Higgy had to have been juicing. As soon as they started to crack down, his output dropped. Also interesting that he has not appeared anywhere.
-
Both Mize and Flaherty are subject to a qualifying offers. If the Tigers are willing to extend them both (-$45M), they will likely accept them because the attached draft pick will likely make them less attractive in free agency. So, there is the potential to keeping most of the ‘26 rotation intact, with Valdez, Reese, Jobe and Melton. In short, we’re good.
-
Mize is a free agent, too. Could get a QO, which he would almost certainly accept, unless he has an insane season.
-
Could be a trade forthcoming. I still contend that Mize could be dealt. Very team friendly contract.
-
It won’t happen, but Flaherty would help a ton in the pen.
-
Will be interesting to see if they want Melton to start in Toledo, assuming he’d be the odd man out. Also wonder if Reese is healthy.
-
Hard to say, but a team trading for him would have wanted to avoid arbitration, so something could happen now.
-
Adding a SP might push a starter candidate to the pen, potentially strengthening that, too.
-
Anyone hoping that Skubal wins? Genuinely curious. All my life I’ve sided with the team over the players and wondering if anyone feels differently.
-
I’ll bet on one or more of the following 3B candidates emerging this season: Keith, Baez, McGonigle, Vierling. Jung, Lee and Anderson. I think we’ll be OK
-
If anyone cares
-
Someone is coming. Probably waiting to see how much Skubal will get in arbitration. Might also wait until they can put Jobe or someone else on the 60-day DL to open a 40-man spot without sacrificing anyone.
-
That was my understanding, too. Removes any potential bias.

FanGraphs is basically the Keith Law of projections

Soccer is for communists and those that can’t ice skate. Baseball is for ‘Mericans and winners. Hope this is now settled.
