Coaches on buyouts will negotiate around that as well. That's how James Franklin will go somewhere and "earn" $250k his first season from his new gig.

(And really, there are clauses in buyouts ensuring that frankincense sign a $1 a year contract somewhere, but you get the picture.)

James Franklin got axed pretty quick. Maybe he should've tried covering up sexual abuse of minors by his assistant coaches? He'd have kept his job longer, for sure.

I'm flooding that mantra all season long. He is a high school senior+. His throws, decisions, and really all life choices at this point are rushed and do not come with the benefit of the wisdom of age.

Still gonna swear at the TV when he Matt Stafford's a throw underneath.

I abso-fuckin-loutely support Dan Dickerson. Accidents happen, no big deal at all.

Hell, prime Jim Price would've blow that microphone up by the 11th inning.

After calling 15 innings that ended the Tigers’ season, radio voice Dan Dickerson accidentally let his frustration slip into swearing on a hot mic.

He apologized the next day, and fans largely had his back.

Can Jake Rogers play left field? Asking for a friend.

Jahmai touched it out and kept playing even after his first social security checks came in. Love to see a guy power through.

Gleyber Torres will not be available for his next AB per Tigers media, as his contract has expired, and he is now a free agent.

Ok, figure on at least a two hour loadout from the park. 45 minutes to load the plane and get rolling.

The winner of this game gets to Toronto no earlier than 9 am Sunday.

It’s the 859th inning. I no longer recognize myself. I am convinced that I am living in a simulation. T-Mobile park is crumbling. Javy Baez retired in the 802nd inning. AJ Hinch died of natural causes in the 827th.

Werner Herzog is filming a documentary about my life. I beg him to kill me.

It’s the 437th inning of game 5 of the ALDS. I now have a big bushy beard. I have been fired from my job. My family has abandoned me. The Tigers have loaded the bases with no outs for 32 consecutive innings but have not scored a single run.

A flight to Toronto from Seattle is listed as just under 5 hours. The winner tonight might not celebrate in the clubhouse at this rate.
