    I'd be more surprised if Julian made the team, honestly.
  2. holygoat
    I seem to remember some discussion about whether the Tigers had cause to cancel E-Rod's contract at the time.
  3. holygoat
    I'm not even sure how this incentivizes bringing up top prospects when they're ready when it clearly incentivizes holding high prospects back from being brought up mid-season.
  4. holygoat
    I wouldn't offer E-Rod s**t.
  5. holygoat
    Not if you meet or exceed those higher expectations.
  6. holygoat
    Yeah, I'm not down with the "Harris had to get something for E-Rod" argument. Well, no, not if what's being offered is Dawal Lugo 2.0, and after E-Rod pulled his stunt other GMs would likely reassess his value to their team and adjust their offers accordingly. I didn't like that Avila gave good players away for garbage, and I'm not going to criticize Harris for not doing the same.
  7. holygoat
    Same, which is why I wouldn't offer him an extension. If he stays we have a solid lefty starter for four more years, and if he opts out we have money to play with.
  8. holygoat
    Not only that, but it's entirely possible that Harris did have a Plan B, and that team was either spooked by E-Rod pulling out of the Dodgers trade at the last minute or knew they had more leverage and changed their offers hoping Harris would feel pressured to "at least get something", ala Avila.
  9. holygoat
    Do you think it's more likely that Harris didn't trade E-Rod for "anything" based on what helps the Tigers most, or because he was afraid of what other teams might think of him?
  10. holygoat
    So you're positive that the story that Harris had the understanding that E-Rod would accept a trade to LA, then changed his mind when DET and LA agreed on a deal is a false? You're sure of this?
  11. holygoat
    Everyone seems to be assuming that E-Rod hasn't already told Harris that he doesn't intend to exercise his opt-out clause. I'm not assuming that he has done that, just putting the possibility out there. None of us know anything.

    This self-righteous dinosaur is and always has been embarrassing.
  13. holygoat
    That's a lot of pitchers, which I have zero interest in.

    Why is Skubal still in this game?
  15. holygoat
    He's safe af
  16. holygoat
    Skubal brain fart.

    It pissed me off. I know the "race" is over for the Tigers, but they were in it long enough for me to remain invested in the remaining games.
  19. holygoat
    Haase sucks. What's wrong with Miggy?
  20. holygoat
    Lange is awful tonight.
  21. holygoat
    Give him the chair?
  22. holygoat
    If they win it all with this team, that will make them memorable. I want a Tigers WS title to happen any way they can pull it off.
  23. holygoat
    Whatever, go take 3 or 4 from KC.
  24. holygoat
    That's what I took from it -- that he had the presence of mind to barehand it.
  25. holygoat
    A.I. is fun.
