That is why the Tigers are in last place, and normally outsuck the Sox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should get another year to slim out that upper body muscle he added . You just can't non tender him after 3 decent years in a row then this year. Could he actually be non-tendered ? Doesn't he have enough years yet ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that would just about guarantee he goes to Dodgers or Angels and finishes Top 5 Cy Young as a Dodger like Tyler Anderson will...

Looks like will be a high scoring game tonight. Resend the memo to not let Baez beat us at the plate. He is the main homer threat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spin rates around the league are going up again. Guys are finding ways to use sticky stuff again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
