Is Torkelson even a prospect anymore?

Kerry Carpenter looks pretty good. I would expect them to get demolished in the divisional round, should they make it.

They just won again today. Beware the young, naive team on a huge roll!


Torkelson is Rob Deer playing first base. I don't think he's on the team next year. It's Parker Meadows who's been the MVP. And Riley Greene is an all-star who's still going to get better. The pitching has been fantastic. But they're so young it really doesn't make sense for them to be playing this well.

So all the Detroit Tigers need now going into a season ending three game series against the woeful Chicago White Sox is one win (or a loss by the Twins) and they'll clinch a playoff spot!

I get that you're from Detroit, but how is Parker Meadows, the MVP, he's hitting .243 in 250 AB????

He plays gold-glove caliber center field in a park where it really makes a difference. He's hitting .296 since he came back in August from injury. The team is 20 games over .500 when he's in the lineup.

And he's clutch: Parker Meadows, with his two home run thefts – one in Seattle against Cal Raleigh and the other in Baltimore against Colton Cowser. Meadows again, with two dramatic game-winning hits: The walk-off single that beat the Yankees in the Little League Classic at Williamsport and, of course, the two-out, 3-2 grand slam homer that beat San Diego 4-3.


And by the way....THE DETROIT TIGERS ARE IN THE PLAYOFFS!!

They're 31-11 in their last 42 games. Youngest roster in baseball. Best manager and best pitching coach. And whomever they play has to face Tarik Skubal in game 1. I wouldn't bet against them at this point. I don't think the Yankmees even wanna play this team right now.

As a Yankee fan, I can assure you...the Yankees are definitely beatable this year. Especially if you can navigate around Judge and Soto and get to their bullpen.
