I know right

 

[Vyle203]

If the White Sox can get Clint Frazier and maybe a couple other lower level prospects, I'd take it.

How bout Meadows? Bucs seem interested.

I saw the Pirate's interest today. They would certainly love Quintana's team friendly contract. He'd be their immediate #2 starter after Cole.

Welp, the Pirates just signed Nova to a 3 yr deal, so they might be all set.

Indians getting Encarnacion, 3 years.

alright. that sounds good to me. Try and get/develop one more big bullpen arm

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

Well, I guess there's no more parties at Napoli's. Hopefully the fiestas at Encarnacion's are as much fun!

That's a nice looking squad for sure. Encarnacion is a great pickup, and Brantley coming back is huge.

Not happy about either, but that means they just got better. We (Tigers) have to dig in and be that team that upsets the big guys (The Indians).

Aren't the Tigers looking to trade Kinsler and other bigger contracts this off season?

I think they changed their minds. I think it is better to trade them close to the deadline, if we are not in it.

Doug...I noticed that the 2017 NFL MVP, Matt Stafford, did not get selected for the Pro Bowl. Just saying. (Was that ANOTHER incorrect prediction by you?)

Speaking of predictions....which one of the Lions' final two games will they win? I know you predicted a Super Bowl appearance by Detroit....and it looks like they will have to win one more game to even get into the playoffs. So....do they beat Dallas or Green Bay?

Hell, they might as well. Verlander had a hell of a season last year. Would be odd to see him in a different uniform. He wears number 35 due to being a Frank Thomas fan growing up supposedly, which is pretty cool.

Tigers sign AVILA!! back up catcher. His daddy said he can really help the team

doug's a jinx, just look @ all his failed predictions for the Tigers in '16. If he actually picked the Lions to get to the S.B. they're screwed. And if they miss the playoffs it'll be doug's fault.

Alex Avila was a good handler of pitchers ... he should be a good asset to the team.
