I had assumed the pusuit was already over since I didn't read anything about them getting invited to meet him.

I also don't care at all how much they pay them per year. If they can get someone for a low number of years and high annual value, that is great. I want Bregman and Flaherty because I think they will be good and help the Tigers win games, not because I care how much money Ilitch spends. If they can get them for shorter term and less risk, then that's better.

The Tigers run last year was beautiful and historic. It was also unprcedented and probably won't ever happen again. So, yes I want them to make acqusitions that can help them get back to the playoffs. Not just any acquistion though. Note that you were responding to a post where I was agreeing that they didn't need Verlander.

I still care less about Hunter Biden than I do about practically any frequent internet topic.

Yes, especially now when they have a legitimate chance to make the playoffs with a couple of acquisitions.

Flaherty for a short-term deal would be great. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2025/01/anthony-santander-jack-flaherty-reportedly-open-to-short-term-offers.html?utm_source=twitter

Yes, He was an unexpected choice. He basically replaces Torkelson offensively without improving their defense and perhaps making it worse. He's a good offensive player in his good years though. Hopefully, they get one of those years.

I doubt they have much interest in Santander. He's not a good fit.

I am sure he is considering that and would want to bring in someone who he thought worked well with young players. He also surely realizes that team chemistry is not always sustainable from year to year if you don't have enough talent. Hinch actually suggested that in the inerview with him and Harris early in the off-season.

I liked Harold Baines and wish he didn't become an example of a weak HoF, but he just was not a Hall of Fame talent. He had an OPS+ of 100 or more 19 years in a row, which is impressive consistency and longevity, but a 121 career OPS+ is not nearly enough for an average corner outfielder. Maybe, if he was a gold glove second baseman...

I don't think there is any evidence that playing for the Yankees helps somone get into the Hall of Fame. Every team has some questionable players in the HoF including the Tigers - Morris and Kell. I don't think Lemon belongs, but I do agree he is underrated. He is another one like Whitaker who never had a stand out season.

If Trump wasn't born into wealth, he would have spent his life going in and out of prisons and mental health treatment. He has lived the most charmed life of anybody ever.

Sabathia belongs. Whitaker belongs too. Being private does not help, but I think the main reason Whitaker is not in the Hall of Fame is because he never had an elite season which is what people remember. I don't believe there is any other player with 75 WAR who never had huge MVP or near MVP season. What he did have was more very good years than almost any middle infielder ever. His consistency and durability was truely remarkable and Hall of Fame worthy.

I think they should go after Trump more. The whole country is way too soft on him.

The guy is so moronic, I long assumed he was a parody.

She seems super conservative, but reasonably honest. Trump misjudged the honest part.

I think it was a mutual snub, but this video fascinates me.

should of raked the leaves!

They made sure of that.

Some other Presidents (maybe all of them) have divided us to some extent, but Trump is the only one who actively tries to do it every day. He revels in it.

I hope not because that would make us a ****ty country.

DEI are the three favorite letters of the right. It's all they ever talk about now.
