Blind Allegiance & Bonehead Decisions

Sean Baligian comes in hot after another frustrating Tigers playoff performance. From Casey Mize getting yanked after just 62 pitches to A.J. Hinch’s baffling move to pinch-hit Jahmai Jones for Riley Greene, Sean calls out the “smartest man in the room” syndrome and the blind allegiance that too many Tigers fans still cling to. He breaks down why Detroit’s bullpen isn’t built to cover for those choices, what trading Tarik Skubal could mean for the team’s future, and why next season might look far leaner than fans want to admit.

Along the way, Sean debates with listeners about accountability, rails against “defense of the indefensible,” and even finds time for cider mill runs and Halloween in Haddonfield. With raw frustration, unfiltered honesty, and plenty of back-and-forth with the live chat, this is classic Off The Air—where passion meets blunt truth about Detroit sports.
