I really hope that’s a typo for now. We’ll call him that when he spurns us for another team next year.
-
I’ve seen him around downtown Birmingham on occasion (usually the Sunday Farmer’s Market). Dude has polos and T-shirts in his repertoire, too, but he’s no slave to fashion like DD was.
-
Not what I said. I just don’t know how you can give Harris the credit for the Tigers hot streak, post ‘24 trade deadline. That was literally the best piece of managing, along with a lot of luck, I think I’ve ever seen since Morris Buttermaker in ‘76.
-
He is Kerry Bonds, after all
-
I would argue the Tigers achieved that in spite of Harris. He literally surrendered the rest of the season by selling. (Which I agreed with at the time). Let’s not turn that into something heroic.
-
What if I told you that we could add Ranger Suarez, Freddie Peralta and Jonah Tong to the rotation to replace Skubal?
-
If we offer the best option, he’ll come.
-
Dirks and Dickerson are the best combination. Dirks and Benetti might be the worst.
-
$35M a season?
-
There are many quality free agents still unsigned. And trades can happen at any time. Let’s see how the rest of the offseason plays out (which will stretch into spring training).
-
Harbaugh is going to the Dolphins.
-
Dan Campbell isn’t hiring any grown man that wears joggers.
-
Colossal choke by Green Bay.
-
As is always the case, we don’t agree on your assessment. He’s not a back half of the rotation starter (‘25 All Star). He’d yield more than a Max Anderson-type, especially for a team trying to manage their budget.
-
Don’t forget Granderson’s 20/20/20/20. Crazy thing was that Jimmie Rollins accomplished it, too.
-
I am mostly. The only way they would deal him in the season if the team falls off the rails.
-
Not sure that’s true, Had a good season and only making $6M. A cash strapped team like the Padres should be interested. The Mets would likely surrender Vientos for him. A cost-effective way to get 160-170 quality innings.
-
Agree. Would prefer Valdez or Suarez, of course, but Bassit or Giolito would make the team better.
-
Don’t use McGonigle as a comp. Complete fluke that the Tigers got him and that he ended up as good as he is. Think typical 2nd rounder as what we’d likely yield.
-
He’d make a great reliever. Seemed to struggle after the first time through the lineup.
-
I don’t see the Tigers paying Mize $22M for even one season. They only let him go 3 innings in the playoffs—confidence doesn’t appear to be high. Once the free agent starters finally sign, I think Mize’s market will materialize. The Mets and Padres are viable options.
-
Yes, but they couldn’t hide him in the 40 man roster this offseason.
-
Worked out pretty well the last time we sold at the deadline. #pitchingchaos
-
I still think Mize will be dealt this offseason.
