Justin Masterson: maybe the only person in the world who will take a discount from a multimillion-dollar payday just to be in Cleveland.
Just joking, of course. Props to him – I love it when players are willing to take hometown discounts.
Hugo Santana
RESPECT for Masterson

Love Masterson, Love Thome.

Not a fan of Tigers internal options. Davis can’t hit righties, Kelly can’t hit, and the two we brought in on MiLB deals also leave a lot to be desired. Fields is the only internal option that showed some competence with a bat, but that was at single A last year and probably isn’t ready for the show.
FA options are just as bad. And not many LH outfielders available as a trade I’d assume. Guess I’ll be watching Kelly be a black hole and hope Dirks has a speedy recovery

There is always a player on another team that gets cut late in spring training. DD will be opportunistic and flexible and likely find someone.

Carrera and that other guy both play good D, are fast and hit for good average in AAA.

I feel like somebody should have picked thome up last year.

He appeared unwilling to take a minor league deal even though players like Giambi haven’t had much trouble turning those into jobs year in and year out.
