I don't dislike Sanchez because he's a great player since he's not. I don't like him from the fight the Tigers had with the Yankees a few years ago. Quote

I kind of wonder if they might agree upon a one year deal and then Correa can revisit FA next offseason? If Correa goes back to the 'stos I'll wager it will be for less than he purportedly turned down from the Tigers - or else maybe it will be all deferred money out 20 yrs..... Along the same lines though, I'm beginning to wonder if the Tigers and Matt Boyd may not be done with each other either.... Edited March 14, 2022 by gehringer_2 Quote

chasfh Posted March 14, 2022 Posted March 14, 2022 I'm starting to wonder whether Correa signs for one year with the Astros as a way to reset the market for himself? Not saying I would agree with that or that it would work. Quote

I still don't understand the logic pre-lockout that the Rangers overpaying Seager made Correa getting in excess of 10/325 inevitable.... it may have just said more about the Rangers (and their playing fast and loose with payroll) than it did about the shortstop market or other teams' desires to match that. In order for Correa to get that kinda contract, there has to be another team out there willing to give him that.... maybe there still is, but as you suggest, there's a lot of signals that he may be back in Houston next year. 1 hour ago, gehringer_2 said: Along the same lines though, I'm beginning to wonder if the Tigers and Matt Boyd may not be done with each other either.... I wonder how much they know about Boyd's recovery from injury since non-tendering him or if there have been any discussions with him. With as thin as the starter market is getting, it may not be a terrible idea to bring him back if they feel Alexander can hold down the 5th starter slot and feel good about Boyd's trajectory. Quote

I wonder if the stupid Rangers offered the stupid contract to Correa first before Seager, at least informally, and he turned it down because "I get at least as much as Lindor". Quote

Tiger337 Posted March 15, 2022 Posted March 15, 2022 One thing about Avila is when he says he is going to do something he does it. His pre-lockout moves were exactly the ones he said he was planning to make. Something will happen in the next couple of days. Quote

All of the recent signings might help Erie or Toledo but probably won't do much for the Tigers. I'm still waiting for Norris to comeback on a minor league deal. His performance after leaving the Tigers last year won't help him get a ML deal. Quote

Agreed... it just seems that there are more teams than available pitchers at the moment which is complicating things. Quote
