The offseason is heating up, and the Detroit Tigers are making some bold moves! With the recent signing of Jack Flaherty and their continued pursuit of Alex Bregman, it raises some intriguing questions about the direction of the franchise.

First off, what do you think about the Tigers' strategy of going after Bregman after securing Flaherty? Is this a sign that they are ready to compete now, or are they still in a rebuilding phase? Flaherty's two-year deal gives them some stability on the mound, but adding Bregman could be a game-changer for their lineup.

Speaking of Bregman, he reportedly has multiple six-year offers on the table, including one from the Astros. If the Tigers manage to land him, how do you see that impacting their roster? Would it mean sending top prospect Jace Jung down to Triple-A, or could they find a way to integrate him into the lineup?

And let's not forget about the financial implications. With the Tigers' payroll projected to be around $142MM, do you think they have the flexibility to make a significant investment in Bregman? Or could this lead to a situation where they overextend themselves financially?

Lastly, what are your thoughts on the potential impact of Bregman’s power numbers in Detroit compared to Houston? Will the dimensions of Tiger Stadium affect his performance, or is he talented enough to adapt?

Let’s hear your predictions and insights! Are the Tigers making the right moves, or are they setting themselves up for a potential misstep?
