Offseason Needs / 2013

[kalinecountry]

More I think about it, for number 2 -- Jonny Gomes. His numbers against LHP have been impressive.

I kind of agree. I was thinking about him and the other two players.....ross and victorino?
and gomes was probably the only one that would agree to a 1 year deal if it came down to them.
Watching him through the years, I also get the feeling he is a semi-nutjob, but one of those "fire' guys, hollering rah types,
without checking UZR etc. only caveat, is his defense, imo.

trade for Mike Morse?

costs is more than say gomes, maybe even ross.

Power guy that can hit for average though doesn't walk much. At least from the link. I guess I'm outta of tune with the NL because I've never heard of him until now.

he's also pretty awful in the field, hes more of a 1B type than an OF anymore. id pass.

Gomes and his glove of stone might be going to the redsox for a 2 year deal.

Anyone see this frickin' nitwits trade for Tigers with the orioles??

ESPN doesn't even have a clue that Castellanos will play LF, at least he's being groomed for it. I hate when writers insist he's being blocked.

Good Lord.

 

[mjsb2]

Even if Castellanos was blocked, the Tigers could include him in a package to get a player who is actually good.

 

[Mitchrapp]

You mean J.J. Hardy isn't any good? Lol.

 

[spockmaster]

well, he's a defensive wizard but below average offensively, and he's not a star...so why in the hell would we trade 2 of our top prospects for jj hardy and jim johnson? thats beyond stupid. shoenfield should be ashamed of himself for suggesting something so ridiculously fucking dumb.

 

[Mitchrapp]

We should add Fister to that deal. Only makes sense.

Worst deal I've seen proposed. I find it especially comical when you consider that weak package he suggested could get Stanton right above it. Rays make a weak offer and get Stanton meanwhile the Tigers trade their top prospect and some other decent guys and get JJ Hardy....wow.

He's solid.

A good role player, but you don't trade a prospect like Castellanos for a good role player.

It really is laughable.

Can't tell whats worse, that he actually wrote that, or that he's actually paid to analyze baseball.

Baffles the mind.

Fister and Scherzer. Just to let them know we're serious.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Come on DD, go get JJ Hardy. Given them anything they ask for.

 

[durtymrclean]

Maybe throw in Verlander to sweeten the deal.

 

[biggunsbob]

Yeah Verlander and and Max straight up for hardy... maybe we can get the O's to throw someone else in on the deal.. does it matter... We will beat the Yankees again on our way to the WS only to get crushed again... (oh wait i told Ron a month back that the tigers are poised to win three WS in row starting next year!!!!!!) Man the wolverines have me pissed today still...
