Report (MLB) - Rangers & Tigers Swap Ian Kinsler For Prince Fielder

<< < (2/3) > >>

Hack Wilson - real:
i heard about this on the radio yesterday morning...all I can say is Detroit can only do as well as their pitching staff takes them because Cabrera breaks down by October.

Halu Sination:
I thought the whole point of trading Kinsler was to clear up the infield logjam, but if they're trying to trade Andrus and Profar too, then there is no doubt they are going after Cano.

I hope to hell Dodgers don't go after Andrus like reports stated. Hanley doesn't want to switch positions and I don't want Dodgers to go through the same diva drama that Marlins went through with that.

MistaNova:
Judging from the reports I've heard it'd take a huge package to convince the Rangers to part with Andrus or Profar. Something like David Price, Giancarlo Stanton or in the Dodgers' case, a Yasiel Puig or Clayton Kershaw :P. Although the minute an offer like that comes their way they'll take it in a heartbeat and fill up the void by either going for Cano or maybe give Omar Infante a shot. Then they can let Cruz leave via free agency and get back the compensation pick they gave up to the Yankees or Tigers from the team that signs Cruz (unless it's one of those protected draft pick teams).

BTW, I got a report on my Twitter feed that Cano has been spotted in Detroit recently. Now that Fielder's gone and Miguel Cabrera can go back to 1st, the Tigers will also need a 3rd baseman. Maybe they sign Cano, shift Kinsler to short and shift Iglasias to third? Maybe they sign Cano and shift Kinsler to 3rd? Maybe they reunite with Brandon Inge?

Hack Wilson - real:
the Tigers are doomed nomatter what if their pitching doesn't preform well in October.

lmao. Price for Andrus/Profar is one thing, since Price will inevitably hit the trading block (though Price is worth WAYYY more than Andrus and Profar), but Puig or Kershaw? What in the holiest of fucks...

If Detroit signs Cano, then they're going to have the same drama Kinsler had in Texas, which was Kinsler not wanting to switch positions. In any case, I'm not convinced Detroit truly cared about Kinsler anyways, despite what Detroit management says. That trade was about getting rid of Fielder's contract, and when they heard about all of Rangers' middle infielders being tradable, they bit.
