It wasn't only that a few higher-profile guys (Callahan, Peck, Stephenson, etc.) had a fine first series for Double-A Erie -- it was a couple of newcomers, one with a 100-mph fastball, who impressed. Tigers Intelligence Report open.substack.com/pub/tigersin...
Cold games, hot starts, even early for a band of Erie stars: Callahan, Stephenson, Peck, Jenkins, and a pair of newcomers
The SeaWolves lost some celebrities (McGonigle, Clark, et al) and aren't getting a lot of love heading into 2026. But check out that first series against Lehigh, and ask: Why the shrugs?

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. “What can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.

The past two Tigers signing scorecards from Latin America, including Wednesday's formal announcements, hint that a long-fumbling MLB club has turned around its domestic, and international, safaris. What's changed? Detroit News story. shorturl.at/rZMnv

Can we just admit that we NEED immigrants for our economy to run, from agriculture to high tech?
We’re a goddamn nation of immigrants, aren’t we? Let’s be proud of our immigrant heritage!

Should we continue to encourage kids to go to college ? Or push them to take up a trade ?
I believe in college. Learning how to learn, IMO, is a critical life skill. Being exposed to people of different backgrounds, makes yiu wiser
Qualifier- it should be a school you can afford.

Charlie Maxwell -- when Hula Hoops and sock-hops were in vogue, baseball's blessings were embodied by a Sunday home-run specialist from Paw Paw, Michigan. Detroit News farewell. shorturl.at/oWG1q
Maxwell was the living embodiment of idyllic Tigers Sundays in the 1950s

@gregolear.bsky.social is 100% right when he predicts if GOP repeals ACA and replaces it with anything less than universal healthcare there will be hell to pay. Vigilantes will be coming for them from both sides of the political spectrum. #EnoughIsEnough
