All four GMs have flaws, but which GM upsets up the most?
Transcript
00:00it was uh dingler carpenter and riley green yep okay quite a little a little trivia for you jim
00:10okay and they might have said it on the broadcast i don't know last time the tigers went back to
00:15back to back who were the players god can you give me what year it was 2020 oh this is
00:25come on
00:26that's such a lost season um jimmy dusi no is grayson griner in there nope i'll give you a hint
00:34brandon dixon nico goodrum well i'll get to nico in a second i'll give you a hint all three had
00:41the
00:41same their last name started with the same initial
00:45was a castro in there no but you are correct on the initial yes
00:54sounds like one of these might have been a deep drive to left
00:58all right miguel cabrera okay the great cj crone oh there you go and jamer candelaria okay it was
01:07the first inning against the pittsburgh penguins on august 8th pittsburgh penguins pittsburgh
01:12pirates august 8th 2020 nico they had four home runs in that first inning nico goodrum did hit one
01:19of them um and it was off of a pitcher that would later be with the tigers can i guess
01:26yeah
01:27i was gonna guess a pittsburgh penguin but you already started derrick derrick holland it's okay
01:32yes and also today is the six the 16th anniversary of the galaraga game today is yes june 2nd 2000
01:42and whatever jim joyce was the empire 10 2010 yes okay i can't do math you know it's all good
01:50yeah got the sun coming up thanks for getting up with us 248-539-9797 tigers did win yesterday
01:56yes five home runs long overdue but boy did they make it tense at the end eight walks baby
02:01will vest enters a game with the bases loaded not his fault yeah he gets the ground ball should have
02:07been out of there oops yep how you lee sorry uh when's bo briski get sent back i don't know
02:13stony
02:14vest ended up throwing 40 pitches career high got a five out save and they came all the way down
02:19to a
02:19run a one run win they should pitch flaherty tonight till his arm falls off it's 10-5 it was
02:25done right
02:25yeah no way stony third time through he's got to get out of there that is the this is why
02:33i argued last
02:34week you guys kind of scoffed at it but i'd said they need to have a start of flaherty until
02:38he gets
02:39to the third time to the lineup and then montero comes in and does the same thing well this is
02:43why
02:45aj's managerial malfeasance killed them for yesterday i mean they won the game but if he
02:50doesn't take montero out you know he doesn't tax the bullpen yes yeah anyway it's one game they
02:59probably need to win another 63 to make the playoffs yes exactly um just some basic math to
03:05get to 86 uh flaherty tonight so buckle up it's the over under on walks although he only had
03:11won his last game i think or none buckle up but hey you know dingler said maybe this could be
03:16the
03:17turning point and i don't even mean it's snarky like they have to think that way they have to look
03:21for breakthroughs he had a couple home runs yesterday it's their job i mean you got to try to
03:27win baseball games he did not pull a jake rogers no but this can we play dingler just i think
03:32this
03:32is a measured approach this is what dingler said after the game
03:44hopefully he's right acknowledge they haven't been played that's why it's been negative right but hey
03:48one foot in front of the other man no problem all right we've been talking about uh the miles
03:58garrett move shocks the nfl yesterday he's going out to la less need f them picks it's already built
04:04one super bowl now they have the defensive version of the stafford trade and we're left wondering hmm
04:08thought these guys were unavailable right but you couldn't get these people these micah parsons and
04:15miles garrett's hell even max crosby was going to be dealt that's right thought these guys were
04:21unavailable it grows a sense of frustration that you can feel with all of the general managers
04:27so our question isn't just a single out brad holmes because i actually think he's the best of the
04:30bunch which gm are you most frustrated with right now wow i'm gonna give langdon a pass for one more
04:38year um holmes did a good job drafting so for the most part in building the team from
04:47the bottom to where it is eiserman's records i'm gonna stop i mean and i think down the line he
04:54might
04:54turn out to be really good at putting a team together but i'm gonna go scott harris and the reason
05:02is
05:02because of the trading deadlines the last three seasons whether it's his fault or not they f'd up
05:08the uh rodriguez situation the year before was was really bad uh last year they didn't get a bat and
05:16they got two you know over the hill pitchers who stunk wasting money uh so i'm gonna say i'm more
05:22frustrated with scott harris because i believed that the tigers you know with their pitching last year
05:27and they proved it had a chance to actually go far and i believe as many people do that would
05:34by not getting a bat that chance was eliminated yeah if we're doing a blood pressure index you know
05:42the people who are getting you most frustrated i wouldn't have trajan langdon at the top no although
05:48this is a pivotal off season for him and i think that if if you're sitting on your hands blood
05:52pressure
05:52is going to come up brad holmes is the only gm in this city who's made their conference
05:57championship and i certainly have my gripes but he's not the one i'm most frustrated in no
06:05i respect what you're saying about harris because they've had such an obvious need that they have
06:11ignored and gaslit the fan base don't want to block guys top five offense losing sleep it's the
06:17same names like all of those quotes only add to the irritation because it's like it's like you won't
06:22even acknowledge what we all see and know and that certainly bothers me but the guy i'm most
06:28frustrated in is steve eiserman i'm sure yeah look he's been here the longest i don't even have a
06:32valdez move that i can point to where they really went for it right well they gave up a first
06:37round
06:37pick at this deadline uh and then fox a decent player look the bottom line is i don't think there's
06:43really a wrong answer they're all the same i mean what's different about them all
06:52i mean you think if we did a 23 and me they'd all be related yes they would be and
06:58right now i mean
06:59even when you know you know trajan langdon i mean you know who did he draft i mean drafted ron
07:05holland
07:06that was not a really good a great draft pick i don't think still early in his career but yeah
07:11right
07:11but i'm looking at eiserman saying you haven't even made the playoffs right you're the longest and
07:16you haven't even made the playoffs your prospect pool right all these picks
07:24i don't you're right i suppose i suppose it's splitting hairs and they are further away from
07:29the playoffs than any of the other teams the red wigs i red wings are not going to make the
07:36playoffs next year barring some crazy off season miracle yes they're the furthest from a title of
07:41any team in town yes they're in the longest drought in the history of their organization
07:46they desecrated the centennial season by choking again in the month of march
07:53all with players that he drafted signed or extended correct so yeah i'm most frightened
07:59and here's the other thing with eiserman there's an extra cachet because you love the dude right and
08:05you hate how much he's making you hate him right so the frustration yeah i get it look like i
08:10said
08:10i don't think there's a wrong answer i'm not defending steve eiserman at all yeah uh it's
08:15incredible you know look i i do believe for most cases it does take a really long time to get
08:21a
08:21stanley cup contender but it shouldn't take this long to make the playoffs phone calls feedback
08:28stoney's right if we did the dna test there's shared ideology in all these guys somebody's been
08:36effing around okay i didn't want to go quite that far but
08:42we want to know who you're most frustrated with 97.1
