DEEPER DISCUSSIONS.
Totally Tigers
With 18 MLB teams technically in the hunt for post-season playoffs, the trade deadline action is starting to heat up.
The Tigers will once again be sellers and their bullpen, ranked #3 in MLB, is expected to receive much attention by teams looking to beef up.
The Tigers starting rotation ranks #29 and their offense is last and about to set historic records. The bullpen is the only positive part of this roster. Given the almost complete destruction of the starting rotation, is the bullpen even more important to this team?
Should the Tigers entertain offers on their relievers? Soto? Cisneros? Fulmer? The latter is in his last year before he becomes a free agent and is expected to command a hefty multi-year contract.
Should the Tigers accept offers from other teams in order to get prospects or players who can come in and fill holes? Will the trade-off be worth it?
Or does the team need these players for next year? Should they keep Michael Fulmer for the rest of the year before he presumably leaves for another team?
Today?s blog addresses this dilemma and allows readers to share their thoughts in more detail. And hopefully, to actively engage with others by responding to their posts and creating back-and-forth discussion threads. The more the merrier!
