Seems like other teams don't want the prospects we don't want.

A good starter isn't blocking anyone. As we learned at the deadline, a mediocre starter is potentially limiting quality innings from our AAA depth.

Trump divides the country, makes people angry and then Maga morons say look at all the angry people! Ignorant racists should crawl back under their rocks where they belong. Deport Maga to Russia would be even better.

Projection means Maga minions are doing all kinds of crime.

Have you seen the Hitler youth coming up through the ranks? Maybe that's why the old guard won't step down. /s

I would offer Skubal an opt out after 2028. They keep the core team together and he gets to compete with his teammates, protection from injury and a chance at testing the free agent market.

Sounds like Tigers offered $170 last year which would include two arbitration years and it's being compared to a free agent contract. Skubal hasn't reached free agency yet so why would the Tigers offer what Boras wants? Could this mean Skubal is receptive to an offer if Boras is already leaking information to the media? Why throw numbers around now? Only the Tigers can negotiate.

Boras propaganda off to a great start. I can't read the article but it says something about $170 million earlier this year or last year.

They are exceptionally good at accusing people and very bad at providing evidence.

"RHP Reese Olson Injury: Right shoulder strain IL date: July 28 (60-day IL) Expected return: 2026 Status: Working on throwing progression, but not yet throwing bullpen sessions and not close to competition. (Updated Oct. 14)" Hopefully he will be fine. No surgery but he's not fully recovered yet.

If you mentioned Drizzt Do'Urden then I would know what you are talking about.

Akil Baddoo is a free agent.

I am a nerd with zero Doctor Who knowledge.

Dude is just good at everything.

Are we out of it or are 0.2% out of it?

Why is Argentina so expensive? Musk bought an election for $277 million.

A healthy Vierling probably makes A.I. obsolete. I agree Jones deserves a spot.

He can play defense though. Malloy and Jones cannot. Malloy still has options and can be stashed at Toledo.

Bregman opting out. Let the bidding begin again. I say no thank you.

Harris has 40 roster spots to work with. They have been getting 6 wins from the first spot for two years and probably (possibly, hopefully) will again next year. After that, Harris needs to add 6+ wins somehow between 1-40. It's possible.

I saw them.

The real trick would be unlocking the next Skubal. I think the rotation is the biggest concern going forward. I don't think it's smart to invest so much in one player. I wouldn't give him a contract. I don't think we would get three starting players for him. More likely a bench player, a reliever and a lottery ticket. I wouldn't trade him. We still get the lottery ticket. Based on Harris' history I think he would invest in two or three starters instead of going all in on Skubal.

At some point in the interview, Harris was talking about the experience gained and how you can't simulate the experience of the roaring crowd in game five of the ALDS. In that sense, it was a step forward because they gained something as a team they can use next year. It's not a step forward for us fans but it is for the organization.
