Hill > Cameron > Reyes and Haase is our modern day Wockenfuss. Which means he’ll be dealt for the closer on our next WS champs.

If Victor Reyes makes the team over Hill or Cameron, I’ll move to Canada.

I'm not sure that Correa is conceivable anymore, but that fact that we have Schoop should not be a reason to avoid signing him, while moving Baez to 2B. With the crazy contracts being thrown around for middle infielders, Jonathan at $7.5M is a bargain for any team that misses out. And we don't have any 2B coming up, so it still is a position of need longer term.

who knows if this is true, but nice to see that the Tigers made a concerted effort. If Correa expects to get paid comparably to Lindor, then it wasn't in the ballpark, but was probably a fair offer on it's own merit. Lindor benefitted from 1) crazy, rich owner and 2) got ahead of the free agency 5

Yes, but where do you stand on Cavan Biggio or Keston Hiura?

can't wait to hear Dan Dickerson say "Elvis has left the bullpen"

Would they play some AAA games at the CoPa, or would that be some sort of violation?

Kaat had a better career ERA, more wins and a higher WAR than Morris. Unless the argument is that Morris doesn’t belong, which I can get behind.

I typically view Tanking as not trying to lose, but also not investing/committing to win.

agree with your concerns, and think we should just pass on Rodon. Plus, he's likely going to the Dodgers or Yankees, or another team with no regard for the luxury tax, or any other similar implications that will be placed on teams coming out of this CBA. I'm good with another reclamation project to complete with Tyler Alexander and Joey Wentz. Or go and get Verlander if he truly didn't sign his contract.

Fowler, Hodges, Kat, Minoan, O’Neil & Oliva Dick Allen missed by one vote

Has this been resolved yet? I have stock in MLBTradeRumors.

Tigers sent out an e-mail, as well. Shit is real, yo.

Perhaps, but this might be his best and only window to show what he can do at the ML level. Once Tork comes up, I think the starting infield will be Tork, Schoop, Baez and Candy. Not a lot of AB’s will be available in the infield.

Paredes is still younger than both Tork and Clemens. Maybe that’s not super important, but at 22, I suspect they aren’t ready to give up on him. His low K, high BB % make him a bit of a rarity.

I think Paredes is playing 2B, if Tork doesn’t make the team out of ST.

I don’t like his attitude

unfortunately, Willi Castro got the shitty one all last season.

I have no problem if Baez opts out. 2 yrs/$47M in his prime? Yes, please. However, I doubt he’ll do it.

Nico Goodrum will be out there.

they could non-tender Reyes. And I'd be OK with that. There are five guys ahead of him going into next season, though he would be a nice safety net at Toledo.

Wonder who in the org called Zach Short? Must have been a difficult call.

For the record, I broke this news before MLB Trade Rumors. That’s how dedicated I am to all of you.

because 7 8 9?
