  • Great Tigers Analysis

    Listened all season & was a great show with a lot of insights. I appreciate that the commentary was honest & unbiased. Would like to see more shows weekly as there were plenty of gaps this season. Evan has a tendency to be VERY repetitive at times which like the Tigers whiff rate can be very frustrating. If Evan can work on this in the off season it would greatly improve his production. Really like Chris Brown on other podcasts & he was an excellent addition to this podcast as well. I would like... more

  • Angry Host

    Evan just seems angry all the time. Chris Brown is a great guest and partner, love Chris. Free Press needs to switch Evan off the beat, as I’m pretty sure he just hates the Tigers front office over past events. It comes across.

  • Constructive criticism

    Evan, please slow down your cadence. It often sounds like you’re a trial lawyer desperately trying to make all of your points before the opposition can yell “objection!”

    One of the reasons that Chris is so enjoyable to listen to is that he’s calm, measured, and confident. With Chris it feels like I’m listening to someone who’s not trying to convince me he’s right, just sharing his thoughts.

Detroit Tigers sign Kyle Finnegan, Kenley Jansen. Can veteran bullpen upgrades hold up in 2026?
Q: Does Kenley Jansen have one more year of success in the tank or will father time catch up to him?
Success is possible for sure, but I don't think he's going to be dominant by any means.
Detroit Tigers sign Kyle Finnegan, Kenley Jansen. Can veteran bullpen upgrades hold up in 2026?
Q: Do you think the dominance that Kyle Finnegan displayed after the trade deadline will continue for the 2026 and 2027 seasons with the Tigers?
I don't expect him to just be that exact same guy and even if he is, the hitters will adjust at some point.
