Did they ever use an opener in Skubal or Flaherty starts? I think they started that after he was traded but I doubt they would do that with those two.

Ilitch never spends money. It's going to be cool for all those guys when Flaherty gets his ring.

I think if Flaherty pitches well and opts out they could give him a qualifying offer.

I think my fan bias is showing because I think this is a great deal but Kim's deal wasn't.

They get him for another year and if he does prove to be healthy, they could extend him.

Wow HUGE steal!

Sadly, it's time for us as a society to recognize there are a lot of violent predators out there who are very happy to go along with whatever Trump does. They won't change once he is out of office. They will just go back to hiding it.

Deport the Oompa-Loompa and his Nazi wannabes to Russia.

Is this a cruel joke on all of us?

Especially since he's not even arbitration eligible yet. Giving up four years of control of Faedo for one year of Maeda. Could come back to bite them when someone picks him up.

Harris on Faedo: “I told Alex this is a really difficult move for us to make,” president of baseball operations Scott Harris said. “Alex is a really popular teammate in the clubhouse. He’s gotten some really big outs for us. It’s a move we really didn’t want to make, but our 40-man [roster] is getting more talented these days and anytime you add a new player to the roster, it generally means that it costs you a valuable contributor on the back end. “Again, I think Alex has been a really talented pitcher and has gotten some big outs for us, but I think his out-of-options status made it a little bit more difficult of a fit on our roster here.” https://www.mlb.com/tigers/news/tigers-injuries-and-roster-moves

What does he even want? The whole world to be narcissist misogynist bigots or else?

I would never want to get on Bert's bad side. Things are getting heated!

When will society understand the danger to us all are these men who have been abused and their minds are warped by violence and they become predators who victimize everyone they can? Nope. Let's deport pregnant women. I believe free mental health care would help prevent so many of our problems with drugs and violence and would save so much money overall.

I think he sees a good right handed bat and a potential qualifying offer to get a draft pick.

Trump's head on Mount Rushmore sounds good to me. How's tomorrow work for everyone?

The orange racoon is not only the worst president in history but also the worst wannabe dictator in history.

Flaherty has a bad back. We just went through that with Mize. Get back and elbow/shoulder surgery, miss two years then come back mediocre and maybe get two good years out of five? No thanks.

If you take their worst stat and completely ignore their pitching, defense and baserunning, things do look bleak. Their wRC+ wasn't great but was better than their OBP.

At least Trump only spews unsubstantiated nonsense. Every. Single. Time.

The 40 man roster looks pretty good to me. Almost everyone has ML experience. The keys will be healthy outfield and healthy rotation. Hinch will be able to manage the defense and the bullpen to perform their best. Nobody in the Central has done much.

Someone needs to get Harris on the phone immediately.

Trump loves to name everything after himself. Change it to Trump's Diaper.

Faedo. I didn't realize he's 29 already. Faedo zero options, Englert still has two.
