Happy Friday, everyone. It\u2019s been a rough week to be a Tigers fan, and with the two upcoming series against the White Sox and Rays the Tigers are going to need to fight for every potential win. I never thought I\u2019d say that about the White Sox, but they\u2019ve just had their first winning month in almost three years and don\u2019t seem like they plan to slow down any time soon.<\/p>\n
In the meantime, Detroit\u2019s downward trajectory coupled with Tarik Skubal\u2019s speedier-than-hoped recovery timeline means it\u2019s time to start heating up the hot stove, because rumors are swirling. Should the Tigers sell in the hope of being competitive in the future, or should they hold on and try to hope for a comeback this season? Only time will tell. Skubal has to get healthy first.<\/p>\n
And healthy is something the Tigers don\u2019t know much about this season. They have yet to go a single week this year without having a player on the IL, and this week is no different. Fingers crossed things start turning around.<\/p>\n
\u201cI always think there is a chance, but they would have to feel confident that they aren\u2019t going to be able to go on a run\u2026 And that the return would be significant enough to wave the proverbial white flag.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Happy Friday, everyone.
