Cobb is throwing; Madden isn't. Madden is by far the furthest away from returning; he's the next 60-Day guy. None of the others are guaranteed to be out til May 26.

Probably Madden

Rough estimate of Tigers CBT calculations if you assume the roster I'm assuming and it being fixed/static all year long (It's not, but it's a starting point). The split contract guys will vary based on how often they are in the Majors, players will earn bonuses, etc. Player CBT Total Jack Flaherty $27,500,000.00 Javier Baez $23,333,333.33 Gleyber Torres $15,000,000.00 Alex Cobb $15,000,000.00 Kenta Maeda $12,000,000.00 Tarik Skubal $10,150,000.00 Tommy Kahnle $7,750,000.00 Colt Keith $4,773,750.00 Jason Foley $3,150,000.00 Matt Vierling $3,005,000.00 John Brebbia $2,750,000.00 Jake Rogers $2,640,000.00 Casey Mize $2,340,000.00 Zach McKinstry $1,650,000.00 Andy Ibanez $1,400,000.00 Will Vest $1,400,000.00 Beau Brieske $1,300,000.00 Jose Urquidy $1,000,000.00 Riley Greene $800,000.00 Kerry Carpenter $800,000.00 Tyler Holton $800,000.00 Akil Baddoo $775,000.00 Parker Meadows $770,000.00 Reese Olson $770,000.00 Alex Lange $770,000.00 Justyn-Henry Malloy $770,000.00 Wenceel Perez $770,000.00 Spencer Torkelson $770,000.00 Dillon Dingler $760,000.00 Sawyer Gipson-Long $760,000.00 Ty Madden $760,000.00 Brenan Hanifee $760,000.00 Jackson Jobe $760,000.00 Trey Sweeney $760,000.00 Bailey Horn $223,900.00 Keider Montero $201,770.00 Matt Manning $197,177.00 Ryan Kreidler $147,177.00 Brant Hurter $123,900.00 Sean Guenther $123,900.00 Jace Jung $123,900.00 Chase Lee $62,000.00 Tyler Mattison $62,000.00 Tyler Owens $62,000.00 Andrew Chafin $0.00 Tomas Nido $0.00 Jordan Balasovic $0.00 Dietrich Enns $0.00 Wilmer Flores $0.00 Ricky Vanasco $0.00 Brian Serven $0.00 Jahmai Jones $0.00 Bligh Madris $0.00 Matt Gage $0.00 Ryan Miller $0.00 Brendan White $0.00 Eddys Leonard $0.00 Alex Faedo -$100,000.00 Eduardo Rodriguez -$933,333.33 Pre-Arb Bonus Pool $1,666,666.67 Player Benefits $17,540,000.00 CBT Payroll $167,998,140.67 CBT Threshold $241,000,000.00 CBT Room $73,001,859.33

This is the snippet in the CBA that applies to Chafin. Tomorrow is the Fourth Day Prior. He would have requested his release yesterday.

Should have a resolution on Chafin by tomorrow, per the CBA.

Our alumni group had a woman speak several years ago who was one of the people sent to that remote mountain in Hawaii for a year to simulate the psychological toll this will take on people. At the time it sounded like we are a ways away from just that piece of the puzzle.

I thought Severance stuck the landing for this season pretty well.

Listening to Avila now. Interesting discussion on transitioning the front office toward the analytic age.

Haven't listened yet, but Tony Paul dropped a 1+ hr podcast interview with Al Avila that appeared to be pretty revealing.

Zach Swanson to the full season IL, which means he is out for the year. I hadn't seen an injury reported yet.

In fairness to Shep, if you parse his tweet. I believe him when he says Gibby prepares better than anybody he's worked with... when you realize they saddled him with Morris and Monroe, that is undoubtedly true.

Remotely...
