IDK, free agent prices can be franchise killers. Signing Skubal would be great but a guy who pitches every 5 days, for 100 to 110 pitches? I would rather have a few shut down relief pitchers and a couple hitters who make contact. And to go along with a couple of #2 and #3 type pitchers. Harris doesn't seem the type to put all his eggs in one basket. But....we'll see.

They won't sign him and won't trade him. After he walks, we'll hear stories that the Tigers offered him a fair contract and he refused it.

Just my 2 cents worth but if the Tigers plan in spending 40 million dollars or so, I would rather it be on pitching.

True. There's always an old and maybe expensive Suarez.

There goes Stafford's chance at an MVP award. 2 picks today, one a pick 6 and a lost fumble. He's human after all.

I would rather take a risk with Zack or some rookie over giving a 32 year old 170 million dollars.

The Cowboys are really bad defensively. At least, last I heard, they were near the bottom of some very important stats. Maybe Gibbs will run for 200+ yards...😆 No, Goff will pass for 400 yards;

So his price would start at $30M per year? Again, hard pass.

It says the Tigers MUST sign these players....if they want to compete...lmao

Interesting article from this website I've never heard of. They want the Tigers to sign multiple expensive free agents; https://www.sportskeeda.com/baseball/news-3-free-agents-tigers-must-sign-2026-season-boost-playoff-chances-ft-alex-bregman

The article in freep said; "Bregman, a three-time All-Star who turns 32 in late March, opted out of the final two seasons of his three-year, $120 million contract with the Red Sox, making him a free agent for the second straight offseason." I'm no math genius but thats $40m per season. If that's correct, there's absolutely no way the Tigers sign him. And I wouldn't want them to, it's way too much, IMO.

$48 for the rest of the season Sunday Ticket. I went ahead and bought it, I decide what games to watch. And I refuse to watch the Vikings...lol

Agreed. And sometimes you get teams like the Brewers in 2025, all the young talent peaking at the same time. They had a very, very impressive season but there was no way they could compete with the Dodgers. So why bother having a huge payroll if LA is just going to spend twice as much to acquire all the available talent anyway? Just to satisfy a fickle fan base? No, baseball is a business and any properly run business makes as much money as possible. And payroll is pure overhead, the enemy of businesses.

Free Press article this morning talking about how Scott Boras insists Bregman would bring leadership to the Tigers. He's just dying for the Tigers to offer Bregman a contract so he can use that offer to shop him around. Take a hike Boras.

So it'll feel so much better beating the Bucks with him in the lineup. 😆

Whew.

Hopefully, the back to back doesn't affect the 4th.

The turnovers are outta control.

Must be. I like Johnny doing basketball play by play too. Its his best gig.

Jovic has a nose that has it's own zip code.

Johnny Kane and Gregory Kelser here.

Disappointed but not surprised. Beating Ohio isnt easy, I'm just glad we beat them the last few years. This was their first win against us since 2019.

I was really hoping Ragnow would surprise us and play against Dallas. I guess not, it appears he wont be joining us. Bummer....

What were the fans chanting near the end of the 3rd?

Do they mean business enough to extend Bichette? Or do they have a better plan for SS?
