He’s bad because he gets hurt every year. I’m sorry, but he’s terrible out there. They can try him out there the rest of the season, but he’ll probably get hurt again...or nobody should be surprised if he does get hurt again.

Basabe to Birmingham

Agreed. Start a game thread, please.

Delmonico is still here

HIs best position is batters box, and it always will be. His value is getting 650 PAs every year. DH or 1B.

Eloy will be re-evaluated in two weeks

Probably will hear something at 10; usually media gets in there 3 hours before first pitch.

Agreed, I’m not suggesting Abreu should be awarded a homer now or in the future for that play. Just change a nonsense rule for the future.

They would if they noticed it. The overall rule change should be- Once a ball is over the wall, the act of rounding the bases for the hitter and other runners is just ceremonial. Runners could have missed bases or passed each other, umpires don’t need to stick around on game ending homers to see if the bags and plate are touched. If they can skip throwing pitches on an intentional walk, this is a rule that can be changed too.

Tigers did nothing wrong. Every team would have done the same thing, because it is a rule that everyone knows. It’s just a rule that doesn’t need to be enforced if the ball is over the wall. If every team would accept the rule change going forward, and I think they would, it’s definitely one worth changing because there’s nothing a fielder can do once the ball is over the wall on the fly.

Agree, it’s a stupid rule. If the ball is over the fence, all the runs should count.

Collins hitting .259 in AAA with his ability to walk. Would definitely like to see him up soon.

Madrigal rbi single

Parke gave up 3 in the first, LuBob K, Madrigal groundout

At the very least, he’s gotta know not dive into the stands on the line, or plant his foot into the wall thinking he can make a catch. But yeah, get him a first baseman’s glove now.

I stand corrected if that is the case. But today’s game was postponed, not cancelled. Anyone in baseball media saying cancelled is stupid as they should know the difference.

Sorry, not buying it, Today's game has been postponed.

Good time to remind everyone that postponed and cancelled aren't interchangeable words. Postponed means it will be made up later. Cancelled means it won't be made up at all. Bruce, you suck.

Yes, to save you from clicking. Bobbblehead is Game 1 on July 3rd

Split doubleheader July 3 If you have tickets for today, you have a ticket for Game 1 July 3rd.

Anderson shouldn't have been tagging up, Abreu didn't look to see if he was passing a teammate, and Boston was standing there seemingly not saying anything. Clean it up. BUt they won, and it was fun. Not sure why they haven't postponed yet. They've known for a couple days they aren't playing tonight.
