So, I didn't see a thread started, and all the others are pretty maxed out to the point where a fresh thread would be needed soon either way.

Time to share the run up to ST & and another memorable year in the making!

Yep, and probably took most teams including the Royals out of the equation.

So the Tigers get Cespedes and give up Porcello and some minor leaguer. Everyone in our division is making major moves and we are signed Morales and some JAG ruled 5 pick. Here comes 29 more years of suck.

Why is year 5 a risk? If he pitches enough innings in years 1-4 to vest the option, year 5 shouldn't be a huge concern.

I feel like I should remind everyone that the Cespedes trade made the Tigers worse.

Well, the risk is that those IP that vests the option are mediocre or bad.

Because he is 32. A 3 year deal with 4th year option would be the best for what he is. Twins overpaid for a 4th and potentially 5th.

In the last 60 or so games of last season, Morales was better than Moss.

Really think KC would have been wise to move off its "Three years only" stance on him, in this case.

Have a feeling KC's extra starter could end up being a big question mark...

Right. At least a .750 OPS from the DH is still an upgrade for KC from what it got last season.

Morales was a little bit better in the second half last year, so there's some credence to the "sitting out" concept.

It's still underwhelming if that's their only offensive addition, and it doesn't help much against RHP.

Still could use an OF who can handle RF and hits well against lefties.

Exactly.

Detroit's current rotation (Guy in that spot last year):

David Price (David Price - wash)
Justin Verlander (Max Scherzer - sizeable gap)
Anibal Sanchez (Anibal Sanchez - wash)
Alfredo Simon (Justin Verlander - gap)
???? (Rick Porcello - sizeable gap)

Verdict: Worse at 3/5 spots

Detroit's lineup still has Victor Martinez and Miguel Cabrera, but it seems pretty likely that Martinez drops off a bit and a healthy Miggy bumps up a bit, washing each other out. Cespedes was actually worse with the bat last year than Hunter and is going to be playing RF, which he hates.

Anthony Gose is a downgrade from the Austin Jackson/Rajai Davis combo in CF last year.

JD Martinez could repeat his performance in Detroit last year, but would you put money on it? I wouldn't.

Cespedes, as discussed, would have actually been a downgrade in RF last year.

Castellanos probably gets better offensively but isn't a huge, difference-making bat.
