At this point, the results don’t matter. Manning had the best outing of his career. The offense sucks and Soto imploded in a non save situation. But they have to use him because the bullpen is overtaxed.
Good bullpens are a waste on a horrific team. Avila thinks he can get more value for them at a later point in time.

Miguel Cabrera just told me, directly, that he has no intention of retiring after this year. His plan, he said, is to finish out his contract and retire after 2023.

The Tigers could do a lot worse than a bunch of high floor utility guys. Look at this season, we have no space-fillers for guys who are having historically bad offensive seasons.
Soto, Chafin, and Jimenez do wonders for a team that is this bad offensively and defensively. It's almost like they have less value on a horrendous team.
