    Jimenez Up, Sent Down, Sent Up, sent down, now on DL out a month

    What a crock of shit. Kid dominates in his first appearance, and gets sent back down so we have a long relief pitcher for the weekend.. instead of releasing Sanchez like everyone with half a brain knows should happen. The people in charge of this team are just complete morons.

    Tigers Will Cut Salary

    http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2016/10/al-avila-changes-are-coming-to-tigers.html It seems like the Tigers will be trading off most large contracts that hold value. Kinsler is most likely to go, along with Verlander. Upton's second half surge could bring his value up as well. Dont see anyone...

    New Tigers Pitchers/Off-season

    So far, two of our young acquisitions have made a start for the Detroit Tigers. Each of those starts resulted in wins. Norris pitched 7 1/3 of 1 run ball, and Boyd pitched 7 innings of 1 run ball. Michael Fulmer recently made his first start for AA Erie, and pitched 6 2/3 scoreless innings...

    Nathan still the closer?

    Apparently, Brad Ausmus is most likely going to give Nathan the job back when he returns, according to reports. That is bullshit. Soria has been lock down in his 4 opportunities. Fuck Ausmus.

    Valverde back again?

    I have a bad feeling. He asked SD for a release because another team was ready to guarantee a contract to him, and now it's being reported that the Tigers are close to acquiring a reliever. Hopefully it's not him, but it seems a little coincidental. I'd rather have Soriano or Oviedo.

    JV and the Pen

    JV has been awful the past few starts. Still having command issues.. not looking good at all. Joba has been brutal all spring, and Nathan had another shitty inning today. I have to say, our pitching in general is in huge trouble. On the other hand, JD looks like he's poised to continue his run...

    Fantasy Baseball ESPN

    I need 2 spots filled in a head-to-head points league. Very active owners preferred.

    Starters/Bullpen

    Alright, do we think this year's 'Pen is improved? I do, albeit slightly. Hanrahan, if healthy, could be a marked improvement over our 7th inning guys last year. Gorzelanny is a vast improvement over Coke. A healthy Soria for a full year should also be beneficial, as he's a much better reliever...

    Catcher

    Some folks here aren't most receptive of the idea of McCann being the RH platoon mate of Alex Avila. I wish there were better options. Austin Green has been mentioned. I didn't realize Grayson Greiner was already 23, but he looks like he could have some good hitting tools. He was a high draft...

    Don Kelly Signs

    With the Marlins on a minor league deal. Not upset, but I always liked Donnie.. DFK out.

    Offseason Deals and Rumors

    I guess it's time for this thread, unfortunately.. on October 5th. I guess this thread is just to post whatever news you read or hear about the Tigers this offseason.

    Game 127 game 1 August 23 No Game Thread

    Good. It's fitting.

    Hypothetically

    If we fall say.. 5-7 games back by the last week of August. Do we put Max through waivers and trade him? I would.. hell, I'd do it now. This team has an uphill battle with their injuries.

    JV Need A DL Stint

    This is exactly what is best for him and the team. Let him to on a 'rehab' assignment to figure out what the hell his problem is. It worked wonders for Max Scherzer a few years ago.

    Daniel Nava

    Tigers looking at claiming him when he hits waivers. Speculation that he would only face RHP.. probably replacing Zeke in the platoon with Davis.

    Rusney Castillo

    First reports connecting the Tigers to the Cuban star. "According to Jason Beck of MLB.com, the Tigers could make a serious run at signing Cuban outfielder Rusney Castillo. The Tigers have shown interest in Cuban outfielders before, most notably Yoenis Cespedes, and have a gaping hole in...

    Trade Deadline

    Apparently, Iglesias is being shopped. They like Suarez enough to trade Jose, and they may do it before the deadline. What other things are you guys hearing?

    Torii Hunter

    Tigers have played better without him, and JD Martinez is showing signs of becoming the big time talent he was once touted as. I don't think Davis is playing poorly enough to be benched completely, but Jackson might be. My question is.. does Torii regain his starting spot? Either him or Jackson...

    Jeff Keppinger

    Could be a solid shortstop option. He's played middle infield mostly in his career and has solid career numbers. Would be an upgrade.

    Lineup suggestions

    I think most of us disagree at least a little with the batting order. If Torii is going to display some of his old power, I'd say he would be better off in the 5 hole, with Jackson's gap and on-base capabilities better suited for the 2 spot. Here is my best scenario. Kinsler Jackson Cabrera...
