Ever wonder about some Detroit sports writers who publish absurd predictions? Like the one who claims the Detroit Tigers should trade Casey Mize in order to get a new catcher? Or that Jeimer Candelario will be traded?

As for Candy, his performance has taken a solid jump this year. Offensively, he's 3rd in R, 2nd in H, 1st in 2B, 2nd in RBI, 2nd in BA (reg. players) and 1st in OPS.

when I watch Logan Webb Michael Fulmer Kyle Funkhauser and Lucas Giolitto it reinforces the idea that Matt Manning needs to tweak his arm swing for more deception and consistency..may also improve his slider spin.

But Tigers need at least two big bats, on top of the upcoming arrivals of Riley Greene and Torkelson, etc. Catcher complicates matters, entirely, with Jake Rogers gone in 2022. Will not be surprised to see them deal one of their young blue-chip pitchers, with Casey Mize a guess.

Tigers lose another tight, low-scoring game (the most familiar of their 2021 scripts). And the off-season mandates only get clearer: major upgrades on offense, beginning at short. Correa will go to the Yankees, probably. Detroit likely not on Seager's list. Trevor Story? Maybe.
