    Also would he even be our "closer" like Nightengale suggested. Thinking he'd be at best our 3rd best RP going into next year

    I could see him being the closer in the same way Foley was last year. Foley wasn't our best reliever, but he got most of the save chances.

    Didn't we re-sign Foley too? That report never made any sense

    pizza boy probably leaked it to make it seem like they’re trying to do something, in attempt to not spend any money at all.

    Great work cheap ass owners.

    Starting to think some of the FA we never intend on signing, just want our names in the mix so ownership can claim they "tried to spend money".

    They can give us Paredes for free, or we can sign and trade Bregman for Paredes.

    Not giving an extra OF up for him.

    Again, why not both? We could sign both and still have a bottom half payroll

    Flaherty has bust written all over him. He’s fine on 2 year deal, but that should be it

    Trade Flaherty again at the deadline after he has a great first half for us and get some more prospects. Have him decline the player option and sign him again next offseason. Rinse and repeat.

    I would have to guess Jobe probably starts in AAA now.. Let him get 5-6 starts down there and then call him up in middle of May.

    Bregman was at DTW this morning with Kelle Ilitch. Would expect deal wrapped up shortly here.

    “After thoughtful consideration, we will be transitioning into separate lives and do so with love, friendship, and a commitment to our children," Chris and Kelle Ilitch said in a joint statement provided by Mendelson on Tuesday. "We will support each other in our new journey and continue to focus on family, friends, and community. We have settled this matter, and it will have no impact on the ownership or operation of the Ilitch businesses. We ask that you respect our privacy during this time.”
