Tigers select in minor league phase Junior Tilien IF NY Mets

Hicks being traded to TB

Gage Workman to Cubs

Liam Hicks to Marlins

FWIW, Arenado will waive NT clause for Dodgers, Padres, Angels, Phillies, Mets or Red Sox

I have no doubt Harris knows what he is doing. His moves have all been just fine to good to great. But can he build a consistent playoff team without taking some risk? At some point, I think you have to make a trade or a free agent signing that is not safe. He spoke about calculated risk when he was hired and he is into his 3rd year and has done almost nothing risky. The biggest risk he took was passing on Langford for Clark, and that may still work out fine.

Rangers keep Eovaldi 3/75 thru age 37

Cobb gets $15M with up to $2M more in incentives. alrighty then.

there's Skubal's floor; Fried hit free agency for his age 31 season Skubal (with more history of injuries) will hit free agency for his age 30 season

would you prefer the owners keep the money for themselves?

Rodriguez will be signed ($3m+) with 2025 pool money. Tigers have about 600K in 2024 money remaining.

Harris was always going to sign 2 SPs. Assuming this is the lesser signing.

instead of Verlander or Scherzer, they grab Cobb (37) to be the old and injured pitcher. yeeesh.

just hoping Harris gets Austin Hays and Buddy Biancalana at this point!

if Soto gets 765-805MM at 26, then Riley (if he stays healthy) is looking at 300M+ at 28

maybe other teams are scared away, maybe an opportunity, but some real risk here for a defense-first player "agent Scott Boras said a late-April return is possible, while Padres president of baseball operations A.J. Preller in October said Kim might not be ready until 'May, June, July.'”

I predict Adames to SFG 7/182M

Foley for Suzuki.

Tim Patrick, a big (6-5) WR, with few drops, a vet who is happy to play (after injuries) and play for a winner, who does not complain about catches or TDs, and who is a great blocker in the run game, is just a great addition/compliment to St Brown and Williams, and IMO an improvement over Reynolds. Would not be surprised to see him re-up for 2 years. Holmes is just a fantastic GM.

going for it on 4th down at the 30 was the right call - Goff audibled to the wrong play Campbell has instilled a mindset that the Lions are always the aggressor - that is a huge benefit to the team, and often puts their opponent in an uncomfortable position of trying to be what they are not Whoever compared this regular season to the 84 Tigers is spot on - we get to see another magical regular season run!

if that is the 10th move Harris makes this Winter, fine. But they are now more window dressing than impactful.

yes he was a project and yes he's had some injuries, but journeyman Peko, rookie Wingo, and street FA O'Connor are all ahead of him - not good so far.

interested to see if Broderick Martin can contribute anything with Reader and Levi and Pascal and Wingo out. If we see mostly O'Connor, that's a bad sign for Martin, a top 100 pick who hasn't done anything yet.

adding a Kim (either one) to the mix adds to the uncertainty as well
