His value right now is about as low as it's been. Like I said, he's still young. He may turn into a serviceable 1st baseman or DH. And he is better than a few players we have on the ML roster right now. But we may need more production out of our 1st baseman. Hopefully, he makes some adjustments in Toledo and comes back raking.

On the flip side, there could be an audacious move that Harris makes that could really shake up the organization and continue scrubbing away the remains of Al Avila’s thumbprints on it. Quote
1984Echoes Posted June 25, 2024 Posted June 25, 2024 (edited) Greene and Keith and possibly Skubal look like they'll be here for the long haul. Carpenter (and Olson, I forgot Olson) too. Those are some pretty big Avila thumbprints. Without even getting to Faedo, Brieske, Meadows, Jobe, Dingler, others... which we don't know about yet... Edited June 25, 2024 by 1984Echoes Quote
tiger2022 Posted June 25, 2024 Posted June 25, 2024 I am not sure about Greene. He might want to go to a team that throws money at him or a team that has a chance to win. Keith...who knows if he'll even be around because of not producing Quote

If Skubal stays healthy, the Tigers won't sign him for the money/years he deserves. Greene may be a keeper, staying healthy and playing the entire season was his goal. I could see the Tigers signing him long term. Many fans wanted to give Harris a pass while he sees what he had to work within the organization. This off-season may tell us a lot. I'm still not convinced that Chris will spend the necessary money to field a competitive team. He may look at teams like Tampa Bay, KC and the Twins that seem to rebuild and win with young players. But we're really wasting some good pitching. Quote
