I almost became a Cardinals fan at the beginning and Lou Brock was my first favorite player. Horton was my first favorite Tiger.

I am seeing reports on Twitter that both Willie Horton and Willie Hernandez died today. Very sad day. Edit: Horton did not die. Major screwup by Henning for which he has apologized.

nah, I'm done.

It's funny that he actually thought he had a chance with Cassidy Hutchinson.

which is why I don't care. He is 31 and hurt all the time.

I have no opinion on the Turnbull situation at all. How about that?

So, if Correa went nuts and demanded a billion dollar minimum, only offers that were a billion dollars or more would be serious offers?

Apparently, the Tigers viewed him as more than a desperation choice:

I also didn't think there was anything wrong with it in theory. It's just that everything Trump does is on the fly and I don't trust any Trump agreement to be anything more than something that benefits himself personally in terms of money or popularity. I also assume that anything good that comes out of anything involving him was because of something that someone else did. I think the main result of the meeting was Kim coming out of it feeling more relevant on the world stage which is not a good thing. But maybe pfife can tell us what they got out of the summit!

I've also read about the prison camps where his opponents and their families are starved and tortured. I don't know if that's still going on but it sounded absolutely brutal.

He's still kissing his ass. He said he was smart because he shows his country who the boss is.

That's pretty much what Stan said about Trump talking to Kim. 😃

It is interesting that Scott Harris was with the Giants at the time but I am not sure what his role was.

The aav was competitive and the contract length was competitive.

330 million suggests a desire for a lifetime deal. Five years is a lot different from 10 years. I am assuming he wasn't expecting 66 million per year.

I think Echoes just showed that it was a competitive offer.

The Tigers didn't offer 8 million. They offered 290 million. That sounds serious to me. It turned out he wasn't worth 330 million. So, maybe Avila was the smart one.

He never got that 330 million offer, did he? The Tigers probably made that offer hoping that he would settle for the highest bid. I really don't think they made a 290 million offer just for the fun of it. I know people hate Avila, but why would he do that if he wasn't serious? Avila was always transparent to a fault It was a serious offer.

I agree with a lot of what says. I just am not alweays optimistic that what he says will actually happen!

295 million sounds like a pretty serious offer to me! It was better than the one-yeat deal he ended up with. Just because Correa didn't like the offer doesn't mean the Tigers were not serious in attempting to sign him. Unless the Tigers sign Yamamoto, we will never know if they made a serious offer because it will probably not be leaked under Harris (which is probably a good thing).

Yes, I think he belongs. He was like Miguel Cabrera with a shorter career. Of course, I also wish Cabrera's career was shorter.

The thing is he has always looked terrible at the plate, but he use to make up for it with power. He had the lowest k rate of his career this year. What was missing was power.

Baez has always been a strange unpredictable player. I am not expecting it, but I would not rule out a comeback. Even if he just gets back to the player he was in 2022 (offense and fielding), he'd be useful.

I thought the vertigo is what first prevented him from playing and that perhaps contributed to his anxiety. Does he no longer have vertigo?

MAGAs would probably like that ad. Of course none of them would say that word and each one has a black friend who supports Trump, but "if Blacks can say ******, why can't we?"
