Jason Benetti replaces Shep
Jason Benetti replaces Shep
Freep reporting the Tigers have hired Jason Benetti as their new TV voice. A terrific (and totally unexpected) hire.

Leaving the Chicago White Sox to come here. A surprise indeed!
The Tigers must've coughed up a nice chunk of change. I'm impressed.

This story is receiving a TON of attention in the Chicago market as we speak. ABC7, WGN channel 9, CBS2 and NBC Sports Chicago are all reporting on it. One outlet described him as a "beloved" announcer.

Morgan Wallen is a piece of garbage.

I'm beyond shocked they got him. He is one of the best and now they have their work cut out for them getting a colour guy who can keep up.

The White Sox, as a franchise, is in freefall. They will have a hard time getting any one of quality to go there. More than likely a youngster looking for his first major league job. Cheap and easy. Jason is a gem, you will love him.

Shep has been filling in for Tom Jordan, on WJR.

Both have the same amount of enthusiasm in their voices. Perfect substitution.
Dropping knowledge on forum MAGAts.
Unapologetically intellectually superior.

I’ll have to tune in to hear how mediocre Shep is at talk radio. Never thought that much of him on WDFN.
Benetti is an interesting hire. Time will tell.

Re: Jason Benetti replaces Shep
I didn't see that one coming great hire by the Tigers getting Jason Benetti, I thought they go the cheap rout and hire from within.
Go Pistons, Let's Go Redwings.

Love Benetti! Easily one of the 2 or 3 best in baseball. He makes watching games enjoyable even when the game itself isn’t a good one.
Would love to see him teamed up with Cam Maybin.

According to this poll, the Tigers are replacing someone on the worst broadcasting team in baseball with someone on the sixth best.

Jason Benetti has been such a breath of fresh air in the White Sox booth, and the fanbase has to be thrilled that he and Steve Stone will be around for the long run with the franchise.

Re: Jason Benetti replaces Shep
Hearing Benetti on a call reminds me of Josh Lewin who I really enjoyed. Good hire.
They/them, non-binary and proud.
Remember that “2000 Mules” was concocted by a circus of elephants.
The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.
Audacity sucks.

Benetti is working the Utah - Washington football game on FOX as we speak.
