It isn't that VMart doesn't have something left for this year. He may tear it up - but his groin, hamstrings, and other aging body parts are still there. And they will be there for 3 more years at $18mil a year. Everybody say..."Thanks Dave!"

The benefits of finishing Top 3 in the MVP voting at age 35. Ilitch agreed to Dave's deal, and pretty much stated that it was partly a "reward" for Victor's stand-out season. I don't think any other owner would have agreed to a 4-year deal, but V-mart WAS in demand that hot stove season.

Maybin out 4-6 weeks with wrist injury.

BTW....there is a SportsHoopla poster who is willing to take bets on whether players go on the DL or not this season. Check the AL Central Forum and ask for Vice.

I believe the odds on VMart hitting the DL are currently 2-5. Iglesias is going off at 1-9. (oops....Sorry - bets are not being taken on Iglesias any longer.....it being a sure thing and all)

Maybin injury no big deal. Gose is fine vs right handed pitching. There isn't a ton of lefty match ups they will see in the first month. Have Bernard come to camp to play vs lefties for the first month. No biggie.

Maybin injury is no big deal? AND...you seemed more concerned for Dyson's injury for the Royals. Are you sure you are a Tiger fan and not just a troll? Maybe you need a Royal's picture under your avatar. Seriously, you do spend more time discussing KC than Detroit...and for awhile, you were giving the Indians a lot of SportsHoopla time. Trolling on this thread?

Injury no big deal....what planet do u live on?
Not sure which one you live on... But if you think a 4-6 week injury to cameron maybin is really going to effect the Tigers standings to start the season.. you are a god damn idiot. He wasn't even going to be the full time CFer... More than likely Gose was getting the majority of the at bats. Gose had a .265/.330/.383/.713 line vs right handed pitchers... how many left handed starters are the Tigers going to see in the first 6 weeks? 4? 5? Seriously... You are a buffoon.

How many games do you really think that Cameron Maybin was going to win for the Tigers late in the game getting a big hit off a lefty? I am just trying to figure out how Gose is some huge down grade from Maybin in CF? Maybin doesn't hit lefties that great himself... Seriously Burf... You are concerned about a platoon player getting hurt that was probably going to hit 9th? LOL

Don't worry....Vice is a known entity now. He got his ass handed to him a few days ago on the AL Central Talk thread. Don't take him seriously...no one else does anymore.

We should trade for Dexter Fowler.

Broken wrist to start the season is a bad sign for a guy who has been perpetually hurt during his career.

Collins and Moya do now have a shot to make the team out of spring training.

Also heard a guy who's kinda connected to the Tigers say today that Greene may beat out Norris for the #5 spot.

We give the Cubs a player or players, they give us Fowler. (He signed that cheap one year deal last week.)

Unless they plan on using Schwarber behind the plate (not in left, where he is awful.)with Montero and Ross both on the bench, they have a surplus of outfielders. (Baez is working in center also.)

Odds are in your favor for sure.
I don't think the cubs can trade him right now anyways. I think there is a time period after signing before he can be traded... I might be wrong... But I don't even think it's possible.
