Tough game. Should have looked for more ways to expose their bigs. That said, when White plays like that they are a playoff team.

Jays mean business. They've always been willing to take those risks. Hope Harris has some of that in his plan.

Cody whatshisname with Tiger Territory said Det has met with Helsley's camp and there are multiple teams talking with him about starting. Cody also said he has heard Det does have interest in King.

When you are dealing with money discord amongst the wealthiest of people, greed/control/power typically trumps reason. I see a long stoppage. Hope I am wrong

PSA 10 Topps Jack Morris rookie card sold for $1,244. Only 52 lower than his career whip https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1ANsTPJb3G/

Michael Kay's thoughts on ridiculous long term contracts: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/14NxfNThNQa/ It is very rare when players sustain excellence. JV and Max are outlier performers. Maybe Detroit should offer Skubal 6/300 and go with the aav

I have it on good authority that Harris follows the advice on this forum. I will blame you when Skubal leaves for a comp draft pick that turns out to be Christian Stewart's lesser athletic cousin

Per Rosenthal Detroit is interested in Helsley as a SP.

Still want to see what Ivey can bring before they trade him. Jenkins might be able to provide what Schroder did last season. Sample size still too small. I don't see Trajan swinging for the fences. Would have to be for a player that fits the dawg mold

Was thinking, had Foley and Lange been non-tendered by another team, I could see Harris inquiring, viewing them as Fetter projects

Saw on mlb that Ranier was activated on Nov 6 and is expected to be in spring training. Couldn't find any more detail, but it seems the surgery and rehab have been successful to date

Wonder if Harris will give Gonsolin a flier? Seems like his type of signing

Good to hear. Brieske also signed for slightly lower than projected, 1.15 mil

Kendrick Perkins made a comment that Detroit is interested in Anthony Davis and now social media is jumping on it. Not a chance. The Mavs would ask for Ivey, Holland and 2 firsts, or something like that. Not a chance.

Unless Harris shifts his course, I see someone like Lorenzen back in the old English D. I hope I am wrong and that Harris is open to learning from his misCOBBstakes.

Tarik said on foul territory that the online stuff is not from his camp, and I highly doubt Harris or Greenberg have leaked anything. I think the online stuff is speculation.

Would you have traded Carp for Grayson Rodriguez? Ward is a FA after 2026. I can't believe Baltimore didn't get something better than just Ward.

Skubal was on foul territory again. They showed a clip of a guy asking him to sign a Yankees hat and Scoob declined. He told the guys he'll only sign Tigers stuff. He also said the crazy numbers we're seeing online aren't coming from his camp. They brought up trade stuff and it seemed to deflate his energy a bit. His last 2 online interviews seem to point more that he would like to stay in Detroit. I hope Harris doesn't have it in mind already that he won't be in Detroit longer term. Work toward something like 8/350. I fully get the risk. His competitiveness, talent and grit all fall into that cliche we hear about Detroit dna.

I agree. And would take back the Oglivie for Slaton trade.

Quite a buzz about Tucker ending up in Toronto. That actually seems like a good fit imho. Springer is 36. Probably means Bo would be out.

He was something like 15-3 at the all-star break that year. I remember it well. RIP. Had a few very good years.

Torres does not have 10/5 rights

Grayson Rodriguez for Taylor Ward? Not sure I get it. Rodriguez might need a transition year, but is under control for several years. Orioles Trade Grayson Rodriguez To Angels For Taylor Ward - MLB Trade Rumors https://share.google/nqo71ZXjYRARVCXkH

2nd of back to back and on the road, vs a team 8-2 in its last 10. Very nice win! And they'll have Ivey back soon. At this time 2 years ago they were in the midst of a 28 game losing streak.

Very small sample, but Jenkins might be able to provide what Schroder did last year
