1 this weekend as well

Christian Vazquez had to play 3B for an entire game, unbelievable

Hopefully Miranda, Buxton and Correa are all minor injuries that heal with ASB. Just a brutal 3 to lose

 

[Fountain City Blues]

Royals just grabbed Hunter Harvey off the Nats. Good peripherals. Arguably their new best reliever right now.
