December 18 in Tigers and mlb history:

1903 - At the league meeting, Ban Johnson is reelected American League president and given a raise to $10,000.
Also, the AL votes to allow coaches at third base and first base at all times: till now, only one coach was permitted except if there were two or more baserunners.
The AL also institutes the "foul strike" rule, used by the National League since 1901: a foul will be counted as a strike unless there are already two strikes.

1920 - On his 34th birthday, Ty Cobb signs to manage the Tigers for $32,500.

Tigers GM Al Avila told 105.1 FM in Detroit that the team?s payroll situation would be ?pretty ugly? with another big signing, according to Anthony Fenech of the Detroit Free Press (on Twitter). Avila ruled out a run at top-of-the-market outfielders like Yoenis Cespedes at last week?s Winter Meetings, but Fenech recently noted that owner Mike Ilitch made no such claim. In theory, Cespedes? reps at Roc Nation Sports could try and pitch directly to Ilitch, as Scott Boras reportedly did with Prince Fielder four years ago.
