Tigers Off-Season Moves

Pure depth “throw 1 chip on red and spin it” kind of signing.

All this Ranger/King etc smoke. I hope between that, the Gleyber QO, the mutual Finnegan Begin Again ( been waiting to use that one, Mary Tyler Moore fans) etc that this is

MISSION ALL CHIPS TO CENTER

I think this is an interesting question.

Would love to hear @frm710’s take on this, whenever he gets back.

In a heartbeat. Torres and him split time. But take care of 3rd and cf 1st

Why are we giving $7M to a AAA pitcher?

Did we learn absolutely nothing from last year?

Wait ive heard this before.

Oh thats right.

I heard it last winter

The winter before that

The winter before that

And what had that gotten them? NOTHING.

Same old Chris Illitch game plan.

Fill the gaps with cheap older players. Bring in the kids be good enough to keep interest. Do nothing in playoffs.

You’ve also heard it the last like 8 Red Wings offseasons. Anything in common between those two teams?

Except for the DeBrincat trade I guess, which has worked out well, surprising no one.

I knew it. Bye bye Skubal.

Are Riley and Tork going to be allowed to walk too when they get ready for a new contract? According to Harris, they’re not in their prime yet. If we aren’t planning to pay them, that means we’ll have spent almost 8 years developing each of them to get one or two “prime” seasons from them before we trade them away or let them walk.

What a terrible way to treat your fanbase. What a slap in the face to those that make your paychecks.

Same:

2 good development seasons. Making the playoffs. Getting close.

And what have they done?

Band aids. Aged cheap vets. With a sub average payroll. And virtually 0 payroll beyond 2026.

They might start off like last year, but it wont be as good though

Hope isnt a strategy.

Not hoping for

Baez & McKinstry and Dingler hitting over 800

Greene, Torres, Torq hitting over 1000 through the first 150 ABs like they did last season.

When their last 3 year average is 150-200 under that.

LA reporter … Dodgers closing in on Skubal? Phucking Dodgers!

I think a lot of Tiger fans, including myself fear this outcome as the most likely.

What I find hilarious are the responses to this on X. One Philly fan said that if this happens, the commissioner needs to step in. A fan of a team spending $280M bitching about a team spending $380M. That’s when you know Manfred’s monster is out of control.
