Let me just give you the quick synopsis, Tigerwise.

Thursday's opening day.

No one's saying we're not excited and none of us are lacking in hope.

But something really bothered me.

And it was this weekend, you know, the announcement was made.

Wyatt Langford is going to break camp with the Rangers.

And leading into the draft, I just said from the beginning you have the ability if you can get

white Langford get a college bat you do it like I just wasn't interested in Cruz and I wasn't interested in Max Clark. They took Max Clark. Now Max Clark might be a really good baseball player, but he's a high school.

Why at Langford, by every measure of scouting, just an incredibly advanced

approach and a bulletproof swing. Powered all fields, hit tooled all fields, like difference making all-star offensive player that

realistically slotted to be a left fielder was not going to be a center fielder

at the major league level no problem and we

today yes p n came out with their power rank and projections and the tigers

projected at a rather disappointing 78 and 84. And I said when we did this last hour I go think

about if they had just done two things. Two things I wanted them to do. None of which nothing major. No, no nothing crazy nothing you're responsible

You take Wyatt Langford and you sign Matt Chapman three at 54

Roughly on a wins above replacement level, that's about 7.5 more wins than where you sit currently. You want to be ultra conservative, call it five.

You're still trotting out a dead body.

It's weekend at Bernies at shortstop, because you refuse to move on from bias.

You got a Frankenstein at third base with the likes of McKinstree and Gio or Shella,

and your loan signing is a nothing burger in Mark Kana.

That's really tough for me to accept. So I asked a question, am I wrong for feeling this way?
