It's a hazy timeline, especially because he had it before. Easy injury to happen over and over again. I bet we will see him in August, see how it goes, then scratch the plan if he doesn't hold up, or work him in 4-5 days per week plus late game defensive sub if it does. Treat him as a luxury though, no way of knowing if and when it will resurface.Da Guru said:So Iggy has stress fractures in both shins, never heard of that happening before. That has to be at least 5-6 weeks to heal properly. I remember last season when he would hit a bag running and almost buckle in pain. Seems odd they did not diagnose that earlier.
How did they not see this last year when he had the same issues? Complete fail by the medical staff.Ugh - Iglesias out for the season. Bad loss.
Steven Drew..where are you??Ugh - Iglesias out for the season. Bad loss.
Remember last year every time he ran out a ball and first base he would be in agony?How did they not see this last year when he had the same issues? Complete fail by the medical staff.Ugh - Iglesias out for the season. Bad loss.

I'd say it costs them 15-20 games this year. Can you say WIDE OPEN DIVISION?Seems inevitable.These clowns in 3rd place yet?

Barney is a name at least. Darwin is a theory, Gregorius is a gladiator and DeeDee is a RamoneDarwin Barney & Didi Gregorius are names.
It supposedly tough to distinguish between shin splints and stress fractures.Remember last year every time he ran out a ball and first base he would be in agony?How did they not see this last year when he had the same issues?

The bullpen looked kind of shaky before.Rondon is going to have TJ surgery? Seriously?

It still doesn't stop the White Sox from sucking though, it just gives the Royals and Indians more to look forward to.It's the only logical conclusion.Seems inevitable.These clowns in 3rd place yet?

Here's Romine's major league highlightAnd your new shortstop is....
ANDREW ROMINE!

You're reaching for something positive about him, aren't you? His OBP last year was .308 and he had 1 SB in 123 PAs.He stole 62 bases in one year at low A.
His SB% rates since then have been net negative.Doctor Detroit said:He stole 62 bases in one year at low A.
Peralta could have made that play.Eephus said:Here's Romine's major league highlightDoctor Detroit said:And your new shortstop is....

He took the same position of Verlander did and that worked for him. Does anyone know the terms that were offered?So Max basically told us to #### off long term...even more reason we need to win WS this year

Max Scherzer's agent Scott Boras told ESPN.com's Jerry Crasnick that the Tigers rejected a contract offer from the right-hander's camp and not the other way around.
The Tigers released a statement Sunday saying Scherzer had rejected a "substantial, long-term contract offer," but Boras claims the team was the one that actually turned down Scherzer's extension offer. Boras isn't usually one to be believed, but that would actually make more sense than the idea of Scherzer rejecting something close to the $25.7 million AAV Justin Verlander got from the club, which ESPN's Jayson Stark had reported. Either way, the talks have broken off and Scherzer appears headed to a large payday next winter on the open market.
I wouldn't want to be one signing checks for a 33-38 YO Miggy.One way of looking at failing to resign Max is it frees up more money to resign Miggy- which is a far more important signing IMO. If he hits the market I highly doubt he resigns with Det.
I agree, if not that they should have made the best deal in the off season and kept Fister.I don't understand why the Tigers had to release that statement other than to get the fans off their back. I guess now if they trade him the fans won't go ballistic.
Let me again state that I said the Tigers should have extended Scherzer before last season, could have had him for Anibal Sanchez money.
Tigers need to open the check book on this one. Pay Max what he wants, and just raise the price of pizza's and beer.This should be fun

I think Cabrera will be just fine well into his 30s, guy can hit like no one else. Will he be worth $30 million a year then? Maybe not, but the Tigers have no choice but to keep him. They began negotiating with him after Scherzer decided he'd like to hit the open market, maybe a 7/220? He's going to be the highest paid player until Trout signs a long-term deal, and he'll be worth the money for most of his contract if he's healthy IMO.Limp Ditka said:I wouldn't want to be one signing checks for a 33-38 YO Miggy.skillz said:One way of looking at failing to resign Max is it frees up more money to resign Miggy- which is a far more important signing IMO.
