For the first time in years, it seems like the Detroit Tigers are making real progress, and it feels incredible. Fans were appraised of the front office’s state of mind entering the offseason, and what the team’s brass had to say was considerably more meaningful than the comments of similar press conferences the past several Octobers. The pressing question on the mind of any given Tigers fan is how the team will spend their money, if at all. Executive Vice President of Baseball Operations and General Manager Al Avila answered that question with a well-informed “maybe.”
“This is not going to be spending like a drunken sailor, those types of comments,” he stated plainly.
