AOC voted down my resolution to release congressional sexual harassment records. I don't want to hear one more word from her about Epstein. She voted against the truth. She voted against survivors. She is a fraud.

This chaos is on you, Thune. Get your party in order and start acting like the leader you’re supposed to be. Enough excuses. End the filibuster and get things done.

Two weeks left in camp and one job on the line. It’s Parker Meadows vs Wenceel Pérez for a roster spot. If the Tigers carry 8 relievers, there’s only room for one. Meadows = elite CF defense. Pérez = versatility. Two week sprint… who wins? #Tigers 🐅⚾️

Hey Tigers fans… My bet is both Perez and Meadows get multiple ABs today. Time is running out. Who wins the last roster spot? Drop your pick in the comments. 🐅⚾

Parker, stop with the “I’m seeing the ball well.” If you were, the results would show it. The most important thing in hitting is separation — it must be completed at release or just after the pitch is released. That’s timing and pitch recognition in one move. If you’re fouling

Hey Tigers fans… I’m calling it now: Parker Meadows wins the last roster spot. Gold-glove defense in center and plus speed gives him value even if the bat is inconsistent. Spring training is about pitchers getting ready — not ERA. The only thing that matters is coming out

Wow!!! The World Baseball Classic is AWESOME. 🇺🇸🇩🇴 USA vs Dominican last night had World Series intensity — two proud baseball countries going at it. The emotion was real. Spring Training is probably the only logical time to play it, but that intensity + adrenaline worries me…

I’ve tried just about every hitting philosophy there is. Here’s the problem with the Teacherman approach pushed by Richard Schenck. Hitting starts with separation and timing. When the pitcher releases the ball, the hitter’s separation must already be happening or just completed.

Timing comes in waves. Every hitter knows this. You remember those days when you walked to the plate knowing you were going to barrel the baseball. You didn’t care about pitch type, velocity, or location — your timing was perfect. You were riding the wave at its crest. And you

My first interaction with the legend in his own mind, Teacherman. I’ve never followed him and honestly couldn’t care less about his hitting theories. But he trolled me and started the confrontation. The problem for him was simple—I dismantled every argument he made, and many

Hey Slotkin — represent Michigan, not the D.C. machine. Americans want the SAVE Act passed. Stop the political games and do your job.

Hey Tigers fans — barring any injuries, the roster will be set by Friday. When the car hauler hits the parking lot, that’s the sign
