Why is everything always tied to getting Cabrera’s contract off the books?
Darragh McDonald
1:20
He's making 32MM per year and hasn't been good for a while.
Jim Leyland Palmer
1:20
How about medium priced signings? Guys like Mancini, or maybe even a Nimmo?
Darragh McDonald
1:21
I think Nimmo will get paid a lot since he's basically the only good center fielder. But Mancini would work.
Free agents
1:24
Do you think Detroit signs a free agent SP this year? Someone like Andrew Heaney or Jose Quintana?
Darragh McDonald
1:24
Both of those guys make sense, sure.

Likelihood that Chafin takes his player option for 23?
Darragh McDonald
1:25
This is a very interesting question because, from a pure baseball perspective, he should opt out and become a free agent.
But there were some reports that he likes living in the area because his family (or his wife's family?) is not too far away.

Move the Tigers back to the AL East?
Darragh McDonald
1:30
I would love to see some realignment, especially now that there's no difference between the AL and NL.
1:31
For now, we'll have to settle for the more balanced schedule that begins next year.

Going back to the Bellinger question asked earlier, why not move Greene to right and let Belli play center with Meadows in left?
Darragh McDonald
1:32
Greene might end up in a corner down the road, but he's only 22 and probably gets a shot to stick in center.
1:33
If he can handle it, he's much more valuable.
