    Game Thread: Detroit Lions @ >=< ? Dolphins

    So that's what a BALANCED offense looks like. I like it.

    "Dougie humor" ... as in "laughed at", not "laughed with" ?

    Detroit Tigers Ongoing 2018 Thread

    I'd say it's most likely they get someone from another franchise .... and pairing that guy with Smoltz being the analyst would be fantastic!

    2019: Who Stays, Who Goes

    I forgot that Reyes can now go back to the minors. As a Rule 5 guy, we were only obligated to roster him at the MLB level for one season. I would agree with him getting some minor league seasoning. I'm just not sold on Greene. His career ERAs are below. It's starting to look like 2017 may...

    Will probably see Cabrera and Stewart alternate at DH.

    2019: Who Stays, Who Goes

    Just some thoughts and opinions looking ahead to what will likely be just as bad of a season as 2018. The list could of course change with trade and/or FA announcements. RETURNING: C James McCann – Didn’t have a good year at the plate, but threw out almost 40% of potential base stealers and...

    Probably not a good idea to get into a publicized altercation a month before your contracts expire.

    Lions stats through first 1/4 of the season.

    I think over half would be labeled "coverage sacks". Credit the DBs, which is the only decent part of our defense.

    Can't knock JV this season. Led the majors with a 0.902 WHIP and 7.84 K/BB ratio, led the AL in strikeouts for the fifth time, and posted a 2.52 ERA. Alas, that will probably earn him his third career Cy Young runner-up. Blake Snell in Tampa seems to be a shoo-in. 21-5 with a 1.89 ERA.

    AL CENTRAL DISCUSSION

    OSU is going to destroy both Michigan and Michigan State this year. Not thrilled with the season my Spartans are having so far. So much hope with them returning 18 of 22 starters, but they all seem to be making freshman mistakes this year.

    This was my WTF moment after week 2

    Kerryon averaged over 6 yards per carry, though one run went for 32 yards. Take that out, and he averaged less than 3 yards per carry. But I guess the mere fact that he can break a long run (and Blount pretty much can't) dictates that Johnson should get more than 9 carries in a game.

    Game Thread: Lions vs Cowgirls

    Understood. My point is, while it is average for the league, it is above average for Prescott and the Cowboys. Really, two fairly long passes to Elliott made the final number look better. If we had an LB that could cover a back.....

    Stafford was actually pretty good yesterday. The Lions front 7 on defense, not so much.

    Game Thread: Lions vs Cowgirls

    And yet Prescott, who hadn't had a 200-yard passing game since Week 15 last year, threw for 255 against us. I counted on Elliott getting his yards, but thought we could contain the passing game better yesterday.

    Still hopeful for Ragnow, but not a great start....

    Decker, Wagner and Lang were all more disappointing that Ragnow this week. Lang hasn't been able to stay on the field much since we signed him.

    THREE CHEERS for the AL CENTRAL! Two 100+ loss teams and a 98-loss team.

    LOL ... another shutout to end the season. Appropriate.

    Game Thread: Lions vs Cowgirls

    I think every Lions fan in Michigan and around the world called that final FG drive. As usual, the Lions do just enough bad things to lose.

    Who was that team who played the Patriots last night?

    You got me.... they ran the ball and stopped the run.

    Still hopeful for Ragnow, but not a great start....

    Went through the rankings in your link. Ragnow has the lowest rating of any guard in the league. And only two other lineman overall (RT Bobby Hart-CIN at 42.2 and C Ryan Groy-BUF at 39.9) have a lower rating.

    Have a day, Christin Stewart! First Tiger rookie with at least 6 RBI in a game since, dare I say it ... Ryan Raburn.

    All that money spent on the run game

    Yeah, hard to use the run game much when the team is almost immediately behind by two scores.

    Michael Fulmer has a torn right meniscus. Will require surgery and he has a "full offseason of recovery ahead of him."
