Maldonado stranded at third. Man ,I don't know how he keeps a happy face on when he is constantly geting on and the guys behind him can't produce.

Still a good inning. Faedo is just about done and we got another one of the board without hitting the ball well.

the Tigers front office is very, very, very happy that Cabrera's contract is finally coming to an end

I can't imagine the awkward conversations they've had with him / his agent the past few years about retiring and him going "Uh, no, cuz I sure like that $38 million a year!"

Does anyone know how many baseballs a MLB game goes through per game ? It must be a bunch ?

I like how Verlander just throws them to the bench when he doesn't like the ball

Here's about the most horrific stats I've ever come up with and shows the perils of giving a superstar a really long-term back-ended contract.

At the end of the 2016 season, Miguel Cabrera had played in 2,095 games and hit 436 home runs. That's a 162-game average of 34 homers per season.

From 2017 through today's game, he has played in 681 games and hit 63 home runs. That's a 162-game average of 15 homers per game.

He got to 500 home runs on August 22, 2021. He's played in 221 games since then and has only hit NINE more.



You wonder why he's not getting the Judge and Albert commemorative baseball to hit.

Little known fact: George Springer has never gone more than 5 consecutive innings without getting hurt.

Jeez, you read my mind. I thought that when I saw he had 2 flipping home runs for the whole year.
