Jim Costa's Tigers Rumor | The Valenti Show with Rico

Should the Detroit Tigers make this move?

[PistonsTalk]

Man Stoney and Mike are electric together

[CJM]

Dont care what they do with Skubal. I do care that Stoney and Mike are together, 10X better than rico.

So a couple of prospects that were in a ball last year and are highly valued by baseball scouts for a proven ace that's under team control for 2 years. You have to ask yourself if skubal is the face of the organization. Skubal maybe the tigers ace for the next decade and the prospects might start. It's interesting to be excited for this trade. I would rather they just sign a 3rd baseman or a first baseman in the off season

[travisbg]

For Skubal the Orioles are gonna have to send a lot more than just Holliday. I would say 3 or 4 prospects. Or maybe a proven Major League player.

[chromiumdragon]

I gave you a thumbs up for not having that Rico guy.

[zb]

please go full time valenti and stoney

[douglasmargitza]

dont think Orioles are parting away w holiday for any pitcher

[WilliamMullins-webr]

Holiday and maybe a few others ? Do it

[jasonsmalarz]

Mayo, Holliday and their top pitching prospect…..I’m in!

[dorion]

I’d take the deal a million percent for Holliday and Mayo. Don’t even care who else gets attached with the deal. This would move the rebuild up 3-4 years

[HuskyWolf]

I would make the deal....Holliday, Mayo and Beavers

[rogermacleod]

Don't trade Skubal until it is obvious you can't land him as a FA.

[dalestemen]

Tigers wont do that. They arent savvy enough.

[craigmiller]

Orioles fans would freak out if gave up Mayo too. Too much. So, if that is what you need, it isn’t going to happen.

[jacobhampton]

Its gotta be minimum Holliday and Mayo to start

[Hydra]

The way that turns into a longer rebuild is if none of the prospects we get pan out at the MLB level. I'm tired of people acting as if no matter who we get from Baltimore, they're guaranteed to be MLB stars. Happy that Mike and Stoney actually acknowledged that.

[mikeplumer]

I can tell you as an Os fan the scuttlebutt here is that Skubal is the one guy in baseball we would trade Holliday for. I would be shocked if you got Mayo too. But i could absolutely see Holliday, Norby, Cowser or one of our top pitching prospects Povich, McDermott or S Johnson

[plumisland]

I’d rather have Skubal than those 3 guys.

[HonoluluBlue]

If it’s Holliday, Mayo and one other top 10 prospect in the O’s system then Subal is an Oriole.

Tigers fans who oppose trading Skubal are the same ones who praise the Lions for trading Stafford.

[normanleroy]

I was totally against this a few months ago but the Tigers have worn me down by their inability to put a lineup together. We have trouble developing position prospects, we do fairly well developing pitching prospects, so the deal makes sense. In a perfect world we wouldn't dream of trading a young superstar pitcher like Skubal, but this isn't a perfect world and the Tigers are clearly not a perfect organization.
