"To recap the earlier blog, this team is down 3 starting pitchers.

The Tigers also need a right-handed bat with some pop. But they really could use 2.

It’s the infield that is a complete mess both offensively and defensively.

First, that the infield (minus Jake Rogers and Trey Sweeney) holds a -13 DRS when the everyday players are in the lineup. It’s the utility guys and Matt Vierling who help raise the defensive bar. Defensively, the Tigers rank dead last in MLB at 3B.

And that position could yet be another need for Harris to fill. If he’s lucky, it’s a RHH who is a plus defender.

But the infield problems are deep. But offensively, there is not a single player there with a capable bat. Potentially, it may be Colt Keith but it’s too soon to tell"

This does not sound like a team that is done rebuilding.
 

Days Of Roar Tigers Podcast: Breaking down Detroit Tigers target Walker Buehler; Baseball America's JJ Cooper talks top 10 prospects. 67 minutes.

The Winter Meetings will take place from Dec. 9-11 in Dallas. So far, the Tigers haven't made any offseason trades or signings, but that doesn't mean they're inactive. The Tigers have taken a patient approach to the free-agent and trade markets, as we reported coming out of the general manager meetings in early November. However, the Tigers are still targeting at least one starting pitcher and at least one right-handed hitter. Starting pitcher Walker Buehler is one free agent the Tigers have shown interest in. To explore further, Nick Pollack of Pitcher List breaks down Buehler's career, the importance of his fastball and how the Tigers' pitching department could help him improve. Later on, JJ Cooper of Baseball America joins to discuss the top 10 prospects in the Tigers' organization, led by Jackson Jobe. Pollack also discusses Tarik Skubal winning the Cy Young Award, while Cooper shares insights into how the Tigers have evolved as an organization in recent years.

Tigers have asked Justyn-Henry Malloy and Colt Keith to take grounders at first. More optionality.

I really don't understand why Keith isn't playing his natural position, which is 3B. Ever since he was drafted, his profile is as a 3B. "Lack of foot speed, great arm, plus power/bat" He isn't a second baseman.
