I couldn't do that to you. So it would take me 30 minutes to read it to you. And I'm not your Nona. and this isn't a bedtime story.

The takeaways are the following. entire thing at ESPN.com. I couldn't do that to you. So it would take me 30 minutes to read it to you.

And I'm not sure Nona. And this isn't a bedtime story. The takeaways of the following.

The Tigers seemingly are unreasonable in trade talks. Scott Harris is looking at 27 and 28,

which should infuriate you because that means it legitimizes everything we talked about this year they didn't try um and the other angle is here are your outlays for what the scubel situation

looks like what do you make of it i'm not overreacting any which way i mean there's nothing for me to do

i i know what i would do i'm not telling you it's easy or amazing. I would trade him.

But I'm also respectful and understanding of those who say, no, let's keep him and give it another run.

That's fine too. What I worry about is, okay, if you keep him, do you have the spinal cord to look in the mirror and say this team isn't World

Series good and trade a midseason and deal with what comes with that? I've seen nothing

from this organization to suggest they got that type of steel in their spine. Shout out Harbaugh.

No. This looks like, it looks like, seems like, feels like we're going to gamble again. We've gambled the last two years. We've won. They feel like they have house money now. We'll take our chances. We'll see what happens. And we'll get to the playoffs. And then after that, we'll deal with the postseason fallout. But I don't think they're going to break this fallout but I don't think they're going to

break this thing up I don't think they're going to make a trade I don't even they would have to

be a ridiculous amount of games out before they even trade him at the deadline so I don't think

it's going to happen now Mike this kind of seems as if they've already set it down. We're going to ride this.

He's our guy and he's under contract for one more season. We'll see what happens at the end of this

next season. But we're not going to really make any grand neos gestures of trying to keep him here.

And you know. Then what's the point? See, right off the rip, then what's the point? If you like him enough that you won't even engage in realistic trade talks, then pay them in. I mean, I'm just making a point. Look, when John Paul Morosi says there's nothing, that means they haven't put a record-breaking A-AV, shorter-term, multiple opt-outs. Until or unless you do that, I can't take you serious. Could it be? Hear me out. When he says, hear me out, you know it's just going to piss me off. Go ahead. Let me hear it. Hey, David, how are you? No, no, go ahead. Let me hear you out. Could it just be that they're trying to be fiscally responsible? Yep, there it is. Yep, right there. Right to the back of your head. We're done. I don't want to hear it. I don't want to win a World Series. Don't hear it. I want to win a World Series 2, but you, we've said it. The article said it. Their World Series window opens in 2027. We're not in the window yet. Cool, then shut the ballpark down. People

are still spending their money. Yes. It's not. And by the way, your window could have been now.

If you did a damn thing at the deadline. Okay, first of all, we're on the same

team. I'm just thinking, I'm thinking like the Tigers, and for the Tigers, these past two seasons,

gravy. We didn't expect them. Fans loved them. It looked like we actually gave a damn. Oh,
