I thought before Willson Contreras was too ambitious for the Detroit Tigers to chase as a trade target. I could be wrong.

So far this off-season, we have done several trade target pieces that could fit into the Detroit Tigers 2021 plans. Originally, I said to trade for Cubs catcher Victor Caratini simply because it would not cost Detroit some higher-end prospects and he is serviceable defensively for a young pitching staff, despite his lack of power numbers.
