Al Avila gave some answers to the Detroit Tigers’ off-season plans to the press yesterday.
Detroit Tigers GM Al Avila had his first press availability of the off-season and did his level best to pour cold water on the hopes of as many fans as possible for the upcoming year. It was an amazing Tour de Force of Avila’s skills in setting low expectations.
He also showed undeniable signs of being Patient Zero for an affliction that hopefully can be contained in Detroit…” Jordan Zimmermann Syndrome”.
The event was innocent enough and very admirable.
