Tigers’ 2023 payroll: More or less than last year?

Pinning down a precise payroll number isn’t easy and, for our purposes, isn’t terribly important, given that the Tigers won’t be anywhere near the luxury tax threshold. But we can fairly easily compare the Tigers’ payroll now to the obligations that existed at the start of last season. Here’s the nitty gritty on where the Tigers stand:Detroit Tigers pitcher Eduardo Rodriguez throws against the Kansas City Royals in the fourth inning of a baseball game in Detroit, Thursday, Sept. 29, 2022. Cabrera’s contract would also be calculated on the basis of average annual value ($31 million), which would “save” the Tigers’ $1 million for luxury tax purposes. Conversely, the average annual salary for Baez ($23.3 million) and Rodriguez ($15.4 million) would slightly increase the Tigers’ hypothetical luxury tax liability.

Tigers’ Daniel Norris getting another crack at free agency

Round 2 of free agency is approaching for left-handed pitcher Daniel Norris. Norris, 29, has now pitched in parts of eight seasons for the Tigers, who dealt him to the Brewers at the deadline in 2021. Norris and catcher Tucker Barnhart are the only two players on the Tigers’ big-league roster reaching free agency of their own accord, although several others could be cut loose in the next six weeks. Outfielder Robbie Grossman (traded) and right-handed pitcher Michael Pineda (released) would also be in line for traditional free agency if they were still around. For the Tigers, Norris started, worked as a long reliever and even performed some situational lefty duties.

Tigers make 2 deals, but little progress for 2023: Takeaways from MLB trade deadline

MINNEAPOLIS -- The Detroit Tigers made two deals in the 24 hours leading up to Tuesday’s MLB trade deadline. But it’s more likely rooted in a belief that the offseason is a better time than the trade deadline to address next year’s needs. The uncertainty surrounding Chafin’s contract in 2023 made it difficult for the Tigers to get full value in any trade. For days there was consternation among some fans that Avila and the Tigers would trade ace pitcher Tarik Skubal. The Tigers’ lack of action at the trade deadline can’t translate into to lack of action this winter.

Tigers fall to White Sox after costly error leads to 2 runs

CHICAGO -- Robbie Grossman’s first error since 2018 led to two unearned runs, giving the Chicago White Sox a come-from-behind 4-2 victory over the Detroit Tigers on Sunday afternoon at Guaranteed Rate Field. The Tigers (36-49) and White Sox (41-43) split the four-game series. Grossman’s streak -- the longest by an MLB position player in history -- was over, but the White Sox eighth inning was not. The White Sox tied the game at 2 in the sixth when Gavin Sheets hit a 422-bomb on a 3-2, 2-out pitch from Hutchison. He has been getting plenty of singles, as he entered the game hitting .302 since his last homer on May 15.

Akil Baddoo belongs back in Detroit. But where will he fit?

DETROIT -- The old Akil Baddoo appears to be back. The 23-year-old outfielder, who was an unexpected rookie phenom for the Detroit Tigers in 2021, got off to a miserable start in 2022. After being demoted to Triple-A Toledo nearly two months ago, Baddoo struggled through an illness, then injured his oblique. Meadows’ return would give the Tigers five outfielders, and make it even tougher to find an opening for Baddoo. Until then, the Tigers want Baddoo to keep making things difficult.

Tigers’ Robbie Grossman, finally hitting home runs, still has beef with Comerica Park

Grossman is not the first Tiger to criticize the spacious outfield of Comerica Park, and especially the 420 feet to the wall in center field. Struggling Tigers like Grossman may have felt that power outage more acutely by seeing so many fly balls die on the warning track at Comerica Park. After hitting a career-high 23 homers in 2021, Grossman couldn’t manage even one in 2022. Former Tiger Nick Castellanos famously declared Comerica Park “a joke” a few weeks before he was traded in 2019. And yet, contrary to all those complaints, the numbers show that Comerica Park is not a terrible place to hit.

The Tigers picked up two more in the fifth thanks largely to three walks by Texas pitching and a two-out, two-run bloop single by Spencer Torkelson. Tigers closer Gregory Soto, who had a blown save in the series opener on Thursday, pitched a 1-2-3 inning to finish the game.

Tigers’ future financial commitments through 2027

When the Detroit Tigers signed the veteran outfielder to a very modest two-year, $10 million contract last winter, it was the first time the Tigers were willing to make a multi-year commitment to a player -- any player -- in five years. But the Tigers got serious this winter, adding Rodriguez (five years, $77 million) and Baez (six years, $140 million) on big deals. The new players will boost the Tigers’ playoff chances in 2022, but will also make an impact on the payroll well into the future. The Tigers shed salary during the rebuilding process, but couldn’t get rid of their two biggest albatrosses. The Tigers will probably have a roughly league average payroll in 2022, not anywhere near a luxury tax penalty.

Tigers bet on Robbie Grossman with 2-year contract. Now it’s paying off big.

“I’m happy to be a Tiger. I’m happy to know where I’m living next year. I’m happy to know where I’m going to be in spring training, and I’m excited for 2022,” he said during a dugout interview last month before the final series of the regular season in Chicago. On a team that almost never drew walks, Grossman’s attention to the strike zone was just what the Tigers needed. Grossman turned 32 in September, but he’s already shown the ability to make an impact even in a “post-prime” year.

Tigers’ 2022 payroll outlook: Potentially tens of millions to spend?

Is it too much to ask the 2022 Tigers -- who hope to contend for the playoffs -- to equal the payroll of that woeful club? If the Tigers decide to shoot for the league average -- about $130 million or so -- they’d have $55 million to spend. And in the unlikely event that Ilitch decided to emulate his late father by putting the Tigers’ payroll among the highest in baseball -- about $200 million -- the Tigers could conceivably have $125 million to spend. Other considerations ($14 million)The Tigers are not expected to be close to the luxury tax threshold (and we don’t even know yet what the 2022 luxury tax threshold will be) so this is a moot point. But if you were calculating their total payroll for the purposes of the luxury tax you would add about $15 million in player benefits.
