Tigers will be crippled at that point. Those dumb asses gave Miguel Cabrera 300 million over 10 years.

He's 30 years old.

So they'll be paying him 30 million a year when he's 35-40. What the fuck? But good for the White Sox.

Plus the writers said they have the worst farm system in baseball which means they have no chance of ever being good again.

He'll be 31 next month. Awful deal.

Bad deal, I agree, but you do realize the owner is worth close to $4 bill, so that last 3-4 years that he might not even play, he can afford it, not that others who own baseball teams can't, but he will eat it or have him deliver pizzas.

We don't have to get any better. The other teams in our division just have to get worse!

Looks like Kenny was right again! The Tigers indeed are chasing the Sox!

The 3lb sundae is probably great when you have 3 or 4 of your kids that all want ice cream. Get a couple extra plates and they can all share.

They have bacon on a stick (not sure about that one), and a chicken & waffles sammich. I'm actually looking forward to trying that one.

I'm sure you get enough of it at home but the polish sausage remains the best thing the serve.

I've always liked the deli sandwiches they serve in the RF Corner. I think its about $6 for freshly sliced deli meat, toppings of your choice, a pickle, and some potato chips. Pretty good deal for ballpark food, and the sandwiches are always pretty damn good.

I don't see how this is good news for the Sox. There's no salary cap. Unless the cable TV a la carte thing happens by 2017, the Tigers won't regret this.

Seems pretty accurate. And I honestly don't blame him. I'm not aware of the will situation, but I'm guessing after he passes, it may not be so freewheelin' around the payroll department.
