February 17 in Tigers and mlb history:

1883: At a meeting between the American Association and the National League, the Tripartite Agreement (or "National Agreement") is drafted. In it the two leagues, along with the Northwestern League, agree to respect each other's contracts, ending a brief period of player raids. Also, the reserve rule is amended to allow each team to reserve 11 players, an increase of 6. The National Agreement will usher in a period of peaceful coexistence, lasting until the Players League war of 1890.

1886: Superior Court of Detroit rules to protect neighbors' right to erect bleachers outside Recreation Park for baseball fans. Ruling was later upheld by Michigan Supreme Court.

1891: The American Association withdraws from the National Agreement thus starting a war with the National League. The AA moves its Chicago team to Cincinnati to compete with the National League team in the city.

1900: Mary Hamilton Von Derbeck is to become owner of the Detroit American League franchise and of Bennett Park, in lieu of unpaid alimony. However, her ex-husband George Von Derbeck files the required bond with a Michigan court to cover the alimony due, regains ownership of the club, and sells it to Tiger manager George Stallings on March 6th.

1909: The National League deprives umpires of the power to fine players and decrees that relief pitchers must retire at least one batter before being relieved.

1937: The New York Yankees buy another Babe from the Red Sox, picking up Babe Dahlgren. The California native will become the player who replaces Lou Gehrig.

1943: Joe DiMaggio, drawing $43,500 from the Yankees, trades in his salary for the $50 a month as an army enlisted man. DiMaggio, in his customary quiet style, gives no notice to the club.

1964: Former White Sox SS Luke Appling is elected into the Hall of Fame by a special vote. In 1953, Appling's first year of eligibility for Cooperstown, the Sox great received just two votes. He holds the single-season highest batting average for his position, hitting .388 in 1936.

1965: Commissioner Ford Frick suspends U.S.-Japan baseball relations until the Yomiuri Giants-San Francisco Giants dispute over Masanori Murakami's contract is resolved.

1970: Sports Illustrated releases cover story on Denny McLain's involvement with bookmakers in 1967.

The $14.75 million deal for the four-time Cy Young Award winner eclipses the $12 million given to David Cone by the Yankees in 2000.

SATURDAY SURVEY.
Totally Tigers

Players from the 2023 Detroit Tigers’ roster are facing increasing competition during spring training this year.
Four in particular risk losing their spots to other players and being sent down to Toledo. In the meantime, the Tigers are graduating more prospects and adding depth to all areas of their pitching, catching and defense.

The 4 most at risk are:
AKIL BADDOO – He has already lost out a regular outfield spot as Riley Greene has been moved to the corner and Mark Canha was just signed.

ALEX FAEDO – He’s had 2 disappointing years on the mound and fingernail issues that have made gripping baseballs problematic at times.

CARSON KELLY – He’s got 1 year left on his contract and facing increasing competition from catchers being stockpiled in the minors.

CASEY MIZE – In 3 years, he’s only pitched 1 complete season. Now he’s returning from both Tommy John and back surgeries and hasn’t pitched in almost 2 full years.Meanwhile younger pitchers have started knocking on the door.

Out of these 4 players, which one has the most pressure to succeed this spring training in an attempt to sustain his career?
