DEEPER DISCUSSIONS.
Totally Tigers

Last week, when asked about all of the players on the IL, Manager A. J. Hinch said “… we can’t dwell on it because it’s not changing. The lineup we have is the group we’re going with now.”
How do you interpret his statement?
Is it about a lack of available talent, prospect readiness or preparing for a lockout?

How do you interpret A. J. Hinch's comment?

1. We don't have any other players who would be better.

2. We're not going to risk bringing up prospects we don't feel are ready yet.

3. We want our prospects to stay in the farm system so they can play next year as we are already planning for a lockout.
