Detroit Tigers News: Al Avila says “low probability” of signing Troy Tulowitzki

On Tuesday afternoon, the Toronto Blue Jays shocked the baseball community by releasing All-Star shortstop Troy Tulowitzki. Of course, the question among Tigers fans, us included, was “Should the Tigers try to sign him?

Well, turns out Al Avila and the Tigers brass are asking themselves that same question. It’s only natural that a team desperately in need of a shortstop for the 2019 season would perk up when the opportunity to sign one of the best active shortstops on the market appears. But before you get too excited and make yourself a custom Tulo jersey for Christmas, temper those expectations.
