No. He said they're going to be more aggressive. That means nothing unless they actually land someone. It could mean anything and is more lawyer speak bullshit. He should just STFU about the offseason until they have a presser to announce a signing.

Holy shit that was much needed.

Talk is cheap. Who knows what that means though.

Yup I agree.

Wtf is going on? I don't understand this the Tigers offense sucks.

Those last two were really cheap.

You're way too negative about everything.

No doubt. That last one gets him if he throws it in its intended spot.

Yup.

McCann's pitch calling is getting incredibly predictable.

Their lineup is just awful without Moncada.

I'm just happy that he turned it around and went from bust to boom. He was really bad last year. He's done some stuff grip wise to help with his FB spin rate as well. The stuff he did is right out of the Astros pitching lab playbook. I always believed in him but there were times I felt like I was wearing the dunce cap defending him still getting starts with the Sox. I'm a sucker for pitching. I enjoy watching pitchers perform their craft. I've always considered it the most cerebral position on the baseball field along with catcher.

Why? I find this funny. To be honest, I don't think he would have ever been this good without changing his arm swing and shortening it up. The talent was always there, but that adjustment has really unlocked his TOR potential.

Me too. I'm with you on Anderson. He's always going to be a hacker, he's always going to be streaky.

Gio just hit 96 on that one. He's back.

Timmeh is always gonna be streaky. His entire value revolves around him getting hits. He's a hacker.

Why aren't they learning and getting Robert acclimated? They really should call him up.

His rookie year is looking a lot like Moncada's first full season. I think he's going to make a huge jump next year, just like Yoan did this year. The talent is apparent.

How in the hell am I the only one in the gamethread? Everyone else check out for the season??? Gio's starting tonight, there's still reason to watch.

I wish Hahn would STFU until they actually sign someone this offseason.

OMG Abreu walked!?!?!?

So does anyone else thing a good goal for Giolito is getting his ERA back under 3.00 by the end of the season? Do you think he can do it? It's at 3.39 entering tonight.

Dunning, yeah I Already said he wasn't going to be ready until next July at the earliest.

Yeah Dunning will be 25 in December. He's pretty old for a prospect.

Dunning should be MLB ready by July unless he completely loses his command after TJS. It happens to some. I understand why you say we can't count on them but Giolito/Cease/Bumgarner/Lopez/Kopech and Nova as the long man should be enough to get by. That rotation has the potential to be absolutely awesome.
