That was in the day when quality workmanship mattered. Sometime around 2000, maybe a little after, quality started to slide. Use of MIM parts, things like that.

Now, Remington as I knew it is no more.

Tigers bullpen blew another well pitched game by Tarik Skubal. Won't blame him if he bolts for another team in free agency.

@SolarWarden

Rumors going around the Padres may make a huge trade for Skubal before the trade deadline if the Tigers fall out of the race for the playoffs.

Padres are in the middle of being sold so no new salary is being added just like the off season. Also Tigers are only half a game from first place in their division and you can bet the Dodgers would C-block the Padres by acquiring him with a ridiculous offer to the Tigers which they can afford to do.

Before start of season Padres were already in need of starting pitching and did nothing then a few weeks ago our ace, who wasn't supposed to be an ace but was pitching great, started having soreness in his arm and now is on IR. It's win or crash and burn with the roster we got even if we're in first place come trade deadline Padres aren't adding salary to take them over the next level.

Dodgers are fearless when it comes to trades and FAs. They're loaded with $$$ and don't mind paying the additional tax. That's good for them but bad for MLB. MLB needs a salary cap system.

The San Diego Padres are in the process of being sold for the largest amount in MLB history. The team is going through negotiations to be sold for about $3.9 billion to the co-owner of Chelsea Football club, Jose E. Feliciano and his wife, Kwanza Jones.8 hours ago

A floor cap too. Like a team has to be over $90 million in payroll.

Six Tigers on the opening day roster now injured. Two starting pitchers, a reliever, two infielders and an outfielder.

Here comes pitching chaos and a different batting lineup for each game.

Had no idea Feliciano was still alive. Goerge Benson did a much better rendition of Feliciano's song Affirmation.

Ohhh wait my bad wrong Jose Feliciano. The possible new owner of Padres is Puerto Rican and those people down at that Island love baseball and have produced many all star and hall of fame players through the decades so maybe we'll be in good hands.
