MLB qualifying offer jumps to $17.2 million for 2017 season.
The increase of nearly $2 million probably will not impact the Tigers this offseason.

Mailbag: Brad Ausmus can learn from Terry Francona.
Not all of Francona?s moves translate to the regular season, but he is subtly changing the game this postseason.

Pressure on Al Avila as Detroit Tigers Hint They Will Start to Slash Payroll.

Though nobody would admit it, it's likely the effect of Mike Ilitch taking a reduced role in the organization.
Chris Ilitch was named the successor last season, and has long been known to value fiscal responsibility within his organization.
If Avila and the Tigers won't be looking at adding more bigger named free agents, that points to the trade market as a likely spot of impact.

October 19 in Tigers and mlb history:

1923 - Citing the unsavory characters associated with the sport, American League president Ban Johnson persuades AL owners to prohibit boxing matches in their parks. The National League declines to go along with it.

1932 - The Baseball Writers Association of America MVP awards are announced, with Jimmie Foxx winning in the American League and Chuck Klein in the National League.

1945 - Tiger ace Hal Newhouser is named American League Most Valuable Player for the second straight season. Newhouser won the pitching triple crown, going 25-9 with a 1.81 ERA and 212 strikeouts. He receives nine first place votes and easily outdistances Detroit teammate Eddie Mayo.

1965 - NBC wins a Major League Baseball television package, including prime-time All-Star Game and World Series games.

2013 - For the second time in the series, Boston uses a late-game grand slam to defeat the Tigers in the ALCS. Shane Victorino's 7th-inning blast over the Green Monster off Jose Veras is key to a 5 - 2 win that sends the Red Sox to the World Series. Koji Uehara picks up his third save in addition to a win to receive the series' MVP honors.
