Kinda sucks too...don't we basically have to trade him for more prospects?
 
Niko Goodrum is a triple shy of the cycle. He has his first four-hit game since last Aug. 30.

The Tigers front office was so high on Turnbull that they gave his spot in the rotation to Tyson Ross- if there hadn't been injuries, he would have started the season in AAA or the bullpen. Savvy Al Avila and the rest of the idiots deluxe.
 
They won't trade Mize, he might get a look in September, or be on the team in 2020.

I don't mean now or even next year but very early on in his career. Basically we won't see him in a Tigers uniform for very long. Because if he's a stud he'll be a waste to keep with this team since we won't be ready to compete for a playoff spot for god knows how long. He'll be the guy we must trade for multiple prospects to help us get better sooner. And that part sucks...we really can't keep him.

If Trout the best player in the league stayed with the 'crud' we call the Angels there's hope.
