We don't know anything at all about whether or not Harris is trying to sign Chafin.

Who is "Calico Joe" and why should we care what he has to say about the Matt Vierling versus Victor Reyes?

I'm kind of a history buff, and I love old interactions such as this between President Kennedy and President Eisenhower. I was shocked that Kennedy referred to him as General, unless Ike had told him to call him that before this call...

Sure did. I thought it first!! 😉

That undefeated team is insufferable.

remember kids, if minnesota wins this game, the lions owe them a 2024 5th round pick. if minnesota loses this game, the lions owe them a 2024 4th round pick. the lions have minny's 2024 3rd rounder and 2023 2nd rounder as a result of the trade. the viqueens have our 2023 4th rounder.

I am outraged that the Tigers signed Wingenter.

Has he posted his expected 2029 Tiger roster yet?

That is exactly what he did. Why someone with over a million dollars would do that for just $11,000 is beyond me. The -12500 are the payout odds on the moneyline. Using a more normal example of Cavs vs Pistons and the Cavs moneyline is say, -200. The negative means the Cavs are the favorite. And the -200 means you bet $1 to win 50 cents. A point spread bet also has odds, normally -110. So say the Cavs are -5 -110. If the Cavs win by 6 and you bet $1 you would win 91 cents. That is how books usually make their money. I bet a dollar on Detroit and lose the entire dollar. You bet a dollar on Cleveland and win 91 cents. The book makes 9 cents.

Harris/Hinch must know something about Cisnero we don’t, even though his more obvious data points seem to conclude non-tender. They felt it was more important to pay him 3x the minimum than non-tender him and risk him not coming back on a cheaper or minor league deal. They wanted to keep him here and were willing to pay him to do so. I’m guessing it’s his demonstrated ability to limit hard hit balls. Last year Cisnero was the only pitcher with more than 50 batted ball events to not yield a single barrel. His prior three years all showed this metric ranging from pink to pinkish-red. They must believe they can do something about his walk rate and are willing to risk a couple of large on him guaranteed to try to fix it.

After leaving office JFK restorer Ike’s army status. That’s the cliffs notes version. He did that to soothe the old man and butter him up. It was his preferred title and especially at that moment in time JFK needed Ike’a support to convince the country. He’d have called him Master Ike the Supreme if that would have worked.

Great interview with Mike Commodore, blasting Mike Babcock...

I've seen more sexiness in Super Bowl Half Time shows

Exactly. Without anything reported, the assumption is that Harris is doing nothing. He’s close to the vest and the Tigers will likely be absent from MLB Trade Rumors coverage, so I suspect he will not be given the benefit of the doubt until the team starts winning. I would expect the casual fan to be suspect, but surprised how much negativity he’s already come under here.

Yzerman is Canadian...so of course he's going to be polite and defer to Nik

It is wrong....Steve Yzerman is the 2nd greatest Red Wing of all time

I will never forgive him and Jarrod Washburn for costing us the playoffs in 2009.

The Kirksville Daily Express might need some new fact checkers.
