FIVE FOR FRIDAY.
Totally Tigers
The Detroit Tigers and Alex Bregman/Scott Boras remain at a standstill regarding a possible contract. It is reported that both sides are still very interested in each other.
Bregman would improve the infield with his defense and his bat would provide some pop to a team in desperate need of offense. However, his age and contract demands would most likely no longer fit the team’s needs after several years.
But the Tigers need to find a solution for 3B. There are other players available via free agency although none as high-profile as Bregman. They could also make a trade.
Jace Jung only played 27 games at the hot corner in 2024 which is not enough time to get a true evaluation. Jung is ranked #6 by MLB in 3B prospects.
Matt Vierling played there last year more than any other player remaining on the roster.
The Cardinals want to trade Nolan Arenado who initially has a no-trade clause to Detroit but rumors say he is reconsidering.
Other than Bregman, there are 6 other free agent 3Bers available.
