We were gone for a minute -- or two months, who's counting? -- but now we're back! The podcast formerly known as The Bless You Boys Podcast has returned with a vengeance, and just in time to weigh in on the most tumultuous week in Detroit Tigers baseball in recent memory.
Topics in this episode include:
- What happened to the podcast?
- Dave Dombrowski's unceremonious "release" on Tuesday
- Why wasn't the Ilitch family involved in Al Avila's introductory press conference?
- Why was Dombrowski allowed to manage the trade deadline instead of Avila?
- Will Avila be able to fill Dombrowski's shoes as general manager?
- The trade deadline, and how the new players fit in to the Tigers' system
- What's wrong with Justin Verlander?
- Listener questions!
- Do the Tigers have a chance in 2015?
We also want you to name our podcast, and we're bribing you to do so! The generous folks at Don Kelly T-Shirts are offering up some free swag -- both a t-shirt of your choice, as well as some Rod and Jim coozies -- to the person that comes up with the best name for our podcast, chosen by Hookslide and Rob. Don Kelly T-Shirts aren't just DKB all the time, though. They are also the masterminds behind awesome stuff like this, so be sure to check them out!
