Distinct possibility that Tork might need to play at Toledo next season.

I’d consider Hosmer as insurance and platoon options for Tork and Miggy, both of whom have major question marks.

F Michigan. Go Lions!

Which free agents do you think we missed out on? Based on the contracts they received, I would not have wanted any of them, except for Haniger.

I would rather have had Haniger.

Twins, trying to lose, sign Chris Davis to 1-yr, $11M contract on the heels of hitting .160 last season. Sorry, meant Joey Gallo. Nice recovery on losing out on Carlos Correa.

If he could give you 10-15 dingers and a .350 OBP, you’d be happy with that. Doesn’t seem completely out of reach.

Not excited about facing Wilson—he’ll have a chip on his shoulder and look to get the team, and his job, back. Unless he’s a total moron.

FYI

I actually have more faith in him than I do Kreidler, at least offensively.

It’s like the old adage, “you can never have enough shortstops.”

ERod to…? Lot of suitors need to pivot now.

I think they call it, "Coolbaugh'd"

hard to make of what happened to him once he hit AAA--quite the fall-off. You usually don't see that pronounced of a drop from AA.

for a group of avid football fans (you're posting in a Lions message board, for chrissakes), you don't have a lot of confidence in your ability to assess talent. If you did, you would see that Bryce Young is the only guy you would draft from this class with the Rams pick. And he probably won't be there. None of the others are worthy at that pick. Perhaps with the Lions own pick, if Levis or Richardson drop. In this draft, it's Bryce or bust. Otherwise, take the best defense players available, live with Goff for another year, or find a different way to get an established, proven QB.

Really going out on a limb, eh?

Any references to Goff’s 2021 season is foolish. Banged up O-line and RB and no wide receivers, except for the Sun God. He gets a mulligan from me.

Who cares about any comparison between Stafford and Goff? The question is should the Lions burn a 1st rounder at a position that doesn’t appear to be in need of an upgrade (vs using if to improve our defense). Also, if anyone saw the game between OSU and Harbaugh’s babies, you would not use a top-10 pick on Stroud. I’m happy to ride 2023 with our current offense and use our 1st and 2nd rounders to upgrade the D.

Have you seen the kids mullet?

Jonathan Mayo was just on MLBTV and mocked Max Clark to us.

All things equal, would be nice to get one of the OF’ers. We are completely devoid there, outside of Greene.

He gets the Harold Castro innings

Once Rodon signs, I think we move ERod to one of the bridesmaids. He has a team friendly contract. Even if he opted out, he’s a huge bargain for a good team at $14M for next season. Probably our best trade chip.

San Francisco played .500 ball and are way behind SD and LA. They also lost out on other free agents this offseason. Correa followed the money. And if a better offer came from Detroit, he’d have signed with us. Thank God we “missed out.” SF made a horrible deal that they will likely start to regret in 7-8 years, if not sooner.
