Cuffed, ripped jeans on the red carpet of your first ever all-star game is a choice

#TheYearofKevinMcGonigle The lad is buffed up on the red carpet and everything… 🥹 so proud. #RepDetroit

2026 Home Run Derby Jordan Walker vs The City of Philadelphia Winner: Jordan Walker This was awesome.

If you took a shot every time they showed Brandon Marsh tonight you would’ve needed your stomach pumped by 10 PM

Props to Justin Verlander for not dropping a “what the fuck are you talking about?” to A-Rod here. DFA’d twice? Verlander has never been DFA’d. Late round pick? He was a Top 5 Overall pick in his draft. Usually in on A-Rod the analyst, but this is bad.

Kick rocks. Idk when Passan suddenly became the holder of the baseball thought consensus, but the old format sucked. Couldn’t keep up w/ any of the balls flying out because of swings every four seconds. Maybe let’s see what happens first before we shit on it?

I give ESPN a lot of shit. It’s deserved. They don’t do anything for the game of baseball. But shoutout to Pat McAfee + the PMS for embracing baseball. Showing out for All-Star Game Week + went out to Omaha and put College Baseball on National display.

I completely get it. All-Star Break. Guys need to travel. Families need to travel. Again, I get it. But I really am missing something on this Sunday without Sunday Night Baseball. Hell, I’d even take a nationally televised minor league game right now.

James Wood has been an absolute star this season James Wood in his last 15 games: .351 BA 8 HR 15 RBI 16 BB/15 K 1.318 OPS

@JoeDoyleMiLB Eager to see what elite hitting 3B the Nats draft out of Coral Gables in 2029

YoYo Morales AND Daniel Cuvet in Washington? Sign me up.

Eduardo Valencia cannot be stopped right now #RepDetroit

@Det_Coney Hate to say we nailed it, but we kinda did.

@CalicoJoeMLB I like the idea of flukey. I saw a bunch of people had a top 10 grade on him before he got hurt this year, but he probably goes to Cleveland and haunts us for the rest of our lives.

Happy 2026 MLB Draft Day 1 to those who celebrate May your mock draft not be a mockery by the end of the night

🚨 Cameron Flukey rundown 🚨 • 96-99 mph RHP from Coastal Carolina • Top college pitching prospect in ‘26 suffered a broken rib in Feb, refused to sit out his draft year. “I’m here to pitch. It’s what I love.” • MLB Pipeline’s No. 15 prospect

Tigers 2026 First Round draft pick Cameron Flukey’s favorite pitchers growing up: Mariano Rivera C.C. Sabathia Justin Verlander Max Scherzer Gerrit Cole I’m in on the guy already.

@Det_Coney They’ve been linked to a lot of different names. I don’t think even they know yet. There’s a clear pattern of prep SS who hit left-handed, but there’s a lack of top pitching prospects left in the system. My best guess would be guys like Cole Carlon, Cameron Flukey, Aiden Ruiz.

@CalicoJoeMLB Who the tigers picking?

Objects in mirror are closer than they appear

#TheYearOfKevinMcGonigle Making the hometown team pay for passing on him 👀 #RepDetroit

July 10th has been a terrible day for the Detroit Tigers in recent history: 2012 - Verlander gives up 5 runs to NL in opening frame of ASG 2015 - Brian Dozier hits 3-run HR for Twins to cap a 7-run 9th inning to win 8-6 over Tigers 2022 - Robbie Grossman drops fly ball; ends the longest errorless streak in MLB history and the Tigers eventually lose 4-2 Let’s hope we can avoid disaster today…..

This is what baseball is all about. All around incredible moment and story for Eduardo Valencia.
