Writing about the Detroit Tigers for Just Baseball
My thought on Kim. Pros and cons; fit, contract, and more

Should the Detroit Tigers Sign Ha-Seong Kim?
A plus defender with offensive upside as well, Ha-Seong Kim would be the perfect infield target for the Detroit Tigers this offseason.

Heaney has felt like a fit since the beginning of the offseason.

But, With Cobb signed, I’m much less interested. Would hope for a higher quality arm than Heaney.

I wouldn’t hate it. There’s worse options and I just wonder how much Golby has left. 1 year deal? Sure

Some recently non-tendered players who I think might make sense for the Tigers

The Tigers Should Target These Non-Tendered Players
The Tigers won't sign all of these new free agents, but each one fills a need or looks like a type the team has sought in the past.

Ohhhhhhh.

Sandoval is a lefty with a plus changeup. Has flashed at times but hasn’t been consistent. Some injuries too.

Leonard being DFA’d in order to add the protected Rule 5 players is a bit surprising

I hope he can stick in the org. Thought he would be good depth for the Ibanez role.

What the Tigers do with back up catcher will be interesting

I like Dingler, and I think he should get the first crack at it. But, if he struggles or theirs an injury, where do you go?

Likely going to have some AAAA types
