Re: 2007/2008 Tigers Offseason Moves

I like Grandy, too, but the guy strikes out a lol. Although he did reduce them by a lot last season (from 174 to 141). I'd put an incentive in there giving him more $$$ if he gets his strikeout numbers into double digits.

Not sure he should be hitting leadoff.

Grady Sizemore who most people compare Grandy with got $23.4 million for 6 years in 2004.

Quote:
Sizemore signed a 6-year contract with the Indians worth $23.45 million with a club option for 2012.

$30 million is a fair price though hopefully before Grandy's contract is up he will get an extension at higher dollars.

I think he can become a 30 - 30 guy. He needs to learn how to hit left handed pitchers before he can take it to the next level.

He hit only .160 against lefties last year, which won't get it done.

Lots of runs, but whether they get to the WS and win it will depend on their starting pitching which at this point is a big question mark. Lots of potential but we shall have to wait and see.
