After 2 championships and 8 years of success, Crane would probably have to have 5 more years of 100 losses for me not to trust him. Especially how...
I honestly think it was all for show. Crane knew he would have to pay Luhnow eventually.
Other teams like the Yankees and Dodgers would offer more just so we couldn't get them. That would be the scariest lineup ever. Just imagine...
I just don't see Yuli going anywhere else. He's not going to be expensive and wasn't expensive the last 2 years. I'm thinking 10 million for the...
There is bold and there is stupid. In the end we made the right move.
I don't think the Verlander decision will be a 1+1 deal. If it were, Crane will pay it regardless of how much it is. I'm think it will be at least...
I don't think Crane would have paid Correa anyway, and watching Pena play, it's pretty obvious the kid was special. Correa even said it during his...
Let's break down Click's contributions Inherited a world series team that was up 3-2 team. Signed Baez - Bust Signed Odorizzi - Bust Signed...
Crane has a great baseball mind. You don't hire Luhnow and Click and let them do what they do without a great mind. Click is as good of a GM as...
There is a difference between being aggressive and being raped. Urquidy is worth more than a rental of catcher that wouldn't play more than half...

Crane ain't trading a strong rotation pitcher for a rental catcher that would only play at most half the time.
Actually its very hard to find catchers that hit a little bit, call good games, and play defense. That is why Maldi was so highly valued even...
Unless someone gives him a max scherzer size contract, I think he will resign. He knows how good he has it here with the guys in the locker room....
They were over matched
We should have won in 5 games. The first game was a fluke. How many times in his career has Verlander lost a 5 run lead after running through the...
We need someone to take Brantley and Yulis minutes and impact. I'm thinking resign Brantley and Vasquez and then try to get Abreu. Bring Yuli...
Signing Verlander to a 2+1 deal would make a lot of sense. Crane is is willing to pay the tax for a contender and we expect to be a contender...
If anything Crane is about competing. You don't go on this kind of sustained run without good ownership.
The Luhnow Era.
