The Detroit Tigers broke me.
I thought they were going to have a solid season. I’m not talking about getting to the World Series or even the playoffs.
But I was convinced they would play meaningful games late in the season. All of the additions seemed to plug the major holes. I was in favor of signing Javier Baez and trading for Tucker Barnhart, even bringing back Robbie Grossman. Everything made sense to me, including acquiring Austin Meadows.
At the very least, I thought they would be relevant.
