2024 Trade Deadline

He's had 2 deadlines. He blew last years so bad that I'm certain it's carried over in fans opinion of this one.

Maybe but part of that blame should be put on ARod I think. Unless Harris is a complete idiot, which he might be - but my theory is he was okay waiving his no trade clause even to LA (which is why they talked with LA so much) and then he changed his mind last minute. That's my theory anyway..
 

Days of Roar Tigers Podcast: Recapping 2024 trade deadline for Detroit Tigers with player breakdowns from expert on prospects. 38 minutes.

The Detroit Tigers traded right-hander Jack Flaherty to the Los Angeles Dodgers for catcher/first baseman Thayron Liranzo and shortstop Trey Sweeney. The Tigers also traded catcher Carson Kelly, left-handed reliever Andrew Chafin and outfielder Mark Canha before Tuesday's 6 p.m. deadline. The Chafin trade netted the Tigers another notable prospect in right-hander Joseph Montalvo. We discuss everything about the Tigers at the trade deadline, from Flaherty's back injury to the return in the Dodgers deal. Also, Chris Clegg, founder of The Dynasty Dugout, joins to break down the new players joining the Tigers.

THE JULY TRADE DEADLINE POLL.
Totally Tigers

The July trade deadline has come and gone. The Detroit Tigers had 4 serious trade candidates and all of them got traded. We also learned that the team had no intention of trading Tarik Skubal.
Here is who was traded and the players each trade brought back:

Mark Canha – RHP Eric Silva

Andrew Chafin -2 RHP prospects (Joseph Montalvo #27 ranked and Chase Lee in AAA)

Jack Flaherty – Thayron Liranzo (catcher/1B and Fangraphs top 100) and Trey Sweeney (SS and almost MLB ready)

Carson Kelly – 2 AA players (catcher and reliever)

Here are the evaluating factors you need to consider:
All 4 now former Tigers were 2-month rentals (although Chafin has a team option if he pitches well for his new organization) which reduces the value of a return.

As well, both Canha and Flaherty had lingering health issues which would further diminish the return. In fact, Flaherty was set to go to the Yankees and they cancelled the deal after seeing his medicals. Unfortunately, word also got out to other teams which negatively impacted the other deals on the table.

The Tigers received 7 minor leaguers in exchange for 4 players: 2 catchers, a shortstop and 4 pitchers.
In almost every case, the buyers are teams looking to strengthen their rosters for playoffs so they are not going to trade anyone currently on their active rosters. Only prospects. The selling teams aren’t putting a priority on strengthening rosters for the current season. They are looking to add talent and depth for the next year and future.

Last year, the Tigers traded Michael Lorenzen and received 2Ber Hao-Yu Lee. They also acquired SS Eddys Leonard.

Given the results and parameters listed above, how would you rate the Tigers’ 2024 trade deadline?
How would you rate the Tigers' 2024 trade deadline moves?

1. Better than I thought.

2. About what I expected.

3. Less than I thought.

“Between Chris Illitch, Scott Harris, and this Tigers front office… It’s just not getting the job done.”
Ben Verlander is NOT please with the Tiger’s trade deadline.
 
When your organization depth in TOL..and just for TOL..has to play in the major leagues..injuries played a part..but its a GIANT fail..

When you are left to promote Sammons and Hanifee yet go on radio and project the idea fans are dumb..well keep using this word for Scott Harris..that the entire baseball industry uses..RESUME..you are what your RESUME says you are..injuries are one thing..arrogance..is another.

If the aura of Scott Harris recent public interactions gives off the vibe of.."I am smarter than you"..its the same vibe rival front offices are getting...most of whom know..that Scott isn't smarter than them..he only thinks he is..its likely something he will regret post firing.
 
The Tigers will make a handful of roster moves today to replace Flaherty, Chafin and Canha.
One of the newcomers will be RHP Brenan Hanifee, who pitched in Detroit late last year and has 53 strikeouts and 14 walks in 47 innings this year at Triple-A Toledo.
 
Scott Harris Full Interview with 97.1 this morning.


Too long, can't watch? Details below:-

Confirms they were never close to trading Skubal-

Spending money doesn't automatically make you a winner-

Reminds us that young players are currently getting better in MLB-
"Doesn't know" if Spencer Torkelson will be back in the MLB this year.-

"we can both add bats while developing core" but have to do it smart.

Says having a DH would've limited Colt Keith, J-Hen and Kerry Carpenter.-

Mentions Jace Jung and that he may be better than the options that are on the FA market. -

Again says he didn't "settle" for players at the deadline. Compares it to negotiating buying a house. -

Haven't talked about buying out Baez contact at all internally. -

Makes joke about fans wanting to spend money, but in the same breath people are wanting them to buy out Baez contract-

Excited for C/1B Thayron Liranzo because he "nukes" balls. advanced game called behind the plate.

Scott Harris might not be cut out to lead the Tigers

Scott Harris has been here two years and struggled with two trade deadlines and two offseasons. Do we really think this is the guy to lead us into the future?

Scott Harris might not be cut out to lead the Tigers.
Scott Harris has had a couple of years to prove his worth. So far, it has been a major struggle. Uneventful offseasons and botched trade deadlines have fans in an uproar.

FIVE FOR FRIDAY.
Totally Tigers

The dust is starting to settle over the July trade deadline but quite frankly, it may be several years before we fully know how well this went for the Detroit Tigers.
It’s a different mindset that fans need to have. So many of us got used to those Christmas-in-July moments under Dave Dombrowski when price was no option and the Tigers routinely had one of MLB’s biggest payrolls as they attempted to seriously compete in the World Series.

But now this team has been sellers since 2015 – a full decade of it. And let’s face it, being sellers sucks.
We want fun. We want excitement. We want to see great players starting to wear the Olde English D.
It’s been far too long.

But now we need to find a way of seeing the positives out of these July moves instead of lamenting them. The more positive moments we see, the sooner this team gets back on its feet.
So let’s try to find the silver linings in what happened on Tuesday. Little bits of promising (hopefully) news that we can cling to going forward. Especially since the rest of this year is going to be challenging given that some of the better players are now gone.

Here are 5 of the biggest takeaways to come out of the trade deadline for the Tigers:

Tigers' best move of the 2024 trade deadline actually wasn't a move at all

The Tigers dodged a bullet by not trading Tarik Skubal at the deadline.

this part of the article is spot on

"It's also hard to put any faith in Harris and the Tigers front office's ability to make a worthwhile deal for Skubal happen, especially given the return they got from the Dodgers for Jack Flaherty, which seems to shrink even further in the shadows of the Padres' deal for Tanner Scott and the Astros' for Yusei Kikuchi. Thank goodness that the Tigers weren't actually wanting to trade Skubal like they were Flaherty. Otherwise, that probably would've turned into one of the nastier trades we've ever seen."

AJ Hinch's comments on pitching shortage offer no confidence in Tigers organization

Last paragraph:
Realistically, this non-strategy means that the Tigers will likely go from bullpen game to bullpen game and so on, and that means blowing out their relievers' arms and slipping further and further away from .500 over the next two months. That's a wrap on the 2024 season, folks -- and perhaps this overuse invites injury risk that threatens 2025, too.
